When consensus data is reliable, one anchor is enough.
SS-US uses Wall Street consensus EPS as its starting point,
adjusts for quality and current market regime,
and outputs a 4-scenario target price range.
The Korean SS-Code needs two anchors because consensus coverage is sparse. The US is different. Consensus data is abundant and reasonably accurate — one anchor is sufficient to produce a reliable target price.
Applied to stocks where Wall Street consensus EPS is available. Consensus serves as the anchor, adjusted by quality score and regime multiple to compute the target price. One starting point produces a clean, unambiguous output.
Most Korean small-caps lack sell-side coverage. Two anchors are used simultaneously — current price (Path A) and sector-average PER (Path B). The gap between them reveals undervaluation or overvaluation.
What they share: Both receive the Regime Engine's current output as an input and adjust target PER dynamically. The same company receives a higher target in BULL conditions and a more conservative one in CRISIS conditions.
SS-US takes four key inputs: consensus EPS, quality score, regime, and BPS. These combine to generate a 4-scenario target price output.
Wall Street analyst consensus forward EPS. The core anchor for target price calculation. If a Top-Down Beat prediction exists for the stock, the corrected EPS is used instead.
Composite measure of profitability, growth, and financial health. Higher quality justifies a premium PER above the market average; lower quality warrants a discount.
Current market regime determines the PER band boundaries. Multiples expand in GOLDILOCKS and contract in CRISIS. The same stock receives different target prices across regimes.
Used as the minimum floor for the downside scenario. No target price output falls below BPS regardless of how the other inputs are configured.
A single target price hides its assumptions. SS-US presents four scenario-based levels — each with transparent logic the investor can evaluate directly.
Target prices that move with the regime.
SS-US queries the current US Regime Engine output as an input on every run. The same stock produces a higher target in BULL conditions and a more conservative one in UNSTABLE conditions. Always check the regime before running SS-US.
Before computing anything, SS-US queries the current US regime. The regime determines the PER band upper and lower limits that will be applied throughout the rest of the calculation.
Current regime → PER band setThis is SS-US's single starting anchor. If a Top-Down corrected EPS exists for the stock, it takes priority over raw consensus.
Anchor PER confirmedThe bottom-up quality score is applied to the anchor PER. High-quality companies receive a premium PER; lower-quality companies receive a discount. The result is the target PER.
Target PER confirmedTarget PER × consensus EPS = P_target. Regime band adjustments produce P_high and P_low. BPS floor is applied to P_low. If a Beat prediction exceeds consensus by 25%+, P_surprise is generated as an additional upside scenario.
