This morning, Vince McMahon shocked the wrestling world and sent the stock market in a frenzy all at once. The company he founded – World Wrestling Entertainment, or WWE as it’s more commonly known – is going through an internal shakeup that has wrestling fans and investors alike excited.

As the controlling shareholder, McMahon removed 3 board members from their roles, and 2 others left on their own accord. He will be stepping back in, and he is bringing two more former executives with him – former co-presidents Michelle Wilson and George Barrios.

According to McMahon, this is the only way for WWE to fully capitalize on the growth in demand for live entertainment & content. After growing the company for 4 decades, he retired last July. But that hiatus was short-lived.

The goal of this is to maximize shareholder value in the short term. However, McMahon also said the company would be exploring strategic alternatives – seeking a sale. This news was initially reported yesterday but was made official today. While there’s no concrete evidence that a sale is on the horizon, the speculation alone has sent shares trading over 22% higher so far Friday morning.

WWE Has Fair Upside Potential, Good Safety, and Excellent Timing

The VectorVest system simplifies trading for you by telling you what to buy, when to buy it, and when to sell it. No guesswork, no emotion – just follow the system and you’ll save time and win more trades. It’s all based on 3 easy-to-understand ratings: relative value (RV), relative safety (RS), and relative timing (RT).

These sit on a scale of 0.00-2.00 – with 1.00 being the average. Ratings over the average indicate good performance and vice versa. And based on these three ratings, VectorVest is able to give you a clear buy, sell, or hold recommendation for any given stock, at any given time. As for WWE, here’s the current situation:

  • Fair Upside Potential: In comparing the price appreciation potential for WWE 3 years out compared to AAA corporate bond rates and risk, VectorVest deems the upside potential to be fair with an RV rating of 1.06. With that said, the stock is overvalued at its current price today. The current value is just $49.80.
  • Good Safety: In terms of risk, WWE is a safe stock – and the good RS rating of 1.19 reflects that. This is calculated based on the company’s financial consistency and predictability, debt-to-equity ratio, and business longevity.
  • Excellent Timing: As you can see by watching how the stock price has moved this morning, WWE has excellent timing. This is confirmed by the excellent RT rating of 1.51 – which is calculated based on the direction, dynamics, and magnitude of a stock’s price movement.

These three ratings work out to an overall VST rating of 1.29 – which is very good. But is it enough to earn WWE a buy? Or, should you wait for the next dip to get better value?
