W.W. Grainger (GWW) has been highlighted as a top growth stock for the long term, with a substantial 74% institutional ownership. Despite operating in a typically 'boring' industry, the company has demonstrated impressive returns and is considered one of the best dividend stocks. Some experts suggest the company may be undervalued, and has shown strong momentum going forward. The stock's latest performance potentially reflects its strong financial health. Furthermore, rumors of a possible stock split suggest potential gains for shareholders. Despite missing Q3 earnings and revenue estimates, GWW remains a solid choice within Industrial Distribution. Some insider selling and high valuations have raised a degree of caution, however, the financials are seen as robust and investors may still see value in GWW. The stock showed strong growth and reached all-time highs, with robust Q1 and Q2 earnings and consistent outperformance compared to other Maintenance and Repair Distributor stocks. While some analysts remain cautious due to valuation concerns, Grainger's consistent management and steady growth give reassurances. The company recently sold its E&R Industrial subsidiary to focus on its core business, and analysts rate GWW as a potential 'strong buy'.
