Here is what Claret Asset Management has to say about Poshmark, Inc. (NASDAQ:POSH) in its Q3 2022 investor letter:

“For whatever reason, the stock market seems to always precede the economic reality: Poshmark, a social commerce marketplace, went public at US$42 in January 2022, started trading at over $100, and dove from the high to less than $10 in June 2022. The company just agreed to sell itself to the Korean company Naver for $17.90 or less than 43% than the price it was sold to the public 9 months ago. We have to presume it was the company’s only chance for survival.”
