NewsWire / Max Mason-Hubers Credit: News Corp AustraliaColes plummeted 7.35 per cent after reporting weaker sales growth than Woolworths, especially in liquor.Woolworths dipped 0.96 per cent after its biggest single day gain on record earlier in the week.Senior financial market analyst at capital.com Kyle Rodda said the drop in Coles’ share price was partly because net profit undershot analyst forecasts.“So there’s a bit of punishment happening, so to speak,” he said.Mr Rodda noted the report also “didn’t really paint a super rosy picture” for the future.“The company highlighted competitive pressures as a risk to future profits. In part, this suggests that in the so-called ‘supermarket wars’, Coles might be down on the proverbial scorecard right now,” he said.“The fact that Woolworths delivered such a strong result for the period and saw a very positive response in its share price illustrates who the markets are backing at the moment.”Camera IconColes plummeted 7.35 per cent after reporting weaker sales growth than Woolworths.
