Models not High on Lowes
ValuEngine Finds Lowe's Overvalued Despite Positive Earnings Report
According to the Wall St. Journal, Lowe's Company (LOW) reported a 27% jump
in q4 earnings despite the ongoing recession. Despite this earnings figure, ValuEngine
rates Lowe's Companies (LOW) a HOLD/MATCH. The company's Valuation and Forecast
Models find that LOW is overvalued and that it does not present a positive forecast picture
when compared to the rest of the firm's 4000 ticker stock universe. While the company
exhibits attractive size and volatility, it has unattractive market valuation and expected EPS
growth.
We track @4000 stocks in our US universe--of which @500 are foreign stocks and
ADRs that trade on US exchanges. We find that our database contains many tickers with
more promising rating, valuation, and forecast figures than LOW.
