Beyond Meat jumps despite earnings miss and job cuts
Shares of plant-based meat company Beyond Meat (BYND 4.13%) skyrocketed on Friday despite the disappointing numbers it put up for the second quarter. The broader market was trading lower during the session, analysts cut their price targets for Beyond Meat stock, and the company announced layoffs. Yet even with all of those things working against it, Beyond Meat was still up by a whopping 25.4% as of 1:30 p.m. ET. And short interest might have something to do with that bounce.
