Updated Nov 8, 2026 · Web page: https://predictionverifier.com/fair-values/joseph-carlson-doordash-fair-value-2026-11/

On November 2, 2026, Joseph Carlson estimated the fair value of DoorDash at $250 per share on YouTube. DoorDash closed at $178.99 on October 30, 2026, the trading day before, so the estimate was 40% above the price when said. Joseph Carlson gave no date by which the price should reach it, so this is a fair value estimate, not a prediction: we record it as said and do not mark it as Hit or Missed.

> For example, my fair value of DoorDash is 250.

Carlson said DoorDash is in land-grab mode, optimizing for growth rather than near-term earnings, which makes its current P/E look high. He pointed to its agreement to buy Instacart as a way to grow from restaurant delivery into retail.

A fair value estimate is the speaker's view of what an asset is worth, given without a date by which the price should get there. With no deadline there is nothing to check, so we record the estimate as said, next to the close of the day before, and never mark it as Hit or Missed.

It's trading at 186 today. There's concerns about beef pricing and commodity inflation, but I believe that Texas Roadhouse will navigate that better than any of its competitors, which creates that really strong traffic growth in the company. We have KPIs that track this over time and it shows that the weekly average sales for the company continue to rise. They're now making $177,000 in sales every week on average. When I was first buying this company, it was less than a 100K. So, really impressive growth there. I really like what I see with this company. But, in terms of my fair value, I believe it's worth today around $200 per share.” |
