Capitalization growth is likely in the coming months. The average target for Zoom is 20% above the current one. The overall consensus among Wall Street analysts is to hold. However, technical analysis tools are giving a signal to sell.

The ZM rating is Buy and Strong Buy on older timeframes. But it is Strong sell on lower time frames. The stock is moving in a wide horizontal channel. All signs point to its preservation:

• There are bullish and bearish patterns on different timeframes. 

• There were 5 red and 5 green days in the last 10 days.

In the event of a reversal, the resistance line could be the $85.64 level. A breach of these levels is a signal to buy. If the fall continues, then the next support line can be found at the level of $78.29.

The 12-month price rise is in excess of 20%. Most ZM asset projects for the next 5 years are bullish. But on a 5-year horizon, the average price target represents the $80-$90 level. The most optimistic scenario is an increase in capitalization of more than 2 times. 

Proponents of this position point out that Zoom's strength is its good financial performance. First and foremost, annual earnings growth and a stable cash flow. The latter allows the corporation to invest in new developments and to acquire promising start-ups.

In addition, the services provided by Zoom have an advantage over the competition:

• Easy to understand interface;

• Paid and free features that make it easy to use applications;

• Top perform platform.

The bears pay attention to the weaknesses of ZM. First of all, the insufficient level of information protection. The most pessimistic forecast is the loss of more than 70% of the capitalization by 2029.

The experts at the Motley Fool believe that the likelihood of such a decline is very low. At the same time, however, they cite weak diversification and limited development opportunities.

The positive expectations for ZM quotes are based on the expansion of the corporate segment. In 2023, earnings growth in this segment will be 8%. In 2024, if Zoom has success in its plans, this parameter will reach double digits. We can also hope for the stabilization of the online segment.

However, the forecasts are mostly moderate. And some analysts are even lowering their price targets. The reason is the slow development of the business.

• $70 — Wells Fargo;

• $85 — Barclays;

• $105 — Mizuho;

• $115 — Evercore ISI Group.

In the last few years, the cost of Zoom has been in a sideways trend. Analysts expect that in 2025 the prices will leave the narrow corridor. However, forecasts about the direction of movement differ. 

The bears' projection is a decline in value. Their argument is a weak business model. The bulls expect an expansion of services. They believe that ZM is poised to create video-based social networks. Another interesting direction is the addition of live translation scenarios.

In 2027, the Stock Analysis Platform expects financial performance to deteriorate compared to 2026. Nevertheless, some services predict stable growth.
