Why General Electric, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, and Red Robin Gourmet Burgers Slumped Today

Wednesday was an interesting day on Wall Street, with most major benchmarks finishing the session in the green even after having seen early declines. The Dow Jones Industrial Averagehad been down triple digits at various points, but favorable news from the Federal Reserve's Open Market Committee suggested that future interest rate increases will continue to come at a slow and manageable pace.

General Electric (NYSE: GE), Hewlett-Packard Enterprise (NYSE: HPE), and Red Robin Gourmet Burgers (NASDAQ: RRGB)were among the worst performers on the day. Here's why they did so poorly.
