The price needs 23.0% growth a year for ten years. The AI thinks 17.0% is achievable, at a 30.0% margin.
Seagate is printing very high margins and cash flow because AI data centers need cheap, high-capacity storage and supply is tight. The stock price already assumes this boom continues at an extremely fast pace for a decade. Once new capacity or alternative technologies arrive, margins will likely settle lower, so the current valuation leaves little room for disappointment.
