Zscaler plunges 31% on terrible guidance — short the broken cybersecurity stock

Cybersecurity company Zscaler saw its stock crater 31% after reporting earnings and issuing a cautious outlook while also shaking up its sales team.

Idea

When a high-flying tech stock drops over 30% in a single day on poor guidance and internal restructuring, it often signals a prolonged period of weakness. Institutional investors typically take time to unwind large positions, and the negative sentiment can create a cloud over the stock for weeks. Betting against the stock or avoiding the 'falling knife' is often the safest play until a clear bottom forms.
