Our Final Perspective on CTI Industries

While many of the other players under auto parts industry are still a little expensive, even after the recent corrections, CTI Industries may offer a potential longer-term growth to investors. All things considered, as of 24th of June 2020, we believe that at this point CTI Industries is abnormally volatile with below average odds of financial turmoil within the next 2 years. From a slightly different point of view, the entity appears to be overvalued. Our concluding 30 days buy vs. hold vs. sell advice on the company is Strong Sell. With a less-than optimistic outlook for your 30 days horizon, it may be a good time to quit on some or all of your CTI Industries holdings as it seems the potential growth was already fully factored into the current price.
