Here's how Carvana went from Wall Street darling to what some analysts are saying could be the edge of bankruptcy.

is a used car retailer that lets customers find, tour, buy and finance vehicles completely online. The company then delivers the vehicles straight to a customer's home or allows them to pick up their purchase from one of Carvana's 33 fully-automated car vending machines.

It's a business model that helped propel the company to new heights during the coronavirus pandemic. Supply chain problems choked the production of new vehicles, social distancing measures made Carvana's online-only car buying experience desirable, government stimulus programs gave consumers extra cash to spend and rock-bottom interest rates encouraged them to do just that.

In the summer of 2021, Carvana celebrated its first profitable quarter. On Aug. 10, of last year, Carvana's stock reached its all-time intraday high of $376.83 a share.

I’m curious today

How can CNBC still allow Cramer to screw investors. CVNA and NVDA have a lot of the same letters in their stock symbol

Boycott Tesla

This App based business will make thousand lose their jobs.

What happened? Did Cramer label them a ‘buy’?

Carvana is another example of inflated valuations brought back down to Earth by market correction and recession. I wrote about this recently in reference to supplychain in retail returns, but many of the same economic premises apply here.

That's great news thank you for sharing all the information

1. They assume people want to buy former rental cars, 2. Assume people won’t spend 10 minutes shopping around…on-line, 3. Assume a big coin in a vending machine outweighs overpaying for a car… It’s a junk model and company that need to die.

Always inverse Kramer

Cramer recommendation?

I miss Shepard Smith. That was the best thing CNBC did, have him on. You are a nothing network....

About time for that company or multiple way out of sorts!

Gas prices haven’t been this low since July 2021. $4.69/gallon for me yesterday. Hogwash! That is only a year back. Cannot call that such a drop in price!
