Holding Off Franklin Resources Ahead Of Q4 Earnings
Summary
- I sold shares in Franklin Resources for a profit but am considering buying back at a lower price.
- Trends in assets under management have increased year over year, providing some optimism for the company's financial health.
- BEN stock is currently cheaper and offers a higher dividend yield compared to previous measurements, but I am still cautious due to declining operating and net income.
