3-Month Forecast - Technical Outlook: The stock is likely to test its next resistance level above 115.06, with potential upside to 120.00. However, if support at 111.4 fails, the stock may consolidate between 107.4 and 111.4. The 50-day SMA (110.01) could act as a floor if the stock retraces. - Fundamental Outlook: The company is expected to maintain its profitability (RoE: 28.93%) as it continues to leverage its membership model and expand its e-commerce capabilities. However, the high P/E ratio (29.61) suggests elevated valuations, which may limit near-term upside. The forward P/E of 27.70 indicates market expectations of improving earnings. - Market Sentiment: The stock is likely to remain range-bound in the near term, with potential for a breakout above 120.00 if macroeconomic conditions improve and consumer spending remains resilient.
