Pawn shop operator EZCORP trades at a big discount to FirstCash Holdings, its sole U.S.-listed peer, but there's a good reason for this valuation discrepancy. Yet while the discount is justified, there is still a path for EZPW, which is up by more than 42% year-to-date, to continue climbing higher. That said, keep in mind, too, that there's another potential risk that could affect results down the road, and explain this stock's elevated level of short interest.
Ezcorp (EZPW) has been upgraded to a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), reflecting growing optimism about the company's earnings prospects. This might drive the stock higher in the near term.
