Ciena Corporation (CIEN) forecast
Ciena Corporation (CIEN) forecast: price $322.70, trailing P/E 78.21, forward P/E 45.04. How to read the street's path.
The live CIEN price is $322.70. Trailing P/E is 78.21 and forward P/E is 45.04. The forecast that matters is the earnings path those ratios imply, not a single target price.
A forward P/E below the trailing P/E means the consensus expects earnings to rise. The reverse means the market is looking at a peak. Neither is a schedule. Analyst targets are useful as a range of models. They are not a contract. Discounted cash flow is the long form: cash flows, a discount rate, and a terminal value you can argue with.
