Charter Communications, Inc. (CHTR)
Communication Services · Telecommunications Services · Data as of 2026-10-22
Bottom line
CHTR is trading near its usual valuation, in the middle of its recent price range, and recent volume suggests money flowing out. The picture is mixed, so it may be worth watching rather than acting on. Past patterns are not a guarantee of future results.
Valuation — Cheap-looking, with quality flags (Yellow)
CHTR trades at 2.9× earnings, below its own 5-year average of 12× and below similar communication services companies we track (18×, 18 peers). Historically this has been on the cheaper side for the stock. It also generates strong cash: a free-cash-flow yield of about 29%. One caution: revenue has been shrinking, so the low multiple may reflect a weakening business rather than a bargain. Its current multiple sits around the 0th percentile of its own last five years — toward the low end of its own range.
Quality check: operating profit covers interest only 2.6× over. An apparent discount can reflect balance-sheet strain rather than a bargain.
Price zones — In the middle of its recent range (Yellow)
At $111.77, the stock sits between its recent support and resistance levels. Over the past year CHTR has traded between $101.63 and $254.11; its historical support zone sits near $101.63 and resistance near $129.46. It is below both its 50- and 200-day averages, which has historically signalled a downtrend.
52-week range $101.63–$254.11 · 50-day average $129.46 · 200-day average $167.85
Money flow — Money is flowing out (Red)
Recent trading in CHTR shows more volume on falling days than rising days, a pattern often described as distribution. Volume on up days has been about 0.5× volume on down days over the last 30 sessions.

一句话结论
CHTR 估值接近其惯常水平,处于近期价格区间的中部,近期成交量显示资金正在流出。整体情况好坏参半,也许更适合先观察,而不是急于行动。过去的形态并不能保证未来的结果。
估值 — 看似便宜,但有质量警示
CHTR 目前的市盈率为 2.9×,低于其自身 5 年平均的 12×,并且低于我们追踪的同类Communication Services公司(18×,18 家)。从历史来看,这属于该股较便宜的一侧。它同时产生充沛的现金:自由现金流收益率约为 29%。有一点需要留意:营收一直在萎缩,因此较低的估值倍数可能反映的是业务转弱,而非便宜。它当前的估值倍数大约位于自身过去五年分布的第 0 百分位——处于自身区间的偏低位置。
质量核对:营业利润对利息的覆盖只有 2.6 倍。表面的折价有时反映的是资产负债表的压力,而不是便宜。
价格区间 — 处于近期区间的中部
目前价格为 $111.77,位于其近期的支撑位与阻力位之间。过去一年 CHTR 的价格在 $101.63 到 $254.11 之间波动;其历史支撑区在 $101.63 附近,阻力区在 $129.46 附近。它同时位于 50 日和 200 日均线下方,这在历史上通常对应下降趋势。
资金流向 — 资金正在流出
CHTR 近期下跌日的成交量高于上涨日,这种形态常被称为派发。过去 30 个交易日,上涨日的成交量约为下跌日的 0.5×。
股息与公司概况
CHTR 不派发股息,但在 2025 财年回购了 51.1亿美元 的股票,约占市值的 33.9%。其股数过去一年减少了 14.4%,五年减少了 39.1%。
