Key Points
The computer industry has been facing slowdowns recently as operators work to reduce inventory levels and face financial contractions.
However, there are three stocks in this sector that analysts favor, and broader markets also recognize their value.
One standout stock in this list is Mercury Systems. Despite declining from recent highs, its current stock price offers a bear market discount. Analysts project a significant increase in earnings for the next twelve months, which suggests a promising future. The stock has a consensus price target of $41.7, implying a nearly 10% upside.
Logitech is another computer stock worth considering. The market is willing to pay a premium for its expected earnings growth, which is reflected in a high price-to-earnings ratio. While the company reported a contraction in revenues and earnings, its cash flow situation improved, and management repurchased shares, supporting the stock price.
ZoomInfo Technologies is a stock with double upside potential, according to analysts. Unlike many other companies in the sector, ZoomInfo reported net sales increases over the past year. The company also initiated a significant share repurchase program, indicating confidence in its fair value.
These computer stocks offer potential opportunities for investors willing to go against the current industry slowdown.
