El gigante del Ibex que encandila al mercado y tiene recorrido al alza

El espa&ntil's top fashion retailer, Inditex, has captured the attention of investors with its impressive rally over the past four years, despite economic uncertainty plaguing the market. The company's stock has surged from 24.85 euros in early 2023 to the current price of 56.48 euros, representing a 127% increase over the period.

Valued at 176.028 million euros, Inditex holds the title of the largest capitalized company on Spain's main index. Of the 33 firms covering the stock, 32 believe the investment is worth making, with 23 recommending a buy and 9 suggesting retaining the shares. Inditex's strong position worldwide, robust business performance, and attractive shareholder return policy have been key factors in its success.

The company reported record sales of 19.755 million euros in the first half of its fiscal year, a 7.6% increase from the same period last year. For 2027-2029, Bank of America projects earnings per share (EPS) growth of 1%, while Deutsche Bank maintains its current predictions for the fiscal year. Inditex's attractive dividend policy, including a recent 4.16% increase to 1.75 euros per share, adds to its appeal, with a current dividend yield of 3%.

Analysts forecast an 8% upside potential for Inditex, with price targets ranging from 60.81 to 67 euros per share.
