WHR Stock Recent News

Here are some of the major companies whose stocks moved on the week's news.

Shares in domestic appliance company Whirlpool (WHR -0.98%) slumped by more than 16% in the week to Friday morning. The move comes after the company released its second-quarter earnings on Tuesday.

CELZ, GRFS and WHR have been added to the Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell) List on July 31, 2025.

Three Fortune 500 Industry Leaders—Energy Transfer, Verizon, and World Kinect—currently meet the ideal 'dogcatcher' standard for fair-priced, safer dividend stocks. Analyst projections suggest the top ten F500IL 'dogs' could yield 15.1% to 34.8% net gains by July 2026, with lower-than-market volatility. Most high-yield F500IL stocks remain overpriced, but a market correction or dividend increases could bring more into ideal buy territory.

Despite an epic sell-off in April, the S&P 500 (^GSPC -0.30%) recovered and rose 5.5% in the first half of 2025. It's a decent performance considering the index has averaged a 12.2% annual gain over the last decade.

Whirlpool appears to be a value trap despite its relatively low valuation, as structural issues overshadow cyclical challenges. Revenues and cash flows are deteriorating, with 2025 sales down further after a multiyear decline, now at levels last seen 20 years ago. Chinese competitors like Haier and Midea are gaining rapid market share, growing sales and profitability, while Whirlpool struggles.
