Stock is trading at around $400 on the news, which implies a PE of 23x; which is well below the recent levels where it was over 30x. P/S is around 9x; which is also on the low end.
A simple model I use suggests EPS of around $20.00 and Revenue of $387B in the next 4 quarters and a valuation range of 26xEPS and 10xPS ; or roughly $525 - $550 / share give or take. I have been a net buyer this year with adds at $389, $402, $399, $411, $426 and $482 (was a bit early to pull on that in hindsight). My overall costs basis is in the low $40s however.
My overall sentiment remains bullish, but no need to be adding any more given the relative size of this in my portfolio is large as it is.
