Trading above fair value
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 13.0x Exit PE.
In-depth Analysis How we analyze
Valuation Analysis: CDW is currently trading at $126.39, which is considered oversold relative to its 30-day fair value range of $127.25 to $137.00. The stock's valuation (Forward PE: 11.9) is in line with its historical norms (13.0). Remarkably, the market is currently pricing in an annual earnings decline of 2.9% over the next few years. This aligns with recent fundamental challenges.
Technical Outlook: Technically, CDW is in a strong downtrend. The price is currently testing key support at $123.08. A bounce from this level would confirm strength, while a break below could signal further downside.
Market Sentiment: CDW 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 $173.80 (+38.8%). The stock is fairly positioned - fine to hold existing positions or accumulate slowly on dips, but not an urgent buy.
