 Methodology Note: These projections are based on a conservative annualized growth rate of ~9-10%, factoring in historical volatility, earnings growth estimates, and macroeconomic trends. They are not linear and include assumed periods of consolidation and correction, which are a normal part of market cycles. The "Base Case" represents a most-likely scenario, while "Bull" and "Bear" cases show deviations based on positive or negative catalysts. ⚠️ Critical Disclaimer: This is a theoretical forecasting exercise for informational and educational purposes only. It is NOT financial advice. The stock market is inherently unpredictable and influenced by countless unforeseen factors (geopolitics, pandemics, regulatory changes, etc.). These numbers are illustrative projections, not guarantees. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always conduct your own research and consult with a certified financial advisor before making any investment decisions. |
