NYSE:SCCO 1-Year Stock Price Chart How This Changes the Fair Value For Southern Copper

• There is a new price target for Southern Copper without a previous figure to compare against, so the adjustment itself is drawing attention rather than any measured change from an earlier level.
• With only the latest target available, you are effectively working with a single reference point for fair value instead of a trend or range built from multiple updates.
• The lack of historical target data means you may want to place more weight on your own assumptions, such as your outlook for copper demand, costs and balance sheet strength, rather than relying heavily on this one figure.
• This new target can still be useful as a yardstick, especially if you track how the market price compares with it over time, and watch for future revisions that either reinforce or challenge the current view.
• Because there is no prior target, it can help to look at how this figure sits relative to your preferred valuation tools, for example by comparing it with ratios such as P/E, P/B or cash flow based estimates you already use for your portfolio.
