Description

Todays episode delves into the world of low-volatility stocks, often seen as safe bets but sometimes offering slower growth. We examine three such stocks: Schneider, Merit Medical Systems, and The Hartford. Schneider, a trucking giant, has seen flat sales and falling earnings. Merit Medical, despite its patented products, faces challenges due to its modest revenue base and low return on capital. The Hartford, a large insurer, grapples with slow growth and a predicted sales decline. These examples underscore the importance of looking beyond volatility to assess a companys fundamental health and growth prospects.
