CDW
Bear Case

Investors should be bearish about investing in CDW Co. for these reasons:

CDW Co.'s stock price has experienced fluctuations, with a 12-month low of $185.04 and a high of $263.37. The volatility in the stock price may pose risks for investors seeking stable returns.
The company's revenue was down 3.6% compared to the previous year, indicating a potential slowdown in growth. This decline in revenue could impact future earnings and stock performance.
CDW Co.'s debt-to-equity ratio of 2.03 is relatively high, which may raise concerns about the company's financial leverage and ability to manage debt obligations effectively.
While the dividend payout ratio is currently at 30.96%, indicating a sustainable dividend policy, investors should monitor any changes in the ratio to ensure the company maintains its dividend payments in the long term.
The beta of CDW Co. is 1.04, suggesting that the stock's price movements are closely linked to market fluctuations. Investors with a lower risk tolerance may find this level of volatility unsettling.
