Zscaler crashes 31% on terrible guidance and sales shakeup — short the continued fallout

Zscaler, a major cybersecurity company, just had its worst trading day ever — falling 31% after warning that sales would slow down and shaking up its leadership team.

Idea

Zscaler lost nearly a third of its value in a single day after management issued cautious guidance and restructured its sales organization — both signs that the business is struggling internally. The stock has already been cut in half over the past year, meaning confidence was already low before this blowup. When a stock drops this violently on heavy volume, it often keeps bleeding for days as analysts downgrade and institutional investors reduce positions. A tight trailing stop protects against a sharp bounce-back, which can happen after big drops.
