That kind of acceleration, with a 30 day share price return of roughly 31 percent feeding into a 12 month total shareholder return of about 51 percent, suggests momentum is clearly building as investors warm to Amer Sports growth story and risk profile.
If Amer Sports strong run has you rethinking where growth could come from next, it might be worth scanning fast growing stocks with high insider ownership for other under the radar ideas with significant upside potential.
With revenue and earnings climbing faster than many peers and the shares still trading about 21 percent below consensus targets, the real debate now is whether Amer Sports remains a buyable growth story or whether the market has already fully reflected the potential for its next move higher.
With Amer Sports last closing at $38.68 against a narrative fair value near $46.38, the story leans toward upside supported by strengthening fundamentals.
Analysts have nudged their average price target for Amer Sports slightly higher to approximately $46.38, citing marginally stronger expectations for revenue growth and profit margins, which more than offset a modest trimming of future valuation multiples.
