StockAvista Corporation
One email when a drop — in price or in valuation — is historically rare for AVA. Otherwise we stay quiet.
Bigger than its usual dip. Not yet rare.
Avista Corporation is 12.8% off its high — deeper than its 4% average pullback, but it has been through 159 drawdowns before. Not historically significant yet — we'll say so if that changes.
But down is not the same as cheap: Avista Corporation's P/S Severity Score is 0.5 — its valuation sits in or above its typical range.
