CHKP Stock Earnings Per Share

Zachs is projecting that EPS will continue to rise well in 2022 and then peak. We think Zach’s is wrong on this front as the demand for cybersecurity will rise exponentially with the debut of bad AI. Bad AI entails organised crime using AI-based programs to seek security loopholes that can be exploited. The only way to deal with such programs will be for AI-based security programs to spot them and block those loopholes. Hence, we feel that the EPS will continue to trend upwards for the foreseeable future.

CHKP Stock Price Target for 2020 and beyond

There is a strong zone of resistance in the 109 to 114 ranges. A monthly close above 114 will pave the way for the CHKP to trade to the 128 to 132 ranges with a possible overshoot to 147. After that, the stock should pullback briefly and test the 114 to 119 ranges before going to put in a series of 52-week highs. Traders should view strong pullbacks through a bullish lens.
