Best Buy Co., Inc. (BBY) stock analysis
BUY 38% confidence · analysed Oct 13, 2026
On Oct 13, 2026, our model rated Best Buy Co., Inc. (BBY) BUY with 38% confidence at a price of $86.99. That means most of the technical, fundamental, money-flow and news signals point to upside.
Technical picture
The 14-day RSI is 26, below 30, which is oversold territory: sellers have pushed hard recently. Oversold stocks often bounce, but they can stay weak for a while.
MACD is below its signal line, so short-term momentum is pointing down.
The price is above both its 50-day and 200-day moving averages, the classic picture of an uptrend.
Volume is only 0.8x its 20-day average; light trading makes the latest move less convincing.
Fundamentals
The PEG ratio is 1.66, which looks reasonably priced for its growth.
The company reports a profit margin of 3.0% and revenue growth of +3.6%.
In its latest quarter it earned $1.47 per share, which beat the $1.38 analysts expected, with revenue +3.6% year over year.
Wall Street's average rating is 2.8 on a 1 (strong buy) to 5 (sell) scale, roughly a "hold", with an average price target of $86.95.
The next earnings report is expected around Nov 24, 2026; prices often move sharply around earnings.
Trade plan from the model
The model's long / bullish plan uses an entry near $88.10, a target of $95.30 (+8.2%) and a stop-loss at $83.00 (-5.8%).
That is a reward-to-risk ratio of about 1.4 to 1: the potential gain is not much bigger than the loss, so the setup is marginal.
The plan has a time limit: reassess by Nov 3, 2026 whatever the price does.
