Full Graham Analysis

Mr. Market is currently offering GameStop Corp. at $23.84.

The business passes only 3 of 7 of Graham's defensive criteria — well below his required standard.

At $23.84, the stock trades at a 64% premium to its Graham Number of $14.50. Graham would consider this price speculative.

There is no margin of safety at the current price. Graham would advise patience and waiting for a better entry point.

Trading at 2.1x NCAV. Expected for most quality businesses — NCAV was designed to find depression-era bargains and rarely applies to modern profitable companies..

Conclusion: By Graham's standards, this stock is speculative at its current price. The intelligent investor would look elsewhere or wait.

Graham's Fair Value and NCAV are conservative floors rooted in 1930s–60s principles. EPV assumes zero growth. None are price targets — they are reference points for judging whether the current price offers a margin of safety.
