Whirlpool of India Stock Plunges Amid 'Sell' Rating
Imagine a company that makes white goods, like Whirlpool.
Their stock price has gone down quite a bit recently.
One company that gives advice about stocks thinks it might go down even more, so they said to sell.
This is because the stock might be too expensive based on how much money the company is actually making.
The company is also increasing its spending and its parent company plans to sell some of its shares.
Even though things are getting better, experts are cautious, so they suggest it might be a good time to sell the stock.
Whirlpool of India shares have fallen 40% in the last year.
ICICI Securities has a 'Sell' rating on the stock.
Valuations remain high based on core-level earnings.
Parent company plans to divest 31% stake, reducing its holding to 20%.
The brokerage forecasts 12% revenue and 16.6% profit growth annually over FY25-27.
