If you are wondering whether Nestlé is quietly becoming good value again, or if it is still priced for safety rather than upside, you are not alone. Plenty of long term investors are asking the same question. The stock is up 4.9% year to date and 7.3% over the last year, but those gains sit against a 21.5% slide over 3 years and a 9.5% drop over 5 years, suggesting the market is still recalibrating its expectations. Recent months have seen Nestlé in the headlines for portfolio reshaping and...

EPIC Suisse (SWX:EPIC) has just wrapped up a CHF 70 million follow on equity offering at about CHF 80 a share. This deal could subtly reset how investors think about its valuation. See our latest analysis for EPIC Suisse. Despite the modest discount to the CHF 80 offer price, the current CHF 81.8 share price and flat year to date share price return sit alongside a much stronger 1 year total shareholder return of 9.7 percent and robust 3 year total shareholder return of 53.9 percent. This...

In this environment, identifying undervalued stocks can be a strategic move, as these equities may offer potential for growth when market conditions stabilize.

Temenos (SWX:TEMN) has quietly climbed about 6% over the past week and more than 30% in the past 3 months, putting fresh attention on whether this banking software specialist’s rebound still has room to run. See our latest analysis for Temenos. That recent momentum builds on a solid recovery trend, with a strong 90 day share price return helping push year to date gains higher.

See our latest analysis for Nestlé. After a soft patch in prior years, Nestlé’s roughly mid single digit year to date share price return has been backed by improving sales and earnings, hinting that investors are slowly rebuilding confidence after a weaker three year total shareholder return.
