Warner Music Group (WMG) sank to another all-time low on Wednesday, despite a broader gain on the Dow. At the bell, shares of WMG slumped 2.48 percent to $2.36, based on a potent mix of fundamental issues and broader market fear. That beats an earlier low of $2.40, established November 17th, though midday trading suggests potentially lower valuations ahead. Shortly after markets started trading, Warner slipped to just $2, an nadir unthinkable just months ago.
On a broader scale, Wall Street notched upward on Wednesday, though the Dow is still recovering from a near-700 point drop on Monday. A continued flurry of negative news continued to slap traders, though a flicker of optimism produced a modest gain. By the bell, the DJIA inched upward 2.05 percent, or 172.60 points, to land at 8,591.69.
Elsewhere, music stocks were mixed. Apple (AAPL) climbed 3.71 percent to $95.90; The Orchard (ORCD) gained 2.08 percent to $2.45; Ticketmaster Entertainment (TKTM) dropped a penny to $4.02; Live Nation (LYV) gained 9.71 percent to $4.18; and Sirius XM Radio (SIRI) shed 3.46 percent to a lowly 17 cents.
