Over the past 610 weeks of data, CDW has crossed below its 200-week moving average 2 times. On average, these episodes lasted 32 weeks. The average one-year return after crossing below was -14.2%, suggesting these dips have not historically been reliable buying opportunities for this stock.

Over the past 11.8 years, a hypothetical investment of $100 in CDW would have grown to $499, compared to $431 for the S&P 500. That represents an annualized return of 14.7% vs 13.2% for the index — confirming CDW as a market-beating investment and the kind of quality company where buying during 200-week moving average touches has historically been rewarded.

Free cash flow has been growing at a 19% compound annual rate, with 4 consecutive years of positive cash generation. A business generating more cash every year while trading below its 200-week moving average is exactly the kind of disconnect value investors look for.
