    Based on the news and articles I found, here is the reason why Booking Holdings (BKNG) stock jumped while Expedia (EXPE) tumbled:

    Expedia Group revised down its growth outlook for 2024 due to the slower-than-expected recovery of its vacation rental brand Vrbo. This news negatively impacted investor sentiment towards Expedia, leading to a decline in its stock price. Source

      

    On the other hand, Booking Holdings reported better-than-expected Q1 earnings and sales, surpassing analyst forecasts. The company experienced robust growth in bookings and sustained strong demand for travel. This positive performance and market share gains contributed to the increase in Booking Holdings' stock price. Source

      

    It is important to note that stock prices are influenced by various factors, including company performance, market conditions, investor sentiment, and competitive dynamics. The contrasting performance of Booking Holdings and Expedia in Q1 2024, along with their respective growth outlooks, likely contributed to the divergent stock price movements.
