This explanation uses an earlier data snapshot or evidence version. Review its generation date and the current figures, or refresh after signing in.
If you believe M can reaccelerate growth and expand margins toward STX-like levels, then hold or add selectively because the current valuation already sits near the top of its historical range despite weak operating momentum.
M trades at 10.0x P/E versus STX at 121.1x, which makes M look dramatically cheaper on earnings. However, STX also has much stronger operating performance, so the apparent discount for M is driven by quality differences rather than an obvious mispricing.
