7 Stocks That Hold Appeal for Aggressive Investors - 7 of 7

 
 

#7 - Coty (NYSE:COTY)

Coty Inc. (NYSE: COTY) is a retail stock in the health and beauty sector. The stock is down approximately 39% in 2024 and 16% in the month heading into its third quarter earnings report. The concern comes as Coty guided to slowing U.S. sales. While the company is undertaking cost-cutting measures, investors will be looking at the company’s path to renewed growth. 

However, if you’re an aggressive investor, COTY stock appears to be oversold. Trading at $7.50 as of this writing, the stock is now a penny stock by some estimates. It also has a forward P/E ratio of 13.7x.  

Critics will say that some stocks are cheap for a reason. Several analysts have lowered their price targets since the company’s guidance warning. But the stock maintains a Moderate Buy rating with a consensus price target of $12.15, which offers investors a 61% upside from its current price.
