Valued at $81.9 billion by market cap, Dell Technologies Inc. (DELL) operates as one of the largest laptop and PC companies in the world. The Round Rock, Texas-based PC designer operates through Infrastructure Solutions Group (ISG) and Client Solutions Group (CSG) segments. Its operations span numerous countries across the Americas, Indo-Pacific, and EMEA.
Companies worth $10 billion or more are generally described as "large-cap stocks." Dell fits right into that category, reflecting its significant presence and influence in the computer hardware industry.
Dell touched its all-time high of $150.23 on Jul. 9, 2024, and is currently trading 19.8% below its peak. Meanwhile, Dell stock has soared 21.9% over the past three months, significantly outperforming the S&P 500 Index’s ($SPX) 5.5% gains during the same time frame.
Over the longer term, Dell stock has gained 4.5% on a YTD basis and plunged 14.2% over the past 52 weeks, outpacing SPX’s 3.6% gains in 2025, but significantly underperforming SPX’s 11.4% surge over the past year.
To confirm the recent upturn, Dell stock has traded consistently above its 50-day moving average since the start of May and mostly above its 200-day moving average since mid-May, with some fluctuations.
Dell Technologies’ stock prices dropped 2.1% in the trading session after the release of its mixed Q1 results on May 29. The company’s net revenues for the quarter increased 5.1% year-over-year to $23.4 billion, surpassing the consensus estimates by 1%. Meanwhile, the company’s adjusted EPS for the quarter grew by 17.4% year-over-year to $1.55, but missed the consensus estimates by a notable margin.
However, Dell registered a significant growth in cash flows; its adjusted free cash flows for the quarter grew from $623 million in the year-ago quarter to $2.2 billion.
On a more positive note, the stock has notably outperformed its peer HP Inc.’s (HPQ) 24.8% drop on a YTD basis and 32.4% decline over the past 52 weeks.
Among the 19 analysts covering the Dell stock, the consensus rating is a “Strong Buy.” Its mean price target of $137.05 suggests a 13.8% upside potential from current price levels.
