Daily closes. Earnings/event dots inline.
A consensus fair price across 14 valuation methods, at three horizons. Current price $345.21. As of 2026-07-08. Estimates are diagnostics, not price targets. Short-horizon estimates are close to coin-flips, so confidence is a method-agreement read, not a prediction.
Today's peer multiple on trailing earnings, with no growth credited. This is the headline read.
Adds projected growth, so it leans optimistic by design. Read it as upside context, not a base case.
A long-thesis check that carries the widest uncertainty of the three horizons.
Bottom 25% on quality vs scored peers
Direction of the business behind the multiple. Bands are backend reads; trailing-12-month basis.
We take the 12-month fair value above and grade our own number — how the market prices this name versus what we'd justify, and where the two diverge.
At $345 HD trades at 24× p/e, in line with its 23× p/e peer median — but our blended $279 fair value sits below the price. We hold it with medium confidence: our number sits below the analyst range. Analysts target $320–$425. Note: our $279 fair value sits below the entire analyst range ($320–$425). Even valued only for durable growth at sustainable margins, it's worth about $371 — above today's price, so the premium reflects that growth case, not pure multiple expansion. Not investment advice.

One valuation read at a 12-month horizon, plus how price compares to peers and the company's own history.
Only weak execution quality — not the full expensive x weak x turbulent stack. Regime (Mania) does not concentrate fragility.
For similar setups historically (n=20,154): about 33% saw a 20%+ drawdown, and roughly 76% of those did not recover within the year. These are historical base rates for the cohort, not a forecast of this stock.
These describe the expectations embedded in the price, not a forecast of the move. Reverse-DCF base: $18.05/sh owner earnings.
Roughly priced in line with peers.
Around its own typical valuation.
