What the numbers say
CleaRank Financial AI's reading of TJX's valuation, growth and risks.
At a trailing P/E of 26.53, TJX is valued against a Consumer Cyclical median of 20.8, a gap of 27.5% above the sector median P/E. The peer comparison on this page gives the P/E verdict as a premium to peers. The price-to-sales ratio of 2.55 is 34.2% above the sector median P/S of 1.9. TJX has a market capitalisation of $162.1B and trailing earnings of $5.45 per share.
TJX is growing more slowly than its sector: revenue rose 5.40% in the latest year, while the sector median is 7.2%. The company converts sales into profit at a net margin of 9.73% and an operating margin of 10.91%. Its return on equity of 62.17% is above the sector median of 12.4%. On the balance sheet, debt-to-equity stands at 1.34, and the trailing dividend yield is 1.23%, equal to $1.81 paid per share each year.
TJX's latest report, dated August 19, 2026, beat the estimate by 14.29%: adjusted EPS came in at $1.36 against a $1.19 estimate. Even so, the stock fell 2.64% in the following session.
TJX has beaten the EPS estimate in all 8 of its recent reports; even so, 5 of those 8 beats were followed by a lower share price the next session. Analysts' average EPS estimate for this fiscal year is $5.25, which would be growth of 11.0%, and $5.77 for next year (growth of 10.0%).
TJX's P/E of 26.53 sits 27.5% above the sector median, which places the stock at a premium to peers and means that weaker results would face a higher bar. The 30-day standard deviation of its daily returns is 1.41%. Insiders sold $41.8M over the last 18 months and bought $4K. Sales of this kind are often planned in advance, so they carry less weight than purchases would.

CleaRank AI analysis of TJX
The score, the reasoning behind it, and what could move the price next.
TJX, The TJX Companies, Inc., shows a mixed trend: at $147.33 the stock is 7.24% above its 50-day average of $137.39, yet 2.94% below its 200-day average of $151.79. The 50-day average is 9.49% below the 200-day, a sign that the recent recovery has yet to reach the longer-run averages. Over the past year, the price sits 20.00% above the 52-week low of $122.78 and 13.34% below the 52-week high of $170.00.
Momentum is running hot: the 14-day RSI sits at 74.8, in the overbought zone, and the MACD line is positive. The short and long views disagree, though. Over the past month the price climbed 19.94%, while over the past three months it slipped 4.62%. Across the past year it still managed to rise 3.35%.

- The two closest levels to watch are the 200-day SMA at $151.79, which sits above the price, and the 20-day EMA at $138.05, which sits below it.
- A 14-day RSI of 74.8 places the reading in the overbought zone, and the MACD line is positive. Readings above 70 or below 30 would signal stretched momentum.
- TJX fell 2.64% in the first session after its August 19, 2026 report, even though it has beaten estimates in 8 of the last 8 reports.
TJX presents a mixed trend. The price sits above its 50-day average of $137.39 but under its 200-day average of $151.79. Should the price close above the 200-day, both signals would point up; a close below the 50-day would flip both to down. Looking at nearby levels, the 20-day EMA at $138.05 lies beneath the price, and the 200-day SMA at $151.79 lies above it.
The RSI is stretched above the overbought line, so a cooling of momentum would not be unusual even inside the uptrend.

Monte Carlo projection
Thousands of simulated paths for $10,000 in TJX, 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 TJX today could grow to about $24,140 by 2036 in the base case, with a 90th-percentile outcome near $70,248 and a 10th-percentile outcome around $8,295. The simulation models price only; at today's 1.23% yield, dividends would add to these figures. Projections are statistical simulations, not guarantees.
TJX Stock Price Prediction: 2030
The same simulation in share prices, year by year.
CleaRank's simulation projects a price near $210 for TJX by 2030 in the base case, from $147 today (1.4x over 4 years). The 10th-percentile path ends near $107. These are outcomes of a Monte Carlo simulation run on TJX's historical return distribution, not price targets, and they assume no dividends are reinvested.
