    What is Happening?

    On February 15, the company posted its Q4 and fiscal 2021 financial results but those were not solely responsible for YNDX’s uptrend since then. The company’s earnings were a disaster and showed a huge decline. From a net income in 2020, the company’s earnings turned to a loss in 2021. Moreover, news regarding the Russia-Ukraine conflict also emerged on the same day. According to reports, Russia was said to have started calling some of its troops back from the Ukrainian border.
