Airbnb's shares have experienced a significant decline following a lowered revenue forecast for the third quarter, attributed to economic concerns and a reduction in booking windows. The company's shares fell by 13.38% on Wednesday, marking a 33.56% drop from its 52-week high and a 25% decline over the last month. Analysts at Citi and RBC Capital have responded by lowering their price targets for Airbnb to $135 and $120, respectively. Despite the downturn, institutional investors remained bullish buyers in the second quarter. CEO Brian Chesky expressed confidence in the company's prospects, although a related statement was later deleted.
