The Street is unclear on how to value Zoom as its growth slows with people returning to offices and schools, despite the lingering pandemic. So the only course of action right now it seems — sell Zoom’s stock (ZM) and wait for more stable waters. “We are wary of a potential demotion for Zoom from hyper-growth to growth at a reasonable price,” said Citi analyst Tyler Radke, following Zoom’s underwhelming second quarter results Monday evening.

There really is no way to draw a direct correlation between this taxing NBA campaign — a shortened offseason, condensed schedule and COVID protocols that further limited preparation throughout — and the rash of injuries to star players that has impacted these playoffs.
