Additionally, the lack of proprietary trading signals and recent stock decline suggest waiting for a more favorable entry point.

Analysts are overwhelmingly positive, with multiple firms raising price targets significantly (e.g., Barclays to $675, Deutsche Bank to $550, and UBS to $510). Analysts highlight strong earnings, AI-driven demand, and structural supply tightness as key drivers. However, concerns about peak gross margins and higher capex in fiscal 2027 have tempered enthusiasm.
