Fundamental indicators:
- Revenue and Profits - has not demonstrated consistent long-term earnings growth over the past 10 years
- Profit margin - the company is quite effective with circa 16% for the last 3 years
- P/E - highly overpriced with 36x ratio considering this is not a growth company
- Liabilities - no problems
Technical analysis:
- The correction of March 2020 was formed by a rapid impulse
- Since then the bull run which has culminated in April 2022 was very choppy and unlikely to be impulse or ending diagonal
- This means that it was a complex wave B of the overall Running Flat correction and another rapid impulse may now take place
- In this scenario wave C is normally of the same amplitude as wave B hence the target of $48
