Five Below (FIVE) has asked its vendors to suspend cargo shipments from China, Bloomberg reported Friday, citing a memo sent to vendors by A.P. Moller-Maersk on behalf of Five Below.
The company's shares slumped as much as 10% after Maersk sent the letter to vendors. The stock was still down nearly 9% in recent trading.
The discount retail chain's move follows the tariff war between the US and China, where US tariffs on China are now around 145%.
The news outlet could not ascertain if the memo went to select Five Below vendors or all. The suspension started on Thursday.
Five Below didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from MT Newswires.
