• Strong Resistance: $430.47 (Aug 18 high) — key breakout trigger

• Immediate Pivot: $365.38 (today's high) — intraday breakout level

Valuation Perspective: TTM P/E of 22.17 sits well below historical average forward P/E of 29.99, and at the low end of the -1 Std.Dev range (21.56). P/S of 4.75 and P/B of 4.81 remain premium but justified by 22.50% ROE. Dividend yield 1.32%.

Analyst Targets: 31 analysts cover INTU with average target of $437.18 (median implied ~20.6% upside). Distribution: 9 Strong Buy, 13 Buy, 12 Hold, 2 Underperform. Target range: $250–$921.

Weekly Outlook: Expect consolidation between $349–$375 ahead of Aug 25 earnings. A break above $365.38 opens path toward $385, then $400 psychological level. Failure at $349 risks retest of $330–$340 support zone. Earnings reaction will determine medium-term direction given the wide analyst target dispersion.
