Smurfit Westrock: Stock Price Weakness Represents A Clear Buy Opportunity
Smurfit WestRock's stock has declined by 17%, but the merger offers growth potential through synergies and operational efficiencies. A Russia-Ukraine peace deal and International Paper's mill closure could reduce costs and tighten the US market, benefiting Smurfit WestRock. The company's global presence mitigates risks from tariffs and counter-tariffs.
