ScanSource, TaskUs, WEBTOON, Xerox, and Zebra Shares Are Falling, What You Need To Know

What Happened?

A number of stocks fell in the afternoon session after a dismal February jobs report revealed an unexpected drop in employment, fueling concerns about the health of the economy. 

The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported a loss of 92,000 nonfarm payroll jobs, a stark contrast to economists' forecasts which had anticipated a gain. The unemployment rate also edged up to 4.4%. Adding to the bleak picture, employment data for December and January was revised down by a combined 69,000, suggesting the labor market was weaker than previously understood. This report, described by an analyst as a "knock-down blow," indicates that economic weakness is widespread, with job losses occurring in nearly every sector. Such data can signal a potential economic slowdown, which typically leads to lower corporate earnings and reduced consumer spending, rattling investor confidence across the market.

The stock market overreacts to news, and big price drops can present good opportunities to buy high-quality stocks.

Zooming In On Xerox (XRX)

Xerox’s shares are extremely volatile and have had 53 moves greater than 5% over the last year. In that context, today’s move indicates the market considers this news meaningful but not something that would fundamentally change its perception of the business.

The previous big move we wrote about was about 22 hours ago when the stock gained 7.1% on the news that the company expanded its unified market approach following its acquisition of Lexmark, a move aimed at driving growth. Xerox brought the Xerox and Lexmark sales teams together to offer a more integrated portfolio of products and services. This integration gave legacy Xerox clients and partners worldwide access to the Lexmark® 9-Series line of printers, expanding the company's A3 platform. Jacques-Edouard Gueden, Xerox's chief revenue officer, called the move a "meaningful step forward" in the company's operations. He added that aligning the teams behind a unified model strengthened reliability and long-term value for clients. This action was part of the company's "Reinvention" plan, which focused on simplifying its core business to foster sustainable growth.

Xerox is down 30.3% since the beginning of the year, and at $1.72 per share, it is trading 74.2% below its 52-week high of $6.65 from July 2025. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Xerox’s shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $64.23.
