The read, from its own figures
What its numbers say
- EL closes above its 50-day average ($100.45), and the 50-day sits above the 200-day ($91.52): on both averages the chart reads as an uptrend.
- At $106.13, EL is 12.8% below its 1-year high of $121.64, set on February 3, 2026, and 60.3% above its 1-year low of $66.22 (April 2, 2026).
- Over the past month EL rose 15.4%, from $91.97 to $106.13.
- EL trades at 212.3x its last twelve months of earnings and 26.9x the next twelve months' estimate, so analysts expect earnings 689.8% higher.
- Its P/E is 758.9% above the 24.7x median of the 3 other household & personal products companies we track (PG, CL, KMB).
- EL's 30-day volatility, 32.0% a year, works out to a typical daily move of about 2.0%.
- Yahoo Finance puts its beta at 1.23: over five years of monthly returns, EL moved about 1.23% for each 1% move of the S&P 500.
- The last session traded 1.5x EL's average daily volume of the 30 sessions before it.
What would change the read
- A close under the 50-day average, $100.45 (−5.4% from the last close), would turn the read to a pullback; under the 200-day, $91.52 (−13.8%), the longer rise is in question.
- A close above $121.64 (+14.6%) would be a new 1-year high; below $66.22 (−37.6%), a new 1-year low.
How it is computed
- Prices are Yahoo Finance's daily candles for EL, the same ones the chart below draws; the P/E, forward P/E and beta are Yahoo Finance quote fields.
- The averages are simple means of the last 50 and 200 closes; the 1-year high and low are the highest high and lowest low of the last 252 sessions; the 30-day volatility is the standard deviation of the past month's daily returns, annualized with the square root of 252.
- Peers are the other companies Yahoo Finance files under household & personal products among the assets we track, not a full industry screen; the median counts those with a positive P/E.
- Every sentence here is written by code from those figures, refreshed daily; nobody edits it for EL by hand. It describes what the price and the multiples have done, not what they will do, and it is not advice.
