A highly volatile stock can deliver big gains - or just as easily wipe out a portfolio if things go south. While some investors embrace risk, mistakes can be costly for those who aren’t prepared.

At StockStory, our job is to help you avoid costly mistakes and stay on the right side of the trade. Keeping that in mind, here are three volatile stocks best left to the gamblers and some better opportunities instead.

Enpro (NPO)

Rolling One-Year Beta: 1.34

Holding a Guinness World Record for creating the world's largest gasket, Enpro (NYSE: NPO) designs, manufactures, and sells products used for machinery in various industries.

Why Is NPO Not Exciting?

Customers postponed purchases of its products and services this cycle as its revenue declined by 2.1% annually over the last five years
Earnings per share have dipped by 2.4% annually over the past two years, which is concerning because stock prices follow EPS over the long term
Underwhelming 6.7% return on capital reflects management’s difficulties in finding profitable growth opportunities

At $180.26 per share, Enpro trades at 23.3x forward P/E. Dive into our free research report to see why there are better opportunities than NPO.

TopBuild (BLD)

Rolling One-Year Beta: 0.81

Established in 2015 following a spinoff from Masco Corporation, TopBuild (NYSE: BLD) is a distributor and installer of insulation and other building products.

Why Are We Wary of BLD?

Organic revenue growth fell short of our benchmarks over the past two years and implies it may need to improve its products, pricing, or go-to-market strategy
Sales are projected to tank by 2.3% over the next 12 months as demand evaporates
Earnings growth underperformed the sector average over the last two years as its EPS grew by just 7.7% annually

TopBuild is trading at $297.50 per share, or 14.2x forward P/E. Read our free research report to see why you should think twice about including BLD in your portfolio.

Rivian (RIVN)

Rolling One-Year Beta: 1.18

The manufacturer of Amazon’s delivery trucks, Rivian (NASDAQ: RIVN) designs, manufactures, and sells electric vehicles and commercial delivery vans.

Why Are We Cautious About RIVN?

Negative 52.8% gross margin means it loses money on every sale and must pivot or scale quickly to survive
Negative free cash flow raises questions about the return timeline for its investments
Short cash runway increases the probability of a capital raise that dilutes existing shareholders

Rivian’s stock price of $13.66 implies a valuation ratio of 2.9x forward price-to-sales. If you’re considering RIVN for your portfolio, see our FREE research report to learn more.
