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 13.1x Exit PE.

In-depth Analysis How we analyze

Valuation Analysis: PPG is currently trading at $113.63, which is considered oversold relative to its 30-day fair value range of $113.00 to $117.74. The stock's valuation (Forward PE: 13.1) is in line with its historical norms (13.1). At these levels, the market is pricing in 0.0% annual earnings growth.

Technical Outlook: Technically, PPG is in a uptrend. The price is currently testing key support at $111.34. A bounce from this level would confirm strength, while a break below could signal further downside.

Market Sentiment: The stock scores a mixed 41/100 on our bottoming-setup gauge, with only partial signs of a stabilized entry point. Wall Street analysts see significant upside, with an average price target of $126.20 (+11.1%). Current signals suggest waiting for a better entry point before initiating new positions.
