Technical Indicators

RSI (14)
49.9
Relative Strength Index (RSI): measures how fast and how much the price has moved recently, on a 0-100 scale. Above 70 is often called "overbought" (may be due for a pause or pullback); below 30 is "oversold" (may be due for a bounce). It is not a guarantee either way.
SMA 20 / 50 / 200
151.61 / 151.93 / 192.93
Moving Averages (SMA): the average closing price over the last N days, smoothing out day-to-day noise. When price trades above its moving averages, and shorter averages are above longer ones, it is generally read as a healthier trend.
MACD / Signal
-0.29 / -0.24
MACD: compares two moving averages (12-day and 26-day) to gauge momentum. When the MACD line crosses above its signal line, momentum is turning up; crossing below suggests momentum turning down.

Fundamentals

P/E
6.5
Price-to-Earnings ratio: how many dollars investors pay for $1 of the company's annual profit. Higher usually means the market expects faster growth (or the stock is expensive); lower can mean it's cheap — or that growth is expected to slow.
Market Cap
9.43B
Market Capitalization: the total value of all the company's shares — share price × number of shares. A rough measure of company size.
Div Yield
0.53%
Dividend Yield: the annual cash dividend paid to shareholders, as a percentage of the current share price.
52-Week Range
140.08 – 246.33
52-Week Range: the lowest and highest price the stock has traded at over the last year. Where the price sits in this range hints at recent strength or weakness.

Key Statistics

Enterprise Value
14.57B
Market cap plus total debt minus cash — what it would cost, in theory, to buy the whole company outright and pay off its debt.
Beta
1.08
How much this stock tends to move relative to the overall market. 1.0 = moves with the market; above 1.0 = more volatile; below 1.0 = less volatile.
EPS (TTM)
$23.95
Earnings per share over the trailing twelve months — net profit divided by shares outstanding.
Forward P/E
6.2
Price divided by analysts' expected earnings per share for the next 12 months, instead of the last 12.

Shares Outstanding
53.29M
