Partial Published before the outcome was known, scored automatically when the window closed on December 15, 2025.
Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached 40% of the predicted growth at its peak, without hitting the target.
The thesis — published September 16, 2025
Intuit looks ready to rebound as it heads into its 09-18 Investor Day. Buyer interest is picking up even though the short-term price has been soft, and overall mood is positive. Recent news helps: Mizuho kept a Buy with an $875 target, and Intuit added Clair On-Demand Pay to QuickBooks. If it shows clear ways to earn money from AI in QuickBooks and Mailchimp, growth could speed up over the next three months.
Primary drivers
- 09-18 Investor Day could spark fresh interest and clearer growth plans.
- More buyers than usual and a cooled price hint at a potential near-term lift.
- Mizuho restated Buy with an $875 goal on 09-14, adding confidence.
- New QuickBooks payroll option, Clair On-Demand Pay, may draw more users.
How it played out
INTU: target was not reached
Lyra published INTU at $647.74 on 2025-09-16. The thesis expected 22% growth toward $788.8 over the short-term window. It pointed to the 09-18 Investor Day, stronger buyer interest after a soft short-term price, Mizuho's Buy call with an $875 goal, Clair On-Demand Pay in QuickBooks, and clearer ways to earn from artificial intelligence in QuickBooks and Mailchimp.
Inside the window, INTU rose to $703.79 on 2025-09-22. That was an 8.7% peak gain, but it stayed below $788.8. It never got there. The stock ended at $654.6 on 2025-12-15. The thesis partially played out, but the published target missed.
