WDR - Waddell & Reed Financial: Reviving Potential Amidst Prolonged Dormancy

• Waddell & Reed Financial, Inc. still shows a sound financial position but growth remains stagnant.
• Although dividends remain unchanged, payouts have been consistent with a reasonable yield of 4%.
• The M&A with Macquarie seemed to have added appeal to the company due to the sudden increase in the stock price last December.
• The YTD stock price moves sideways but geared more towards a downward trend which seems to agree with the potential overvaluation as shown by the PE Ratio and the PB Ratio.
