Wall Street is overwhelmingly bullish on the stocks in this article, with price targets suggesting significant upside potential. However, it’s worth remembering that analysts rarely issue sell ratings, partly because their firms often seek other business from the same companies they cover.

Unlike the investment banks, we created StockStory to provide independent analysis that helps you determine which companies are truly worth following. That said, here is one stock where Wall Street’s excitement appears well-founded and two where consensus estimates seem disconnected from reality.

Two Stocks to Sell:

Transcat (TRNS)

Consensus Price Target: $96.69 (18.9% implied return)

Serving the pharmaceutical, industrial manufacturing, energy, and chemical process industries, Transcat (NASDAQ: TRNS) provides measurement instruments and supplies.

Why Do We Think Twice About TRNS?

1. Efficiency has decreased over the last five years as its operating margin fell by 1.7 percentage points
2. Low returns on capital reflect management’s struggle to allocate funds effectively, and its falling returns suggest its earlier profit pools are drying up
3. Waning returns on capital from an already weak starting point displays the inefficacy of management’s past and current investment decisions

Transcat’s stock price of $81.35 implies a valuation ratio of 22.9x forward EV-to-EBITDA. Dive into our free research report to see why there are better opportunities than TRNS.

United Parcel Service (UPS)

Consensus Price Target: $105.37 (20.9% implied return)

Trademarking its recognizable UPS Brown color, UPS (NYSE: UPS) offers package delivery, supply chain management, and freight forwarding services.

Why Should You Sell UPS?

1. Declining unit sales over the past two years show it’s struggled to increase its sales volumes and had to rely on price increases
2. Earnings per share decreased by more than its revenue over the last two years, showing each sale was less profitable
3. Shrinking returns on capital suggest that increasing competition is eating into the company’s profitability

At $87.16 per share, United Parcel Service trades at 11.7x forward P/E. To fully understand why you should be careful with UPS, check out our full research report (it’s free).

One Stock to Watch:

Coupang (CPNG)

Consensus Price Target: $33.81 (20.9% implied return)

Founded in 2010 by Harvard Business School student Bom Kim, Coupang (NYSE: CPNG) is an e-commerce giant often referred to as the "Amazon of South Korea".

Why Are We Fans of CPNG?

1. Active Customers are rising, meaning the company can increase revenue without incurring additional customer acquisition costs if it can cross-sell additional products and features
2. Incremental sales significantly boosted profitability as its annual earnings per share growth of 32% over the last three years outstripped its revenue performance
3. Free cash flow margin jumped by 8 percentage points over the last few years, giving the company more resources to pursue growth initiatives, repurchase shares, or pay dividends

Coupang is trading at $27.96 per share, or 25.2x forward EV/EBITDA. Is now the time to initiate a position? See for yourself in our in-depth research report, it’s free.
