Economic Moat

Evidence of durable competitive advantage in the filed financials (10 years of history).

Wide moat signalsMoat evidence score: 73/100

The filed history looks like a business competitors struggle to attack: high and steady margins, revenue that grows through cycles, and strong returns on capital.

Gross margin level48/100

39.3% average over the last 3 years

Gross margin stability52/100

±3.8 pts around 36.4% across 10 years

Revenue durability100/100

grew in 9 of the last 9 year-over-year periods

Free-cash-flow consistency100/100

positive in 8 of 8 years

A moat can't be proven by numbers alone — this scores the evidence a durable advantage leaves behind (pricing power, consistency, returns on capital), computed the same way for every stock. Pair it with the business overview before concluding anything.

Technical Analysis (Educational)
Research

Technical analysis reads price and volume to judge momentum and timing. It complements the fundamentals above — it does not replace them. Here is what DPZ's chart says today, with each tool explained.

Trend — moving averages. A moving average is the average closing price over a window, which smooths out daily noise. DPZ trades near $352.95, around its 50-day average ($316.72) and 200-day average ($382.59). Price tangled in its moving averages means there is no clear trend — the stock is ranging.

Momentum — RSI. The Relative Strength Index runs 0–100 and measures how strong recent gains are versus losses. Above 70 is "overbought", below 30 "oversold". At 50 it is in neutral territory — neither stretched nor washed out.

MACD. MACD compares two moving averages to flag shifts in momentum. Its histogram is currently positive — short-term momentum is improving.

Volatility — ATR. Average True Range is the typical daily move. DPZ's is $10.61 (~3.0% of price), so swings of about that size each day are normal — handy for setting a stop that isn't too tight.

Support & resistance. Over the last month DPZ found buyers near $282.00 (support) and sellers near $326.85 (resistance); its 52-week range is $282.00–$496.00. A decisive break beyond either edge often marks the next move.

Volume. The latest session traded 0.8× the 20-day average — about normal. Rising volume on up-days suggests real buying; on down-days, real selling.
