Why is Corsair Gaming stock sliding today?

Corsair Gaming (CRSR) shares fell 4.4% in pre-market trading after Goldman Sachs initiated coverage with a 'Sell' rating and $11.00 price target. This contrasts with prior analyst consensus and follows a director's sale of nearly 9,000 shares. The stock had surged after strong Q2 results and raised guidance, reaching a 52-week high. Goldman's target suggests the rally may have overshot fundamentals.
