What To Know: In its second-quarter financial results, released last week, Beyond Meat reported a revenue decline of 8.8% year-over-year.
But the company managed to beat Wall Street expectations with $93.2 million in revenue compared to the expected $87.81 million. 
However, the plant-based, vegan meat company reported a slightly larger-than-expected adjusted loss of 53 cents per share, missing estimates of a 51-cent loss.
CEO Ethan Brown expressed optimism, highlighting the company&#8217;s progress in 2024 as a pivotal year toward sustainable operations and profitability. Beyond Meat ended the quarter with $158 million in cash but also reported $1.1 billion in total outstanding debt as of June 29.

Additionally, the stock has caught the attention of options traders, with significant bullish activity spotted. Although analysts remain cautious, with BMO Capital lowering the price target from $9 to $6, the options market has shown a split sentiment, with 50% bullish and 41% bearish trades.

Wall Street Poised For Second Day Of Gains While Bank Of Japan Makes Reassurances; Dollar Strengthens Against Yen, Crude Prices Surge: What's Driving Markets Wednesday?

Wall Street could go from strength to strength as the index futures point to another session in the green as investors seek to put the worst behind. Volatility continued to drop, as evidenced by another sharp slide in the CBOE Volatility Index, which is now approaching pre-sell-off levels. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/08/40213937/why-ai-server-maker-super-micro-computers-stock-is-plummeting-over-12-in-premarket">Earnings news of the day has been mixed,</a> with the Dow Jones Industrials likely to take a hit from negative reactions to earnings reports from Walt Disney Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>) and Amgen, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMGN#NASDAQ">AMGN</a>).
Super Micro Computer, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>) may weigh down on AI-levered stocks as traders sold the AI server maker due to margin contraction. That said, the broader sentiment appears to be positive as traders pile into beaten-down stocks to position themselves for a strong rebound they factor in for later this year.

Cues From Last Session:
Stocks rebounded from multi-week lows and launched into a rally as traders scrambled to pick bargains across sectors. The market slowly got over the trauma inflicted by weakening domestic economic fundamentals and the selling set in motion by the unwinding of the yen carry trades.
The major averages opened mostly lower and saw some indecision in early trading. They took off, benefiting from across-the-board buying, and hovered in positive territory all through the remainder of the session. The gains were led by real-estate stocks. 
Small-caps outperformed their bigger peers, with the Russell 2,000 Index ending 1.23% higher for the day.

<figcaption class="wp-element-caption"> Insights From Analysts: Following Tuesday&#8217;s comeback, Fund Strat said the rebound by equities is very constructive and strongly supports the idea the &#8216;worst of the selling is behind us,&#8217; according to excerpts of the note shared on X, formerly Twitter. Tom Lee, Head Of Research at the firm, said in a separate post that it was a &#8220;rough 3 days of relentless selling but instead of breaking equity markets, VIX falling, BOJ pausing hikes, stocks finding footing.&#8221; &#8220;Seems more &#8216;growth scare&#8217; not calamity.&#8221; George Smith, portfolio strategist at LPL Financial, said dips, pullbacks and corrections of 10% or more are a &#8220;normal and healthy part of any bull market.&#8221; Falling back on historical data, Smith noted that on average, stocks experience a pullback of over 5% over three times per year and a correction of 10% or more around once per year, even in positive years. &#8220;We believe that how common these occurrences are should provide comfort to equity investors, allowing them to be patient, stay invested, and most importantly, to not panic,&#8221; he added. Upcoming Economic Data: The Energy Information Administration will release its weekly petroleum status report at 10:30 a.m. EDT. The Federal Reserve is scheduled to release its report on June consumer credit at 3 p.m. EDT. Economists, on average, expect the outstanding consumer credit to decline from $11.3 billion in May to $9.7 billion in June.

Beyond Meat Debuts "Beyond Sun Sausage", Exclusively At Sprouts Farmers Market Stores Nationwide

Beyond Meat, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYND#NASDAQ">BYND</a>) shares are trading lower on Monday on continued weakness after it was reported late last week that the company&#8217;s liquidity position had deteriorated <a href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/beyond-meat-engages-bondholders-for-restructuring-talks-7de6b8ae?mod=Searchresults_pos1&amp;page=1">caused the stock to drop</a>.
What To Know: The report also suggested that the company reached out to a group of bondholders to start discussions about restructuring its balance sheet.
Last Thursday, the company&#8217;s stock was trading around $6.20. As of Monday morning, the stock is trading at $5.80. The current trading price is at the bottom of its 52 week range of $5.58 to $17.96 and below its 50 day moving average of $7.08.
Beyond Meat is anticipated to release quarterly financial earnings on August 5. Analysts estimate a loss of 51 cents per share and revenue of $87.80 million.
How To Buy Beyond Meat Shares
By now you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for Beyond Meat (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYND#NASDAQ">BYND</a>) &#8211; be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy ‘fractional shares,' which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share. For example, some stock, like Berkshire Hathaway, or Amazon.com, can cost thousands of dollars to own just one share. However, if you only want to invest a fraction of that, brokerages will allow you to do so. 
In the the case of Beyond Meat (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYND#NASDAQ">BYND</a>), which is trading at $5.8 as of publishing time, $100 would buy you 17.24 shares of stock.
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to ‘go short' a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading &#8211; either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.

