Joshua Chan has given his Hold rating due to a combination of factors related to Gartner’s stock performance and future growth prospects. The stock has experienced a significant decline year-to-date, and while there is potential for recovery, the outlook remains uncertain. Chan’s base-case scenario anticipates modest CV growth of 2.5% by the end of 2025, improving to 6.5% in 2026, which suggests a balanced risk-reward profile.
In a more optimistic scenario, CV growth could reach 8.0% in 2026 if certain trends normalize, potentially offering a substantial upside. However, in a less favorable scenario, prolonged challenges could limit growth to 4.4%. Despite the potential for valuation-based support, the current setup is seen as balanced due to the significant uncertainties surrounding the CV growth trajectory. This balanced outlook underpins the Hold rating, as the potential upside is countered by the risks of slower growth.
