  • Why FTSE 250 Growth and Dividend Stocks Remain Undervalued
    June 6, 2026, 3:22 AM EDT. The FTSE 250 index has climbed 12% in the past year, yet some stocks still trade cheaply compared to the S&P 500. Grainger, a residential real estate investment trust (REIT), offers a 5.3% dividend yield and a low price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 9.4, supported by rental growth amid the UK housing shortage. Rathbones, an asset manager, trades at a P/E-to-growth (PEG) ratio of 0.4, signaling undervaluation, with a 5.4% dividend yield driven by demographic shifts and recent acquisitions. Hollywood Bowl, a leisure operator, also appears undervalued with a PEG ratio of 0.9 despite recent share price gains. These factors highlight continued bargain opportunities in FTSE 250 stocks.
