The stocks featured in this article have all approached their 52-week highs. When these price levels hit, it typically signals strong business execution, positive market sentiment, or significant industry tailwinds.

While momentum can be a leading indicator, it has burned many investors as it doesn’t always correlate with long-term success. Keeping that in mind, here is one stock we think lives up to the hype and two best left ignored.

Two Stocks to Sell:

Olo (OLO)

One-Month Return: +17.8%

Founded by Noah Glass, who wanted to get a cup of coffee faster on his way to work, Olo (NYSE: OLO) provides restaurants and food retailers with software to manage food orders and delivery.

Why Is OLO Not Exciting?

1. Bad unit economics and steep infrastructure costs are reflected in its gross margin of 54.7%, one of the worst among software companies
2. Operating losses show it sacrificed profitability while scaling the business
3. Ability to fund investments or reward shareholders with increased buybacks or dividends is restricted by its weak free cash flow margin of 7.4% for the last year

At $10.46 per share, Olo trades at 5.3x forward price-to-sales. To fully understand why you should be careful with OLO, check out our full research report (it’s free).

RTX (RTX)

One-Month Return: +8.6%

Originally focused on refrigeration technology, Raytheon (NSYE:RTX) provides a a variety of products and services to the aerospace and defense industries.

Why Do We Think Twice About RTX?

1. Estimated sales growth of 4.7% for the next 12 months implies demand will slow from its two-year trend
2. Earnings growth underperformed the sector average over the last five years as its EPS grew by just 4.8% annually
3. ROIC of 3.7% reflects management’s challenges in identifying attractive investment opportunities

RTX is trading at $156.65 per share, or 25.5x forward P/E. If you’re considering RTX for your portfolio, see our FREE research report to learn more.

One Stock to Buy:

EMCOR (EME)

One-Month Return: +18.3%

Through its network of over 70 subsidiaries, EMCOR (NYSE: EME) provides electrical, mechanical, and building construction and services

Why Will EME Beat the Market?

1. Impressive 15.6% annual revenue growth over the last two years indicates it’s winning market share this cycle
2. Share repurchases have amplified shareholder returns as its annual earnings per share growth of 54.8% exceeded its revenue gains over the last two years
3. Improving returns on capital reflect management’s ability to monetize investments

EMCOR’s stock price of $628 implies a valuation ratio of 26x forward P/E. Is now the right time to buy? Find out in our full research report, it’s free.
