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 22.8x Exit PE.

In-depth Analysis How we analyze

Valuation Analysis: NFLX is currently trading at $67.28, which is considered oversold relative to its 30-day fair value range of $67.74 to $74.22. From a valuation perspective, the stock is trading at a discount (Forward PE: 17.1) compared to its historical average (22.8). Remarkably, the market is currently pricing in an annual earnings decline of 9.1% over the next few years. This pessimistic expectation contrasts with the company's recent 11.1% earnings growth, suggesting potential undervaluation if the company simply maintains stability.

Technical Outlook: Technically, NFLX is in a downtrend. Immediate support is located at $64.10, while resistance sits at $73.07. The stock is showing strong short-term momentum, up 3.5% recently.

Market Sentiment: NFLX scores 34/100 on our bottoming-setup gauge. Note this measures entry quality, not trend direction — a low score can mean the chart is extended after a strong run (don't chase) or still falling without stabilization; better entries typically come after a pullback toward the 20-day average. Wall Street analysts see significant upside, with an average price target of $90.75 (+39.5%). Current signals suggest waiting for a better entry point before initiating new positions.
