Growth against the P/E multiple. Up and to the right is cheaper and faster — the quality-growth idea in one picture. Points beyond the axis are pinned to the edge and marked off-scale rather than allowed to compress everything else.

The companies
AZOAutoZone, Inc.
Why now
Auto Parts · market cap $49.1b. Down 31% from 52-week high of $4388.11 — deep drawdown territory. 23 sell-side analysts rate this a Strong Buy with a mean 1-yr target of $3,951 (implying +31% upside).
Moat
Net margin 13% beats the market median by a meaningful margin — the company is keeping more of every revenue dollar than the average S&P constituent.
Risk
Down 31% from the 52-week high — the market is pricing in something the screen can't see; verify the bear case before sizing up. ROE -90% is below the long-run sustainable threshold of ~10% — capital efficiency would need to improve for the equity base to compound at the market rate.
LCIILCI Industries
Why now
Recreational Vehicles · market cap $2.5b. Down 35% from 52-week high of $159.66 — deep drawdown territory. 10 sell-side analysts rate this a Buy with a mean 1-yr target of $129.40 (implying +24% upside).
Moat
ROE 15% meets the long-run market sustainable threshold — solid but not differentiated; the durability comes from elsewhere. FCF converts 136% of net income — earnings translate cleanly into cash, a sign that working capital and capex are well-disciplined.
Risk
Down 35% from the 52-week high — the market is pricing in something the screen can't see; verify the bear case before sizing up.

Pillars run 0–100 against sector peers, so a score is a statement about a company relative to its own industry rather than to the other name here. A wide Value gap usually means the market already prices the difference in quality or growth — which is the trade-off this comparison comes down to.
