momentjs returns wrong day name

This returns Wednesday, but it's Thursday

console.log(moment("7-03-2019").format("dddd")); //Wednesday

7-03-2019 is Thursday but moment("7-03-2019").format("dddd")

console.log(moment().format("dddd")); //Thursday

What am I doing wrong?

July 3, 2019 (07-03-2019) is a Wednesday (because the dates are in the format MM-DD-YYYY) If you want March 7, 2019 (03-07-2019) you should do 

console.log(moment("03-07-2019").format("dddd")); //Thursday

Moment.js is parsing the given input in "MM-DD-YYYY" format.

It would benefit if you mentioned the format with the input. Refer: https://momentjs.com/docs/#/parsing/string-format/

Example: 

console.log(moment("7-03-2019", "DD-MM-YYYY").format("dddd"));
