ACIW
STRONG BUYAPPROVEACI Worldwide, Inc. · Technology · United States · $5.7B · Avg Vol: $64M/d
ACI Worldwide clears the calibrated bar. All three legs are above the floor (Q64 V51 M65) and an active buyback provides the required corroboration. Nothing adverse is on file: no negative earnings revision and no insider selling. Quality at Q64 is the strongest part of the case, and payment processing software carries recurring, contracted revenue that is comparatively defensive.