What's Going On With Beyond Meat Stock Monday?

Beyond Meat: In Spite Of Improving Gross Margins, There's Little To Cheer Here

<a href="https://investorplace.com">InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice &amp; Trading Tips</a>
A few years ago, venture capital poured a lot of money into the plant-based foods market. 



At the time, the possibilities seemed bright. Particularly with younger more health-conscious consumers, it seemed like &ldquo;better for you&rdquo; foods could take major market share.



However, fast-forward to 2024, and adoption has been much slower than anticipated. Major fast-food chains have started to <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-06-26/mcdonald-s-says-plant-based-test-in-two-key-us-cities-failed">give up on vegan burgers</a> after unsuccessful product tests, and sales momentum has slowed at grocery stores as well.



Be it the high cost of plant-based foods in these inflationary times, perceived inferior taste and texture, or simply consumer indifference, plant-based foods have failed to revolutionize the packaged foods industry so far. These three plant-based <a href="https://investorplace.com/industries/consumer-staples/food/">food stocks</a> to sell are in particular trouble.



<h2>Beyond Meat (BYND)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/bynd1600-1-1-300x169.png" alt="Editorial photo on Beyond Meat (BYND) theme. Illustrative photo for news about Beyond Meat - a producer of plant-based meat substitutes. BYND stock"><div>Source: photo_gonzo / Shutterstock.com</div></div>Beyond Meat (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/bynd-stock-quote/">BYND</a>) stock is back on traders&rsquo; radars. Last week, shares popped from around $5.25 to more than $6/share following the company&rsquo;s <a href="https://investorplace.com/earning-results/2024/08/bynd-stock-earnings-beyond-meat-for-q2-of-2024/">earnings report</a>. That&rsquo;s not too unusual.



What happened next, however, was bizarre. On Friday, shares with no reported news skyrocketed from $6 to $9 within an hour. Almost as soon as it happened, it was over. BYND stock crashed back to $6.39 by the end of the day and closed the session in the red despite the earlier 40% rally.



Beyond Meat&rsquo;s earnings weren&rsquo;t awful &mdash; the company shrunk its operating loss, and results were roughly in line with expectations. However, the business continues to shrink. Revenues of $93.2 million fell sharply year-over-year from 2023&rsquo;s $102.2 million over the same period.



Even in a time of elevated inflation, Beyond Meat seems unable to increase product pricing without losing customer interest. This speaks to a weak brand struggling to hold shelf space in a crowded protein marketplace.



BYND stock has been volatile recently. However, the business&rsquo; trajectory continues to be steadily downward and traders should get off this ride while they can.



<h2>Oatly (OTLY)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/otly-1600-300x169.jpg" alt="otly stock Rolled oats or oat flakes in bowl with wooden spoons"><div>Source: Vladislav Noseek / Shutterstock.com</div></div>One of the most active parts of the alternative food space has been in the race to supplant cow&rsquo;s milk. In recent years, we&rsquo;ve seen strong marketing drives behind almond, soy, rice, coconut, hemp and pea milks.



And that&rsquo;s even before getting to Oatly (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/otly-stock-quote/">OTLY</a>) and its oat-based alternative. The company was founded in the 1990s and markets itself as the original oat drink superior to animal-based milks. However, its nutritional data shows that Oatly contains much more sugar than protein, leading some nutritionists to question how much healthier oat drinks are versus cow milk.



In any case, Oatly has struggled to find a consistent market. In 2021, the company announced big partnerships, such as bringing Oatly to Starbucks (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/sbux-stock-quote/">SBUX</a>) stores nationwide.



However, the firm&rsquo;s revenue growth dramatically tailed off in 2022. Meanwhile, it continues to run massive operating losses. Oat milk has to compete with all the other plant-based milk within the oat space versus cheaper store-branded alternatives. All this makes Oatly&rsquo;s future incredibly challenging.



<h2>Calavo Growers (CVGW)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/calavo-cvgw-1600-300x169.jpg" alt="Calavo Growers branded Mexican avocados in a supermarket in New York"><div>Source: rblfmr / Shutterstock.com</div></div>Unlike the other two names here, Calavo Growers (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/cvgw-stock-quote/">CVGW</a>) isn&rsquo;t quite a pure-play plant-based foods stock. The company wasn&rsquo;t created to displace an existing animal food commodity.



That said, Calavo&rsquo;s core market, avocados, has emerged as a leading health food item&mdash;particularly for younger consumers. It&rsquo;s no coincidence that avocado toast became the touchstone item for what millennial eaters were spending their incomes on.



In any case, Calavo&rsquo;s avocados and other fresh fruits and vegetables are a nice alternative for folks looking to reduce or entirely stop their consumption of animal foods.



Unfortunately, a good nutritious trend isn&rsquo;t necessarily a good investment. CVGW stock has slumped in recent years amid disruptions in a key avocado-growing region of Mexico. These issues appear to be <a href="https://nypost.com/2024/07/02/us-news/mexican-cartel-violence-could-drive-up-prices-of-avocados-in-the-us/">getting worse</a>, not better, which could further hamper Calavo&rsquo;s profit margins.



Calavo&rsquo;s revenues slumped from $1.19 billion in 2022 to an estimated $644 million this year, a massive decline. Thus, CVGW stock looks like a value trap, given the uncertainty in its business model and issues in the avocado supply chain.
