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 10.4x Exit PE.

In-depth Analysis How we analyze

Valuation Analysis: SKM is currently trading at $28.19, which is considered extended relative to its 30-day fair value range of $19.56 to $24.77. From a valuation perspective, the stock is trading at a premium (Forward PE: 12.4) compared to its historical average (10.4). At these levels, the market is pricing in 6.2% annual earnings growth.

Technical Outlook: Technically, SKM is showing sideways momentum. The price is approaching resistance at $27.91. A breakout above this level would be a bullish signal, while rejection here could lead to consolidation.

Market Sentiment: SKM has a strong technical setup (60/100), with favorable trendlines, momentum, and price action for short-term traders. However, the stock is trading significantly above the average Wall Street target of $23.89. The stock is fairly positioned - fine to hold existing positions or accumulate slowly on dips, but not an urgent buy.
