Understanding different market volatility trends often help investors to time the market. Properly using volatility indicators enable traders to measure National Vision's stock risk against market volatility during both bullying and bearish trends. The higher level of volatility that comes with bear markets can directly impact National Vision's stock price while adding stress to investors as they watch their shares' value plummet. This usually forces investors to rebalance their portfolios by buying different stocks as prices fall.

Although other entities under the specialty retail industry are still a bit expensive, National Vision may offer a potential longer-term growth to shareholders. The bottom line, as of the 3rd of March 2021, we believe National Vision is currently overvalued. It almost mirrors the market and projects below average probability of bankruptcy in the next two years. Our primary 30 days 'Buy-vs-Sell' recommendation on the firm is Hold.
