Intercontinental Exchange: An Overlooked Stock With Solid Long-Term Potential
Summary
- ICE has attractive revenue streams that benefit the company in both good and bad market environments.
- It has seen good EPS growth in recent quarters, but with an important caveat for most recent Q2 earnings.
- ICE offers upside potential for long-term investors when valued using DCF analysis, but looks fairly valued to slightly overvalued when compared against historical multiples.
