However, it is acceptable for a quality compounder with a strong moat. The stock holds at 26% of its 52-week range with RSI at 55. In other words, neither side has a clear edge right now. Revenue grows at 14.3% and profits at 23.5% CAGR — a genuinely strong business. Nevertheless, the stock drops 3.6% in three months. The market sells the stock, not the story.
