USFD
US Foods Holding Corp.
US Foods shows firm upward price momentum over 1–12 months, with the latest close near the upper end of its 52-week range and price trading above short- and medium-term moving averages. Fundamentals indicate steady but modest revenue, earnings, and cash flow growth alongside thin operating and net margins and meaningful leverage. Valuation multiples such as P/E and EV/EBITDA appear elevated relative to low-single-digit growth and narrow margins, while short interest and intraday short volume suggest non-trivial positioning risk on the short side.
