Stocks, especially growth stocks where cash flows further in the future are more important to the story, had a good end of 2023. But 2024 has seen more volatile stock performance thanks to mixed inflation data, and while some of the social networking stocks have fared somewhat better, they have not been spared, with share prices down 6.6% on average over the last month. Nextdoor is down 4.5% during the same time and is heading into earnings with an average analyst price target of $2.6 (compared to the current share price of $2.55).

When a company has more cash than it knows what to do with, buying back its own shares can make a lot of sense–as long as the price is right. Luckily, we’ve found one, a low-priced stock that is gushing free cash flow AND buying back shares.
