What the numbers say
CleaRank Financial AI's reading of ASML's valuation, growth and risks.
ASML Holding N.V. NY Registered Shares (ASML) trades at 40.39 times trailing earnings, a multiple that is 15.1% above the Technology sector median of 35.1.

- The two closest levels to keep an eye on are the 20-day EMA, at $1,734.73 overhead, and the 200-day SMA, at $1,577.22 underneath.
- The 14-day RSI reads 37.7, in the bearish zone, with the MACD line negative; readings above 70 or below 30 mark stretched momentum.
- After the October 14, 2026 report the share price rose 0.45% in the first session; ASML beat estimates in 5 of the last 5 reports.
The trend is mixed: ASML is above its 200-day average at $1,577.22 but below its 50-day average at $1,739.63. A close above the 50-day would turn both signals up, and a close below the 200-day would turn both down. In the meantime the price sits between the 200-day SMA ($1,577.22) underneath and the 20-day EMA ($1,734.73) overhead.
The RSI sits in the bearish band, which leans against a quick recovery.

Monte Carlo projection
Thousands of simulated paths for $10,000 in ASML, from its own past volatility. The shaded area holds 80% of them.
CleaRank's 10-year Monte Carlo simulation projects that a $10,000 investment in ASML today could grow to about $29,551 by 2036 in the base case, with a 90th-percentile outcome near $146,205 and a 10th-percentile outcome around $5,973. The simulation models price only; at today's 0.55% yield, dividends would add to these figures. Projections are statistical simulations, not guarantees.

The same simulation in share prices, year by year.
