NetScout (NTCT): THIS Stock Could Double By Next Year

Cybersecurity is one of the better growth areas in tech. Not only is it a necessity, but the more our lives become connected...the more vital it becomes. And yes, the growth of AI certainly increases the need for cybersecurity.

NetScout (NTCT) has been riding this growth wave for quite a while which shows up most dramatically in their string of over 20 straight earnings beats without a miss. 

Their most recent earnings beat put Wall Street on notice once again that this growth story is far from over. This led to a round of earnings estimate increases and target price raises. 

As you can imagine a company growing like this will score incredibly well with the Zen Ratings. Not just A rated...but actually in the 99.81 percentile of all 4,600 stocks analyzed. 

Meaning there are very few stocks that score higher. On top of that we have strong component ratings in the following areas...

Top 20% Sentiment

Top 16% Financials

Top 15% Momentum

Top 8% Value

Top 8% AI factors

Top 5% Growth

As you can see there is virtually no weakness across a wide range of factors which explains why their overall score is so high. 

In terms of Wall Street coverage, our systems only track 1 analyst following the stock. 

As shared in the past, this is often good news. That’s because underfollowed companies that start enjoying earnings momentum like NTCT will garner more analyst attention where each new Buy rating typically brings with it immediate 3-5% gains for the stock.

On the Value front, it's not just the top 8% showing that stands out to me. Even with the recent rally for shares it still trades at only 11X this year's EPS estimates. That is obscenely low for a tech stock like this one. On top of that they sport $6.89 in cash per share. 

Add it all up and I believe shares are currently worth $40 and could easily rise to $50 next year as more people catch wind of the earnings momentum and value story at play. This makes it very appealing to snap up NTCt shares now under $25.
