What Is The Market Telling Us
Rogers’s shares are somewhat volatile and have had 14 moves greater than 5% over the last year. In that context, today’s move indicates the market considers this news meaningful but not something that would fundamentally change its perception of the business.
The previous big move we wrote about was 20 days ago when the stock dropped 3% on the news that President Donald Trump threatened to significantly increase tariffs on Chinese imports, reigniting trade war fears. The threat immediately broke a monthslong calm on Wall Street, sending the S&P 500 down 1.2% in its worst session since August. For the industrial sector, which is heavily reliant on global supply chains, the prospect of new tariffs is particularly concerning. Aggressive U.S. trade policies lead to unpredictable input costs and disrupt manufacturing operations. This volatility weighs heavily on companies that depend on a stable international trade for both sourcing materials and selling finished goods, leading to a broad sell-off among industrial giants.
Rogers is down 6.9% since the beginning of the year, and at $92.10 per share, it is trading 18.2% below its 52-week high of $112.62 from November 2024. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Rogers’s shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $759.73.
