Caution: High Stock Prices Don't Always Mean Success

Todays podcast delves into stocks that have recently reached their fifty-two-week highs, yet may not be the best long-term investments. We examine three such stocks: Steven Madden, Compass, and ePlus. Steven Madden, known for its trendy footwear, has seen a significant return but lacks revenue growth and struggles with free cash flow. Compass, a digital real estate brokerage, has a strong return but faces weak demand and persistent losses. ePlus, a technology provider, has a modest return but flat sales and contracting earnings. These examples underscore the importance of looking beyond short-term gains and considering a companys financial health and long-term prospects before investing.The Daily News Now! — Every city.
