On September 19, 2025, , . The design software company's shares faced pressure amid broader market volatility, though no direct earnings or partnership announcements were cited as catalysts in accessible reports.

Recent developments surrounding Figma's ecosystem highlighted strategic challenges. A pending partnership review with Adobe, initially flagged as a potential growth driver, has been delayed due to regulatory scrutiny. Meanwhile, internal restructuring efforts to streamline product development have raised concerns about short-term operational efficiency.

Back-testing frameworks for volume-based strategies require careful parameter calibration. Key considerations include defining market universes (e.g., S&P 500 vs. broader exchanges), execution timing (close-to-close vs. open-to-open), and cost assumptions. Current tools limit multi-asset testing to synthetic indices or ETF proxies. Implementation preferences will determine the accuracy of performance simulations for strategies like the "Top-500-by-volume" approach.
