What happened Shares of fresh-food delivery company Blue Apron (NYSE: APRN) fell as much as 17% on Tuesday. The stock is down about 15% at the time of this writing. It's not clear exactly what's causing the large sell-off. But Blue Apron CEO Matt Salzberg and CFO Brad Dickerson notably participated in the RBC Capital Markets 2017 Technology, Internet, Media, and Telecommunications Conference in New York on Tuesday morning, so the stock's pullback could reflect reactions to management commentary during the event.

But Needham maintained a buy rating for the stock. So what Blue Apron stock's decline on Tuesday adds to a recent bearish decline for the stock. Shares are down about 67% year to date, and more than 30% in the last five days alone. Tuesday's sell-off could simply be an extension of this downward trend. Now what Blue Apron says it will post a replay of its participation in RBC Capital Markets' conference on its investor relations website.
