$BLBD "Heads up alert! Only three days until Upcoming earnings on Monday, 11/25/2024 for $BLBD Neutral (5.5) In the recent evaluation of Blue Bird Corporation (BLBD), several factors come into play regarding its market performance and financial health. The stock has displayed volatility, with trading sessions reflecting both gains and losses. Currently, the stock price stands around $41, with fluctuations indicating a -1.94% change recently, which contrasts with the overall market performance. Financial metrics reveal a P/E ratio that suggests a cautious optimism compared to industry peers, indicating a potentially overvalued stock despite a projected EPS growth of approximately 15% year-over-year. Revenue forecast indicates a positive trajectory, particularly in the electric vehicle segment, bolstered by preliminary unit sales that signal a robust demand for cleaner-emission school buses. However, the mixed opinions from analysts, particularly those citing concerns over Wall Street's overly optimistic recommendations, weigh heavily on investor sentiment. The ongoing appointment of seasoned executives signifies an effort to strengthen the company's strategic direction amidst a competitive landscape. Upcoming earnings reports are scheduled for November 25, 2024, where expectations are set to provide critical insights into the company's performance. Historical performance has shown that Blue Bird has previously outperformed analyst estimates, making the upcoming report particularly significant for investor confidence. Analysts anticipate a solid revenue increase, with consensus estimates suggesting a potential earnings per share (EPS) growth that could surpass previous quarters. The potential impact of these results on the stock could be substantial, particularly if they align positively with market expectations. Analysts remain divided, with a consensus leaning towards a ""Buy"" but cautioning against the exuberance reflected in some estimates, signaling that investor sentiment could fluctuate based on the forthcoming data. - Funds were net buyers of $BLBD during the previous reporting quarter. - Here are some of the funds with a sizable holdings (as of Q4 of 2024) for $BLBD: * D.

$BLBD Parents take their kids to school these days. School buses are a thing of the past and with the department of education going away soon there won't be any federal money for these things. It will be up to each individual state to budget.

Wow, a $91 dollar price target for $BLBD? People got caught up in the EV conversation but it's not even 10% of it's sales. Apparently the competition went all in to EV and now BLBD is the only one who can currently offer propane and gasoline school buses (Monopoly). https://seekingalpha.com/article/4734884-bluebird-adding-to-my-position-with-a-100-percent-upside-target

Eyore Posted - 2 weeks ago

@aj_81 @gaineous how much of this is due to opaque and often predatory SPAC share structure? A handful of SPACs have done well. $VRT $TGLS $BLBD Most haven't. Even seemingly promising ones Also, anyone looked at $BLND?
