This article analyzes Waste Management (WM) stock valuation, which has seen strong share gains over multiple years. Using a Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) model, Simply Wall St estimates WM to be undervalued by 18.6%, with an intrinsic value of $298.64 per share. However, when comparing its P/E ratio of 36.20x to an industry average of 25.69x and a proprietary “Fair Ratio” of 31.67x, the stock appears somewhat overvalued, suggesting mixed signals about its current market price.
