#6 - Lululemon Athletica (NASDAQ:LULU)
Lululemon Athletica Inc. (NASDAQ: LULU) doesn't jump out as a "value" stock. LULU stock is up over 200% in the last five years. However, the company is becoming one of the best "defensive" apparel stocks investors can buy. The company's products are priced for high net-worth individuals. But that isn't slowing down the company's growth one bit.
With one quarter to go in 2024, as of this writing, Lululemon's revenue is up 19%, and earnings are up 31%. And with the company projecting 15% earnings growth in the next 12 months, the stock's trajectory will likely remain bullish.
Analysts continue to bid the stock higher. The Lululemon Athletica analyst ratings on MarketBeat give LULU stock a consensus price target of $493.87. However, on February 20, 2024, Needham & Company reiterated its Buy rating on the stock with a price target of $525.
