Vertiv Holdings Co (VRT): one to watch?

Interesting — the drop looks like a valuation reset after a beat-and-raise quarter, not a broken business, but the stock is still pricey.

Why VRT dropped

Vertiv actually beat earnings and raised full-year guidance, but Q2 revenue came in slightly below Wall Street's expectations due to project/shipment timing delays (not lost demand), and after the stock had already rallied roughly 67% this year, that small miss was enough to trigger a sharp "sell the news" reaction.
