πŸ’° Finance
Check out Weber (Ticker: WEBR) which recently had its IPO. It’s a leading grill maker. The company has 23% of US market share. Despite summer almost being over, the stock may have an attractive valuation. It’s also uniquely positioned to overcome supply chain challenges, which could affect its competitors.
