Taking full advantage of the stock market and investing with confidence are common goals for new and old investors alike.
While you may have an investing style you rely on, finding great stocks is made easier with the Zacks Style Scores. These are complementary indicators that rate stocks based on value, growth, and/or momentum characteristics.
Different than value or momentum investors, growth-oriented investors are concerned with a stock's future prospects, and the overall financial health and strength of a company. Thus, they'll want to focus on the Growth Style Score, which analyzes characteristics like projected and historical earnings, sales, and cash flow to find stocks that will see sustainable growth over time.
SCCO sits at a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), holds a Growth Style Score of B, and has a VGM Score of B. Earnings and sales are forecasted to increase 6.2% and 3.6% year-over-year, respectively.
Two analysts revised their earnings estimate upwards in the last 60 days for fiscal 2025. The Zacks Consensus Estimate has increased $0.03 to $4.60 per share. SCCO boasts an average earnings surprise of 7.9%.
On a historic basis, Southern Copper has generated cash flow growth of 13.4%, and is expected to report cash flow expansion of 29.6% this year.
With solid fundamentals, a good Zacks Rank, and top-tier Growth and VGM Style Scores, SCCO should be on investors' short lists.
