Fair Value models

Bear $1.28 Fair Value $1.93 Bull $2.42
Price $2.36 · Downside -18.2%
Model ⓘEach model values the company its own way (discounted cash flow, earnings, assets, dividends). The fair value above starts from their evidence-weighted blend, not from a single model. In cyclical trough or peak years, after dilution or a stock split it is adjusted afterwards, so it can sit above or below the models. Bear ⓘBear = the cautious scenario: the same model computed with conservative anchors (lower growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bull it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target.BaseBull ⓘBull = the optimistic scenario: the same model computed with favourable anchors (higher growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bear it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target. If a model's bull case is above four times its base value, the table shows that limit with a > sign (like the overall Bull above): beyond it no assumption holds. Coverage ⓘCoverage = how well-backed THIS model's estimate is for this stock (0–100): how complete and reliable its input data are, and how well the model fits the company. The final Fair Value is an evidence-weighted blend, so better-evidenced models count more. Green ≥70, amber 50–69, grey below 50.

Is it still worth investing in stocks now?
The global stock market currently sits 13.3% above its aggregate fair value. MagnaChip Semiconductor itself currently trades above fair value.

The full picture including sectors is on is it worth investing now.
What is the share price of MagnaChip Semiconductor (MX)?

What should I pay attention to with MagnaChip Semiconductor right now?
Weak quality (47/100) and above fair value at the same time, the margin of safety is missing on both counts. A fairly wide model range ($1.28 to $2.42) leaves room in how you read the outcome. Evidence is limited here (fewer models, shorter history), so the fair value is a rougher estimate than usual.
