Hitting a new 52-week low can be a pivotal moment for any stock. These floors often mark either the beginning of a turnaround story or confirmation that a company faces serious headwinds.
While market timing can be an extremely profitable strategy, it has burned many investors and requires rigorous analysis - something we specialize in at StockStory. Keeping that in mind, here is one stock where you should be greedy instead of fearful and two where the skepticism is well-placed.
Two Stocks to Sell:
Fiverr (FVRR)
One-Month Return: -10.5%
Based in Tel Aviv, Fiverr (NYSE: FVRR) operates a fixed price global freelance marketplace for digital services.
Why Are We Cautious About FVRR?
- Value proposition isn’t resonating strongly as its active buyers averaged 12.3% drops over the last two years
- Projected sales decline of 7.2% for the next 12 months points to a tough demand environment ahead
- Highly competitive market means it’s on the never-ending treadmill of sales and marketing spend
At $10.25 per share, Fiverr trades at 1.2x forward price-to-gross profit. Dive into our free research report to see why there are better opportunities than FVRR.
Gray Television (GTN)
One-Month Return: -7.5%
Specializing in local media coverage, Gray Television (NYSE: GTN) is a broadcast company supplying digital media to various markets in the United States.
Why Is GTN Risky?
- Sales trends were unexciting over the last five years as its 5.2% annual growth was below the typical consumer discretionary company
- Returns on capital haven’t budged, indicating management couldn’t drive additional value creation
Gray Television is trading at $4.01 per share, or 0.1x forward price-to-sales. If you’re considering GTN for your portfolio, see our FREE research report to learn more.
One Stock to Buy:
Houlihan Lokey (HLI)
One-Month Return: -9%
Founded in 1972 and known for its expertise in complex financial situations, Houlihan Lokey (NYSE: HLI) is a global investment bank specializing in mergers and acquisitions, capital markets, financial restructurings, and valuation advisory services.
Why Are We Backing HLI?
- Market share has increased this cycle as its 16.9% annual revenue growth over the last two years was exceptional
- Incremental sales significantly boosted profitability as its annual earnings per share growth of 29.7% over the last two years outstripped its revenue performance
- Impressive 20.1% annual tangible book value per share growth over the last two years indicates it’s building equity value this cycle
Houlihan Lokey’s stock price of $139.08 implies a valuation ratio of 17.3x forward P/E. Is now the right time to buy? Find out in our full research report, it’s free.
