Is Walgreens Stock a Buy?
It's been a tough year for Walgreens Boots Alliance (NASDAQ: WBA) stock, which is trading down nearly 65% year to date, as of this writing. Things don't look any better when looking even further out, as the stock has lost 88% of its value over the past decade.
There have been rumors swirling of a possible buyout. Is now the time to buy this beaten-down stock?
The fall of Walgreens is due to a combination of self-inflected wounds and overall industry pressure. The company admittedly made a very poor acquisition when it took a majority stake in VillageMD, a medical group that was looking to rapidly expand its footprint.
