Summary
StockStory singled out Boeing and Leidos as S&P 500 names to watch, while telling investors to leave Qualcomm off their watchlist.
Qualcomm’s warning call centered on a projected 2.8% revenue decline over the next 12 months and a 12.7-point drop in operating margin over five years, despite 8.6% annual revenue growth over the last two years.
Boeing made the positive list on 60.4% average unit sales growth, an estimated 12.3% revenue increase ahead and 48.1% annual EPS growth that outpaced sales.
Leidos stood out for 15.9% average backlog growth, 16.8% annual EPS growth and a 6.5-point expansion in free-cash-flow margin, giving it more room for investment and shareholder returns.
The note follows another StockStory screen published earlier Tuesday that favored Corning while recommending investors sell Fluence Energy and Artivion.
