LULULEMON ATHLETICA INC shares tumbled 18% to an eight-year low on Friday after cutting its annual forecast, fanning worries of a prolonged overhaul. The drop erases about $2.5 billion in market value, extending the stock's decline this year to 52%. Incoming leadership faces waning demand for core leggings and stiff competition from newer rivals.
