Walgreens Boots Alliance (WBA) showed a weak performance in the market with its stock value plunging in June and received a consensus rating of “Reduce” from analysts. The company was the subject of multiple analyst downgrades that significantly impacted its trade and several investment firms increased their holdings in WBA. In the meantime, WBA announced significant leadership appointments while facing challenges amid retail transformation efforts. Unfortunately, WBA's Q3 2024 earnings were lower than estimates, lowering investor confidence along with the firm's stock price. There were also reports of negotiations to sell Cencora shares for $400 million to increase proceeds and an attempt to sell the entire company for £7 billion. Challenges for the company further escalated as its fiscal 2024 earnings announced for March 28 disappointed investors. On a more positive note, WBA made strides in improving diversity in clinical trials, honoring veterans, launching gene and cell services, and focusing on improving health in communities.
