Stocks Drop As Trade War Escalates: What's Driving Markets Tuesday?

Best Buy Co., Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BBY#NYSE">BBY</a>) CEO Corie Barry said on Tuesday's earnings call that President Donald Trump's tariffs will increase prices for consumers and have implications<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/03/44108638/best-buy-q4-earnings-sales-dip-solid-computing-demand-dividend-hike-and-more"> for the entire industry.</a> 
What To Know: Barry said China and Mexico are the company's top two sources, respectively, and the newly imposed tariffs are going to raise costs for retailers, leading to higher prices for consumers.&nbsp;
"We expect our vendors across our entire assortment will pass along some level of tariff costs to retailers, making price increases for American consumers highly likely," Barry said on the call.&nbsp;
Read More: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/03/44110273/trump-tariffs-will-raise-prices-within-days-target-ceo-says">Trump Tariffs Will Raise Prices &#8216;Within Days,&#8217; Target CEO Says</a>
The CEO estimated that a 10% tariff on China would decrease comparable sales by 1%, but that a 20% tariff wouldn't necessarily result in a 2% reduction. He also warned that the implications of tariffs will be felt throughout the industry.&nbsp;&nbsp;
"We've never seen this kind of breadth of tariffs, and this of course impacts the whole industry. So it's not just a Best Buy question, it is a broad industry question. And I say that because that makes the estimation of the impact all the harder," Barry said.
"This is bigger than just a discussion about tariffs. It's just kind of a volatile environment for the consumer," Barry said.&nbsp;
Looking Ahead: Best Buy issued a weak earnings outlook for<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/03/b44104493/best-buy-reports-fourth-quarter-results"> fiscal 2026</a> with its midpoint below analyst estimates, due in part to declining comparable sales and a cautious consumer. The company also pointed out that its guidance did include impacts from current or proposed tariffs.&nbsp;
"The giant wild card here, obviously, is how the consumers are going to react to the price increases, in light of a lot of price increases potentially throughout the year and a general consumer confidence that is showing a little signs of weakness at the moment," Best Buy CFO Matt Bilunas said on the call.
BBY Price Action: According to data from <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw">Benzinga Pro</a>, Best Buy shares are down 14.9% at $73.74 amid broad market declines after tariffs went into effect Tuesday.

In the fourth quarter of FY25, the company returned a total of $415 million to shareholders through dividends of $200 million and share repurchases of $215 million.
The company&#8217;s board of directors approved a 1% increase in the regular quarterly dividend to $0.95 per share.&nbsp;The regular quarterly dividend will be payable on April 15 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on March 25.
&#8220;I am pleased to report better-than-expected sales for the fourth quarter driven by strong growth in computing as well as improved sales performance in other categories,&#8221; said Corie Barry, Best Buy CEO.
Outlook: Best Buy sees FY26 adjusted EPS of $6.20 &#8211; $6.60 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance">versus the estimate of $6.55.</a>
Best Buy expects FY26 revenue of $41.4 billion &#8211; $42.2 billion versus an estimate of $41.82 billion. The company expects comparable sales of 0.0% to 2.0% and capital expenditures of $700 million &#8211; $750 million.
The company&#8217;s FY26 guidance does not include the impact of recently implemented or proposed tariffs. The company expects to spend approximately $300 million on share repurchases during FY26.
Matt Bilunas, Best Buy CFO, said, &#8220;As we enter FY26, we believe consumer behavior will be largely similar to last year – remaining resilient but still dealing with high inflation that is driving expenses up across their lives, making them value focused and thoughtful about big ticket purchases..This leads to our comparable sales guide in the range of flat to&nbsp;2%&nbsp;growth for the year, with growth weighted more to the second half of the year based on the timing of product launches and initiatives.&#8221;
For the first quarter of FY26, the company expects comparable sales to be slightly down to last year and adjusted operating income rate to be approximately&nbsp;3.4%.
Price Action: BBY shares are trading lower by 5.52% at $81.95 in premarket at last check Tuesday.

Shares of retail, e-commerce and discretionary stocks are trading lower amid overall market uncertainty after president Trump confirmed Mar 4 tariffs, which could affect supply chains and consumer spending.

Retailer Best Buy Co, Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BBY#NYSE">BBY</a>) could show the growing competition from ecommerce against its physical stores when the company reports fourth-quarter financial results before<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings"> market open Tuesday.</a>
Here are the earnings estimates, what analysts are saying ahead of the report and key items to watch.
Earnings Estimates: Analysts expect Best Buy to report fourth-quarter revenue of $13.70 billion, down from $14.65 billion in last year's fourth quarter according to data <a href="https://bzresearch.myclickfunnels.com/benzinga-pro-content-webinar-registration/?utm_source=BZprocontent030325&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1">from Benzinga Pro.</a>
The company missed analyst estimates for revenue in the last quarter, while beating estimates in six of the last 10 quarters overall.
Analysts expect Best Buy to report fourth-quarter earnings per share of $2.40, down from $2.72 in last year's fourth quarter. The company missed analyst estimates for earnings per share in the last quarter, while beating estimates in nine of the last 10 quarters overall.

