Unfortunately for Jabil (NYSE:JBL), there's really nothing that this manufacturing specialist can do about the uninspiring demand conditions in so many of its end-markets today. Key markets like consumer electronics, IT hardware, and healthcare are all pretty stagnant right now, and that is working its way back to this otherwise well-run company. Although Jabil still looks undervalued on a long-term basis, the same problems remain – weak free cash flow margins, inconsistent (and often quite mediocre) returns on capital, and ample volatility in demand, which places a premium on timing the stock buys and sells carefully.
