StockStory Flags Picks, Warns on Many Stocks

StockStory published a series of Yahoo Finance analyses categorizing stocks by volatility, cash strength, momentum, valuation and market cap, typically naming one candidate it likes and two it advises caution on. Common red flags across the pieces include slowing or flat revenue, shrinking free cash flow and operating margins, falling returns on capital, EPS declines or dilution, cash burn, and lofty forward valuations. The firm highlights potential winners such as ResMed for steady constant-currency growth and improving free cash flow, and Comfort Systems for strong backlog growth and rising returns. It flags many names for specific weaknesses — including Burlington, Lamb Weston, Labcorp, Premier, Dover, Guardant Health, Corcept, Cohen & Steers, Masco, Corning, Etsy, Telephone & Data Systems, Lindsay, Allstate, Intel, DocuSign and Jabil — and calls out acute risks like Guardant’s cash burn and dilution risk, Intel’s collapsing margins and FCF deterioration, and DocuSign’s tepid ARR and sales outlook. Coverage consistently advises favoring companies with durable growth, improving margins and strong cash conversion and warns against firms relying on M&A, share issuance, commoditized products or stressed balance sheets.