What Analysts Are Saying: Truist analyst Scot Ciccarelli predicts Best Buy&#8217;s quarterly sales will likely be in line with or down from estimates.
"Sales surged around Christmas and then faded hard in January," Ciccarelli said data predicts.
The analyst, who has a Hold rating and $95 price target, said Best Buy's first quarter is currently trailing expectations.
Ciccarelli said Best Buy's Enterprise division could see gross margin expansion in the quarter driven by Services and membership profitability.
"While comps are generally expected to turn + in 25 given multiple years of easy comparisons and the natural replacement cycle of CE goods, we suspect the company will remain cautious in its outlook given what appears to be a soft start in 1Q," Ciccarelli said.
The analyst said consumers are demanding value and shying away from big-ticket purchases.
"We believe that current trends and historical valuation likely limit significant incremental appreciation in the stock, unless there is a substantial upward revision in earnings."
Wedbush analyst Seth Basham said Best Buy should report a "solid quarter," but worries about the company's guidance.
"We expect a good quarter on the back of a favorable holiday shopping season and conservative guidance, but we expect soft 2025 guidance given macro uncertainties and high exposure to tariffs," Basham said.
The analyst, who has a Neutral rating and $90 price target, said Best Buy's first quarter is off to a mixed start, which could be bad during a current consumer electronics replacement and innovation cycle.
"FY 25 outlook likely below consensus given macro uncertainties and tariffs."
The analyst said tariffs and "political uncertainties" will weigh on consumers and could impact spending.
"Tariffs present downside risk."
Key Items to Watch: A Placer.ai <a href="https://www.placer.ai/blog/best-buy-fully-charged-for-2025">report </a>showed Best Buy foot traffic down 7% year-over-year in 2024. While analysts cite a soft start to the first quarter, Placer.ai shows a comeback in traffic starting in early 2025, with January visits up 0.4% year-over-year.
Black Friday and the holiday shopping season will likely be a big theme for Best Buy's results and commentary. The Placera.ai report showed Best Buy's visits up 473.1% on Black Friday compared to the company's daily average.
An Adobe <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42265010/amazon-and-walmart-dominate-black-friday-as-online-sales-soar-146">holiday shopping report</a> showed Best Buy having flat Black Friday sales on a year-over-year basis, citing losing market share to ecommerce players and a continued shift away from physical retail sales on the annual shopping holiday.

Wedbush Reiterates Neutral on Best Buy Co, Maintains $90 Price Target

Best Buy Co., Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BBY#NYSE">BBY</a>) will release its fourth-quarter financial results, before the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/BBY/earnings">opening bell, on Tuesday, March 4</a>.
Analysts expect the Richfield, Minnesota-based company to report quarterly earnings at $2.41 per share, down from $2.72 per share in the year-ago period. Best Buy projects quarterly revenue of $13.7 billion, compared to $14.65 billion a year earlier, according to data from <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>.
On Feb. 27, Telsey Advisory Group analyst Joseph Feldman maintained Best Buy with an Outperform and maintained a $110 price target.
With the recent buzz around Best Buy, some investors may be eyeing potential gains from the company's dividends too. As of now, Best Buy offers an annual dividend yield of 4.18%, which is a quarterly dividend amount of 94 cents per share ($3.76 a year). &nbsp;
So, how can investors exploit its dividend yield to pocket a regular $500 monthly?
To earn $500 per month or $6,000 annually from dividends alone, you would need an investment of approximately $143,496 or around 1,596 shares. For a more modest $100 per month or $1,200 per year, you would need $28,681 or around 319 shares.
To calculate: Divide the desired annual income ($6,000 or $1,200) by the dividend ($3.76 in this case). So, $6,000 / $3.76 = 1,596 ($500 per month), and $1,200 / $3.76 = 319 shares ($100 per month).
Note that dividend yield can change on a rolling basis, as the dividend payment and the stock price both fluctuate over time.
How that works: The dividend yield is computed by dividing the annual dividend payment by the stock&#8217;s current price.
For example, if a stock pays an annual dividend of $2 and is currently priced at $50, the dividend yield would be 4% ($2/$50). However, if the stock price increases to $60, the dividend yield drops to 3.33% ($2/$60). Conversely, if the stock price falls to $40, the dividend yield rises to 5% ($2/$40).
Similarly, changes in the dividend payment can impact the yield. If a company increases its dividend, the yield will also increase, provided the stock price stays the same. Conversely, if the dividend payment decreases, so will the yield.
BBY Price Action: Shares of Best Buy gained 1.5% to close at $89.91 on Friday.
