TD SYNNEX already has institutions on the share registry. Indeed, they own a respectable stake in the company. This suggests some credibility amongst professional investors. But we can't rely on that fact alone since institutions make bad investments sometimes, just like everyone does.

So it is worth checking the past earnings trajectory of TD SYNNEX, (below). Of course, keep in mind that there are other factors to consider, too.
