Beat Private Equity to the Punch on This Value Opportunity

Ahead of the Curve

This company is uniquely well-positioned to capitalize on the growth in this overlooked, niche market. However, the expectations baked into the stock price remain too low.

This ETF Lives up to Its Name

Leveraging our Robo-Analyst technology, which analyzes the holdings of all 7,908 ETFs and mutual funds under coverage, we found this ETF with high quality holdings that should appeal to sophisticated value investors.

Position Close Update: National Research Corp (NRC)

While the firm’s fundamentals remain strong, its valuation no longer offers attractive risk/reward.
by Kyle Guske II, Senior Investment Analyst, MBA
May 16, 20180Comments

This Footwear Stock is Back on Sale

It can be scary to buy a stock that’s just dropped 30%, but if the long-term trend in fundamentals remains intact, an unwarranted drop in valuation can lead to a great buying opportunity.
by Sam McBride
May 15, 20180Comments

A decline in fundamentals, along with a weakening competitive position (KNL no longer earns the highest ROIC among competitors) lead us to close this position.

The decline in fundamentals along with what appears to be a weakening competitive position versus Walmart (WMT) and Amazon (AMZN) lead us to close this position.

Rising from the Ashes to Lead a New Retail Paradigm

The market has recognized some of the turnaround (shares are up 40% in the past year), but investors are missing the critical role the firm could play in the next chapter of retail as well as the balance sheet story.
