Summary Tariff-related recession worries have weighed on Townsquare Media (TSQ) lately; for some, this may call into question whether the bull case remains intact for this digital marketer and radio broadcaster. Although a recession could have a severe near-term impact on fiscal performance, TSQ's low valuation relative to peers may minimize downside risk. Furthermore, if macro factors prove better-than-feared, and Townsquare continues on with its digital transformation, an eventual move to more than $20 per share remains in reach. A high dividend yield and a track record of share repurchases further heighten the appeal of TSQ stock as a bottom-fishing buy.
