Should You Buy Entegris Inc (ENTG) Today? Analysis, Price Targets, and 2026 Outlook.
Analysis Updated At
2026/01/28
ENTG is NOT a good buy right now for a beginner long-term investor who is impatient about entry timing. The stock is in a strong uptrend but is currently extended (RSI ~74.7) and trading near key resistance (~122.4) with a statistically weaker 1-month near-term bias (-4.14%). With earnings on 2026-02-10 pre-market, the risk/reward for buying immediately is unfavorable versus waiting for either a post-earnings setup or a pullback toward support.
Technical Analysis
Trend is bullish: SMA_5 > SMA_20 > SMA_200 confirms a strong uptrend. MACD histogram is positive (0.998) but ‘positively contracting,’ suggesting upside momentum is slowing. RSI_6 at 74.693 indicates the stock is stretched/near overbought conditions, increasing the odds of a consolidation or pullback. Key levels: Pivot 113.696 (important near-term reference), Resistance R1 122.434 (price is close to this), R2 127.833. Supports: S1 104.958, S2 99.559. Pattern-based forward view provided: +0.28% next day, +1.07% next week, but -4.14% next month—consistent with short-term strength but increased pullback risk.
Analyst Ratings and Price Target Trends
Recent trend: price targets have been raised meaningfully by multiple firms in January (BMO to 126, Citi to 145, Needham to 150, KeyBanc to 111), reflecting improving sector sentiment and AI exposure. However, there are notable offsets: Seaport downgraded to Neutral (2026-01-23) and Goldman downgraded to Sell with a $75 target (2025-12-15), citing limited margin upside. Wall Street pros: recovery + AI tailwinds + potential margin improvement. Cons: disagreement on margin trajectory/positioning, and not all analysts see ENTG as a prime AI beneficiary.

According to Wall Street analysts, the average 1-year price target for ENTG is 98.29 USD with a low forecast of 75 USD and a high forecast of 115 USD.
