Given the current price of $73.12, the RSI at 28.4 indicates the stock is oversold, but the forward P/E ratio of 37.59 suggests it may be overvalued relative to future earnings. Additionally, the gross margin has dropped to 4.88%, significantly lower than previous quarters, indicating profitability issues. The recent class action lawsuits and a 21.6% drop in stock price due to cost overruns further heighten the risk. Therefore, it is advisable to sell or avoid buying at this time.
