H&R Block making comeback, time to buy stock, Barron’s says

Tax season is long gone, but there is a lot to like about H&R Block stock as it gets ready to report earnings on Tuesday. Carleton English writes in this week’s edition of Barron’s. H&R Block had a tough start to the year, with shares dropping 23% through mid-May amid worries about the prospect of the Internal Revenue Service offering free online tax filings and a lackluster fiscal third-quarter earnings report. The stock has since recouped most of those losses and the gains can keep coming, the author notes.
