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 19.7x Exit PE.
In-depth Analysis How we analyze
Valuation Analysis: KMI is currently trading at $30.49, which is considered extended relative to its 30-day fair value range of $26.92 to $29.20. The stock's valuation (Forward PE: 20.7) is in line with its historical norms (19.7). At these levels, the market is pricing in 1.5% annual earnings growth. This growth rate appears achievable given the company's track record, suggesting the valuation is rational.
Technical Outlook: Technically, KMI is in a downtrend. The price is approaching resistance at $30.57. A breakout above this level would be a bullish signal, while rejection here could lead to consolidation.
Market Sentiment: KMI has a strong technical setup (60/100), 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.
