Deutsche Bank analyst Nicole Deblase placed a “Catalyst Call: Sell” on shares of Stanley Black & Decker as a short-term investment idea. It is “very surprising” that the stock is up 2% year-to-date during an escalating U.S. trade war, as the Stanley has relatively high exposure to imported goods from both China and Mexico, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm believes the stock’s risk/reward is skewed to the downside.
