What to not like:
Poor risk adjusted returns

This company is delivering below median risk adjusted returns in its peers. Even if it is outperforming on returns , the returns are unpredictable. Proceed with caution.

Low Earnings Growth

This stock has shown below median earnings growth in the previous 5 years compared to its sector
