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 14.6x Exit PE.

In-depth Analysis How we analyze

Valuation Analysis: NTRS is currently trading at $149.43, which is considered extended relative to its 30-day fair value range of $140.21 to $148.64. The stock's valuation (Forward PE: 13.7) is in line with its historical norms (14.6). Remarkably, the market is currently pricing in an annual earnings decline of 2.2% over the next few years. This pessimistic expectation contrasts with the company's recent 7.3% earnings growth, suggesting potential undervaluation if the company simply maintains stability.

Technical Outlook: Technically, NTRS is in a strong uptrend. Immediate support is located at $140.39, while resistance sits at $157.60.

Market Sentiment: NTRS 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.
