HCA Healthcare, Inc. (HCA) forecast

HCA Healthcare, Inc. (HCA) forecast: price $459.46, trailing P/E 15.33, forward P/E 15.57. How to read the street's path.

The live HCA price is $459.46. Trailing P/E is 15.33 and forward P/E is 15.57. 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.
