Arrow Electronics: Why I Prefer It To Avnet Today
Arrow Electronics is one of the better ways to get a company with AI tailwinds at a value price today. Arrow's aggressive share buyback program has halved its share count since 2014, driving robust EPS growth even amid modest top-line expansion. Recent AI/data center demand has reignited sales momentum, with last quarter's 39.5% sales growth far outpacing analyst expectations.
