Harley-Davidson Stock (HOG) dropped by 6.45% from $28.82 to $26.96 in the trading on Thursday October 26, 2023. The reason why HOG stock down today is due to its third-quarter results. Harley-Davidson’s third-quarter profit missed estimates and sales plunged amid elevated borrowing costs in the US and economic weakness around the globe.

• Earnings of $1.38 a share, missing the $1.40 average of analysts’ estimates. Revenue from motorcycles and related products fell 9% from a year ago to $1.3 billion, below expectations.
• Operating income at Harley’s financial services arm fell 27% from a year ago as higher borrowing costs and credit losses eroded earnings.
• Retail motorcycle sales tumbled 15% in Harley’s core North America market in the third quarter. Sales dropped in every other region, contributing to a 16% decline worldwide.
• Consumer discretionary spending: The more alarming thing is about consumer discretionary spending. Many people finance a motorcycle purchase but higher interest rates are causing people to pull back.
