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: GLW is currently trading at $103.25, which is considered extended relative to its 30-day fair value range of $86.43 to $98.33. The stock's valuation (Forward PE: 27.4) is in line with its historical norms (28.6). Remarkably, the market is currently pricing in an annual earnings decline of 1.4% over the next few years. This pessimistic expectation contrasts with the company's recent 350.0% earnings growth, suggesting potential undervaluation if the company simply maintains stability.

Technical Outlook: Technically, GLW is in a strong uptrend. Immediate support is located at $91.01, while resistance sits at $113.99.

Market Sentiment: GLW has a strong technical setup (75/100), with favorable trendlines, momentum, and price action for short-term traders. The stock is fairly positioned - fine to hold existing positions or accumulate slowly on dips, but not an urgent buy.
