The stock is up 10% YTD. I'd take a basket of stocks that do that well over time and beat about 90% of mutual funds...
 
So, still down 5% since August. Not a huge hit, but not great. I wonder how much of it has to really do with the boycott, though.

Since August? That's well before any announcement about their bathroom policies.

No big deal, but looks like Breitbart got the month wrong in the original story and corrected it. Should have been April 19, not August 19, and that's how the story now reads. On August 19th the stock price was 80.87.
 
Silliness. Come back in 6 - 12 months... and let's see what the performance looks like.

Then maybe you should do some fact checking on such things instead of simply believing them, especially if it's something you should know is off given the context.

As has been pointed out, the OP had the wrong month (which most people probably noticed reading it), and basing market analysis on such a small span of time and contributing any fluctuations to a single thing, even if saying that thing was the main cause, is showing ignorance of the market.
