What the price assumes
Your guesses, our math
Move the sliders to your own view of WLK. Starting points are the company's recent numbers (it isn't profitable yet, so the margin starts at a 10% guess).
Sales in 5 years$9.2B
Profit in 5 years$921M
Price these guesses point to$108.09+65% vs $65.31 todayAbout +11% a year, before dividends
What today's price needs: with a 10% margin and a 15x P/E, sales could shrink about 13% a year for 5 years and still match today's price.
Simple math on your guesses, not a forecast or a price target. Real results depend on many things these sliders leave out.
Forum talk counts mentions of WLK in popular online stock forums, a slice of the internet rather than all of it. Company lookups show interest in the company itself, which can come from news that isn't about the stock. Attention isn't quality.
