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 12.5x Exit PE.

In-depth Analysis How we analyze

Valuation Analysis: WFC is currently trading at $90.49, which is considered fair relative to its 30-day fair value range of $88.56 to $95.45. The stock's valuation (Forward PE: 11.4) is in line with its historical norms (12.5). Remarkably, the market is currently pricing in an annual earnings decline of 3.0% over the next few years. This pessimistic expectation contrasts with the company's recent 13.0% earnings growth, suggesting potential undervaluation if the company simply maintains stability.

Technical Outlook: Technically, WFC is in a strong uptrend. The price is approaching resistance at $91.05. A breakout above this level would be a bullish signal, while rejection here could lead to consolidation.

Market Sentiment: The stock shows a mixed technical setup (40/100), with neutral trendline and momentum signals. Wall Street analysts see significant upside, with an average price target of $100.48 (+10.9%). Combining these factors, the current setup offers a favorable risk/reward ratio for buyers.
