According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, GB:WIX is a Neutral.

Wickes Group’s stock score is primarily influenced by moderate financial performance and weak technical indicators. The company’s strong cash flow generation is a positive factor, but high leverage and declining revenue growth pose risks. The stock’s valuation appears high, though the dividend yield offers some appeal. Overall, the stock faces challenges in market momentum and valuation, impacting its attractiveness.
