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: TXN is currently trading at $215.55, which is considered extended relative to its 30-day fair value range of $177.23 to $201.56. The stock's valuation (Forward PE: 28.5) is in line with its historical norms (29.3). Remarkably, the market is currently pricing in an annual earnings decline of 0.9% over the next few years. This aligns with recent fundamental challenges.

Technical Outlook: Technically, TXN is in a uptrend. The price is approaching resistance at $222.00. A breakout above this level would be a bullish signal, while rejection here could lead to consolidation.

Market Sentiment: TXN 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.
