These marketplaces for used items have gotten very popular in recent year and seems to fit with many people's desire to live a more sustainable lifestyle by minimizing waste. Poshmark also offers 'social commerce' features that have been successful in boosting retention and engagement.
Stock Price Outlook
Poshmark is certainly an intriguing company that should be on investors' radars. The company's stock price has been weak since its IPO due to general market conditions and potentially some profit-taking.
However, the company is one of the leaders in its niche, and marketplace stocks have a good track record of success given the potential for growth and high margins. Once, market conditions improve for growth stocks, then Poshmark has many of the characteristics of an outperforming stock.
