How this is calculated: We use a Growth Decay Model: starting with analyst consensus growth (adjusted above) and gradually slowing it down to a long-term terminal rate (4%) by Year 5. This provides a more realistic valuation than assuming constant hyper-growth. We then apply a 25.0x Exit PE.

In-depth Analysis How we analyze

Valuation Analysis: ORCL is currently trading at $164.58, which is considered oversold relative to its 30-day fair value range of $177.92 to $199.46. From a valuation perspective, the stock is trading at a discount (Forward PE: 21.3) compared to its historical average (26.6). Remarkably, the market is currently pricing in an annual earnings decline of 7.1% over the next few years. This pessimistic expectation contrasts with the company's recent 90.9% earnings growth, suggesting potential undervaluation if the company simply maintains stability.

Technical Outlook: Technically, ORCL is in a strong downtrend. The price is currently testing key support at $161.52. A bounce from this level would confirm strength, while a break below could signal further downside.

Market Sentiment: ORCL has a weak technical setup (25/100), with bearish trendlines and momentum suggesting caution for short-term entries. Wall Street analysts see significant upside, with an average price target of $288.26 (+70.6%). The stock is fairly positioned - fine to hold existing positions or accumulate slowly on dips, but not an urgent buy.
