This feels material, which is why I’m surprised there’s 0 movement in their stock price after hours. Why do you think that is?

Stock markets very rarely care about security, unless it's somehow front page news.

  • Investors would care if they thought Zoom’s customers cared enough to switch. I personally think this is terrible, but investors don’t seem to think Zoom’s customers care enough to change to a competitor, which makes me second guess whether or not this is actually a big deal to large customers.

    • my guess is this is of 0 importance to the stock market and large customers.

      almost all video communications software works similarly to zoom, so that's that.

  • Tavis Ormandy joked about buying those dips because of this and I really don't think either of you are wrong and I might start doing it myself.

If a company’s stock drops after a major vulnerability, you should buy. Equifax exposed everyone’s financial data and their stock is back above their pre-breach price.
