The most oversold stocks in the consumer discretionary sector presents an opportunity to buy into undervalued companies.

Portillo's is currently oversold due to activist investor selling, despite strong cash flow and a low price-to-book ratio of 0.79. PTLO faces operational challenges, including weak comps, rising costs, and a failed Texas expansion, but plans to focus on smaller stores and Chicago. A new CEO is expected soon, providing a potential turnaround catalyst and flexibility to reshape strategy with robust free cash flow.

Nebius will supply dedicated GPU infrastructure to power Microsoft's AI services, marking Nebius's first long-term contract with a major cloud service provider. Astera Labs shares contributed positively during the quarter after the company reported better-than-expected fiscal second-quarter results.
