Shares of Xpeng Inc (XPEV) dropped by 6.67% from $17.39 to $16.23 in the trading on Thursday, Novemeber 16, 2023. The reason why XPEV is down today is due to economic impact and mixed Q3 earnings.

• Economic influence: Broader economic factors played a pivotal role in the stock's decline. The Dow Jones Industrial Average faced a decrease following the release of higher-than-expected initial jobless claims data. The Labor Department reported a rise in first-time jobless claims to 231,000, surpassing expectations of 222,000 and increasing from the previous week's 217,000. Despite this, there was an unexpected improvement in the Philadelphia Fed manufacturing index, which recorded a reading of -5.9 in November compared to October's -9.0, defying expectations of a further decrease to -11.0. These economic fluctuations contributed to the decline in XPEV's stock.
• Mixed Q3 earnings: Xpeng reported mixed results for the third quarter, with some positive and negative aspects. While the company nearly doubled its revenue forecast for the final quarter of 2023, it also reported a wider-than-expected loss. Negative gross margins continued to be a concern, although there was a slight improvement from the previous quarter. XPEV's struggle with increased competition in the electric vehicle (EV) market, particularly from players like Tesla , which has been aggressively reducing prices, contributed to concerns among investors. The ongoing price war in the Chinese EV market has further pressured margins and created uncertainty in the sector.
