3-Month Forecast: Based on the provided data, BlackRocks stock (NYSE:BLK) is expected to trade in a range of $840 to $920 over the next three months. The stock is currently below its 200-day moving average ($940.82), indicating potential bearish momentum. However, the decreasing Average True Range (ATR: 34.06) suggests reduced volatility, which could lead to a sideways trading pattern. The forward P/E of 18.59 indicates a potential valuation floor, supported by stable earnings expectations. If the stock breaks above $906.10 (20-day SMA), it could test resistance at $936.35 (50-day SMA). Conversely, failure to hold above $840 could trigger a deeper correction.
