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 15.8x Exit PE.
In-depth Analysis How we analyze
Valuation Analysis: RUSHA is currently trading at $48.31, which is considered oversold relative to its 30-day fair value range of $57.13 to $84.62. The stock's valuation (Forward PE: 15.8) is in line with its historical norms (15.8). At these levels, the market is pricing in 0.0% annual earnings growth. This growth rate appears achievable given the company's track record, suggesting the valuation is rational.
Technical Outlook: Technically, RUSHA is showing sideways momentum. The price is currently testing key support at $48.02. A bounce from this level would confirm strength, while a break below could signal further downside.
Market Sentiment: The stock scores a mixed 45/100 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 $59.67 (+23.5%). Current signals suggest waiting for a better entry point before initiating new positions.
