That ADP nosedive over the past year has been pretty wild. Just last summer it was hanging out around 320, and here we are at 225.31. The drop from fall into early spring was brutal (saw it dip under 200 at one point), and while there’s been a little bounce lately, it still feels like the dust hasn’t totally settled. So yeah, I’m bullish from here, but this is definitely a more medium risk shot for me. There’s real value to be had with ADP at these levels. The company’s core business payroll and HR software is still sticky as hell. Churn stays low because once companies are plugged in, it’s not worth the pain to switch. Plus, as labor markets stay tight, employers keep spending on these platforms to stay compliant and organized. Not flashy, but steady. I’m also thinking the recent cost cutting and automation pushes are going to start showing up in margins over the next few quarters. If they get any positive surprises out of client adds or guide higher on their next earnings call, the stock should climb back toward 260.00. That’s my target price. It’s not back to former highs, but it’s a decent recovery, and I don’t see the old support around 200 breaking without a macro shock. The main risk? Corporate budgets are slimming down if there’s a true recession and companies tighten up even more, you could see deal delays or a squeeze on ADP’s pricing power. That would drag out the recovery a lot longer. Earnings next quarter are the big one to watch. If management sounds upbeat or books show stabilization, I think we finally get a break in the negative sentiment. Until then, just gotta stay patient with this one. Anyone else holding through the chop?
