Bottom line
ITW is trading near its usual valuation, near its historical support zone, and recent volume suggests money flowing in. Historically, this combination has been a favourable starting point for further research. Past patterns are not a guarantee of future results.
Valuation — Trading near its usual range (Yellow)
ITW trades at 25× earnings, roughly in line with its own 5-year average of 25× and roughly in line with similar industrials companies we track (28×, 74 peers). That is roughly what the market has typically paid for this stock. Its free-cash-flow yield is about 3.7%. Its current multiple sits around the 82nd percentile of its own last five years — toward the high end of its own range.
