Percentile across ~4,600 US stocks on Ticker Nerd’s systematic factor model. Higher is better. How the model is built and tested
Value (67): The shares cost little relative to the profits and assets behind them — which can mean the market is too gloomy, or that the business really is in trouble.
Momentum (34): The shares have been drifting down relative to others.
Size (5): Larger than most of the companies we track — more scrutinised, less often mispriced.

As at 23 Oct 2026, CRH Plc ranks 33 out of 100 on Ticker Nerd's systematic factor model — a percentile across roughly 4,600 US stocks, built from its factor families. Its strongest factor family is Value (67 of 100).

Sites quoting a 2030 price for CRH are extrapolating price history, which says nothing about the business. The furthest attributed numbers are the current analyst targets: $96 to $160 over the next 12 months.
