3M EPS Earnings Projections

3M EPS Earnings Projections

MMM like most companies in the consumables sector is expected to take a drubbing, at least, as far as its earnings are concerned. So its no wonder the EPS is projected to trend downwards until early 2021. Having said that, stocks tend to price the worst long before the turnaround kicks in. Hence, long term investors would be well advised to establish positions in this company during the current panic stage. One should buy when the masses are in a state of disarray. EPS is set to trend upwards after 2021 so the overall long term outlook for this stock is bullish.

 

MMM Analyst price targets

Nothing much to add here other than the analysts are generally on the wrong side of the fence. Hence take whatever they say with a jar of salt.  Their mean target is 151.56, we suspect that in 12 months MMM will be trading north of  222 and as high as 240.00

From a long term perspective, 3M is a screaming buy as it’s trading in the insanely oversold ranges on the monthly charts. One should buy when there is blood flowing on the streets and sell when the masses are jumping up in joy. A monthly close above 180 will indicate that the stock is ready to trend upwards and should result in a test of the 222 to 228 ranges with a possible overshoot all the way to 240.00.  We would use strong pullbacks to add to or open new positions.

90% of individuals are now part of the “polarised equation” and therefore the crowd is going to be very easy to manipulate. If you want to rob or manipulate a person without almost any resistance, give them a false narrative to believe in, one that makes their blood boil and then it’s game over for the lemmings. In others, enter the world of misdirection; the ploy is to direct their attention to things that don’t matter but elicit a strong emotional response. Once the response is elicited they are tied in this loop and cannot see or focus on anything else.

While misdirection is nefarious, it’s a brilliant strategy, it was used in Brexit,  and it is increasingly being used in every election, and it’s now being used ruthlessly in Europe.  Even though the Alt-right trend briefly slowed down in Europe, those that concluded it had ended have made a fatal mistake. Misdirection And Upcoming Trends For 2020 And Beyond
