More and more giant tech companies like Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ: AMZN), Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ: MSFT), and also Google (NASDAQ: GOOGL) have advised their employees to work remotely. As a result, a high number of people might be using the application which is a subscription-based per given time for a limited number of users.

However, the shares fell from trading at $160 down to $141 at the time of writing. The sudden fall has been attributed to some comments President Donald Trump made. He suggested that the U.S. workers should be given a chance to go back into their workplace and practice social distancing. In short, he suggested that companies should prepare to reopen and learn to control the virus while at work.

As a result, Zoom Communication shares dropped suddenly, but have since found a refuge awaiting further fundamentals to react on.
