How To Invest In Stocks In Both Bull And Bear Markets

Is CarMax Stock A Buy?

CarMax stock broke out earlier, but has fallen back below the prior 86.82 entry from a cup without handle. If a stock you're tracking clears a buy point then declines 7% or more below the original entry price, it's considered a failed base. It's best to wait for the stock to form a new consolidation and breakout. Also understand that the most recent consolidation is a later-stage base, which makes it riskier to establish a new position or add shares to an existing one.

Top and bottom line growth moved higher last quarter. Earnings were up 13%, compared to -16% in the prior report. Revenue increased from -7% to -1%. Keep an eye out for the company's next round of numbers on or around Dec. 19.

CarMax stock earns the No. 13 rank among its peers in the Retail/Wholesale-Auto Parts industry group. ACV Auctions, Group 1 Automotive and Lithia Motors are among the top 5 highly rated stocks within the group.
