This summary is put together from the numbers on the page and updates when they do. It describes the data; it is not a forecast or a recommendation.
Composite of 4 factors below, ranked against the 800 U.S. stocks BeStock covers.
Cheaper than usual on its own 5-year P/E history scores higher.
Higher trailing yield than most of BeStock’s coverage scores higher.
Trading closer to its 52-week high than most peers scores higher.
16 analysts, consensus Buy.
How this is scored: each factor above is a 0–100 percentile rank against every other stock BeStock covers (or, for Wall Street, against the five-point Strong Buy–Sell scale). The overall grade is the plain average of whichever factors apply to this stock — no factor is weighted more than another. That average maps to a letter: A ≥ 85, B ≥ 70, C ≥ 50, D ≥ 30, otherwise F. Recomputed from the data on this page as prices and filings update — it describes where a stock ranks today, not a forecast, and not a BeStock recommendation to buy or sell.
DG is not currently one of the 10 holdings in BeStock Momentum, our rules-based momentum strategy.
Since 2020-07-06, the strategy has returned 1524.8% (321.7% for the equal-weight average of BeStock’s coverage over the same stretch). Holdings can change any trading day, not just on a fixed schedule. Backtested performance, updated weekly — not a guarantee of future results, and not a BeStock recommendation.
What Wall Street analysts and Morningstar's fair-value model expect for the stock
Wall Street’s average 12-month target is $149.19, 24.6% above today’s price, with a consensus rating of Buy. Morningstar’s fair value model puts the stock at $131.00, so shares trade 8.6% below that estimate. On earnings multiple, it sits in the 23rd percentile of its own five-year valuation range (cheaper than usual).
Figures are Wall Street analyst consensus and Morningstar’s independent fair-value model, sourced as noted above.
