INTRINSIC VALUE TODAY

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 7.9x Exit PE.
In-depth Analysis How we analyze
Valuation Analysis: MAN is currently trading at $36.33, which is considered extended relative to its 30-day fair value range of $29.05 to $31.94. From a valuation perspective, the stock is trading at a premium (Forward PE: 8.8) compared to its historical average (7.9). At these levels, the market is pricing in 3.5% annual earnings growth.
Technical Outlook: Technically, MAN is in a strong downtrend. The price is approaching resistance at $35.34. A breakout above this level would be a bullish signal, while rejection here could lead to consolidation. The stock is showing strong short-term momentum, up 9.1% recently.
Market Sentiment: MAN has a strong technical setup (75/100), with favorable trendlines, momentum, and price action for short-term traders. Wall Street analysts see significant upside, with an average price target of $38.67 (+16.2%). The stock is fairly positioned - fine to hold existing positions or accumulate slowly on dips, but not an urgent buy.
