Flex Ltd. shares are sliding as traders lock in gains and question whether the stock’s rich valuation can be justified after its recent record run. The pullback is being fueled by institutional profit-taking and unease that the price had moved well beyond what some analysts see as the company’s underlying worth.
The selloff follows a more than 50% surge sparked by Flex’s May 6 plan to spin off its fast-growing Cloud and Power Infrastructure unit. Investors are now reassessing the long-term impact of the spinoff and recent insider selling, viewing the retreat as a technical correction after the stock neared $145.
