Wall Street has issued downbeat forecasts for the stocks in this article. These predictions are rare - financial institutions typically hesitate to say bad things about a company because it can jeopardize their other revenue-generating business lines like M&A advisory.

Accurately determining a company’s long-term prospects isn’t easy, especially when sentiment is weak. That’s where StockStory comes in - to help you find attractive investment candidates backed by unbiased research. That said, here is one stock where you should be greedy instead of fearful and two facing legitimate challenges.

Two Stocks to Sell:

Stitch Fix (SFIX)

Consensus Price Target: $5.25 (22.5% implied return)

One of the original subscription box companies, Stitch Fix (NASDAQ: SFIX) is an online personal styling and fashion service that curates personalized clothing selections for customers.

Why Do We Avoid SFIX?

1. Demand for its offerings was relatively low as its number of active clients has underwhelmed
2. Ability to fund investments or reward shareholders with increased buybacks or dividends is restricted by its weak free cash flow margin of 0.5% for the last two years
3. Eroding returns on capital from an already low base indicate that management’s recent investments are destroying value

Stitch Fix’s stock price of $4.29 implies a valuation ratio of 0.4x forward price-to-sales. Read our free research report to see why you should think twice about including SFIX in your portfolio.

Archer-Daniels-Midland (ADM)

Consensus Price Target: $60.09 (-9.4% implied return)

Transforming crops from the world's most productive agricultural regions into everyday essentials, Archer-Daniels-Midland (NYSE: ADM) processes and transports agricultural commodities like grains and oilseeds while manufacturing ingredients for food, beverages, feed, and industrial applications.

Why Do We Think ADM Will Underperform?

1. Annual revenue declines of 7.5% over the last three years indicate problems with its market positioning
2. Gross margin of 6.5% is below its competitors, leaving less money to invest in areas like marketing and production facilities
3. Earnings per share have dipped by 24.2% annually over the past three years, which is concerning because stock prices follow EPS over the long term

Archer-Daniels-Midland is trading at $66.33 per share, or 16x forward P/E. To fully understand why you should be careful with ADM, check out our full research report (it’s free).

One Stock to Watch:

Vita Coco (COCO)

Consensus Price Target: $58.78 (1% implied return)

Founded in 2004 followed by a 2021 IPO, The Vita Coco Company (NASDAQ: COCO) offers coconut water products that are a natural way to quench thirst.

Why Is COCO Interesting?

1. Stellar 10.8% growth in unit sales over the past two years demonstrates the high demand for its products
2. Earnings per share have massively outperformed its peers over the last three years, increasing by 89.3% annually
3. ROIC punches in at 43.3%, illustrating management’s expertise in identifying profitable investments, and its rising returns show it’s making even more lucrative bets

At $58.18 per share, Vita Coco trades at 37.8x forward P/E. Is now the right time to buy? See for yourself in our in-depth research report, it’s free.
