MMM
Stock3M Company
One email when a drop — in price or in valuation — is historically rare for MMM. Otherwise we stay quiet.
Bigger than its usual dip. Not yet rare.
3M Company is 10.3% off its high — deeper than its 3.9% average pullback, but it has been through 280 drawdowns before. Not historically significant yet — we'll say so if that changes.
But down is not the same as cheap: 3M Company's P/S Severity Score is 0.0 — its valuation sits in or above its typical range.
