Stocks in the $10-50 range offer a sweet spot between affordability and stability as they’re typically more established than penny stocks. But their headline prices don’t guarantee quality, and investors should exercise caution as some have shaky business models.
This is precisely where StockStory comes in - we do the heavy lifting to identify companies with solid fundamentals so you can invest with confidence. That said, here are two stocks under $50 that could 10x and one that may have trouble.
One Stock Under $50 to Sell:
DocuSign (DOCU)
Share Price: $48.55
Creating the digital equivalent of "sign on the dotted line" for over a billion users worldwide, DocuSign (NASDAQ: DOCU) provides an agreement management platform that enables businesses to electronically prepare, sign, and manage documents and contracts.
Why Is DOCU Not Exciting?
- Customers were hesitant to make long-term commitments to its software as its 8.6% average ARR growth over the last year was sluggish
- Anticipated sales growth of 6.6% for the next year implies demand will be shaky
- Operating profits increased over the last year as the company gained some leverage on its fixed costs and became more efficient
DocuSign is trading at $48.55 per share, or 3x forward price-to-sales. Dive into our free research report to see why there are better opportunities than DOCU.
Two Stocks Under $50 to Watch:
Remitly (RELY)
Share Price: $16.97
With Amazon founder Jeff Bezos as an early investor, Remitly (NASDAQ: RELY) is an online platform that enables consumers to safely and quickly send money globally.
Why Is RELY a Good Business?
- Active Customers are rising, meaning the company can increase revenue without incurring additional customer acquisition costs if it can cross-sell additional products and features
- Incremental sales over the last three years have been highly profitable as its earnings per share increased by 108% annually, topping its revenue gains
- Free cash flow margin grew by 34.7 percentage points over the last few years, giving the company more chips to play with
At $16.97 per share, Remitly trades at 9.4x forward EV/EBITDA. Is now the right time to buy? See for yourself in our full research report, it’s free.
