BIG - Big Lots: Reversion To The Mean Is Still In Progress

• Big Lots' share price is performing poorly compared to its competitors despite having a better EPS CAGR.
• The company has much better valuation metrics than its peers, displaying the stock at a bargain.
• With sound fundamentals and cheap valuations, the company may allure investors to jump in and buy the stock; however, the high volatility heeds caution.
• I am neutral on the stock because I believe the company can be a good long-play, but as it is likely to go further down during the year, an impulse decision to buy at the current level would better serve to remain in check.
