Its floor is the earnings power floor, modeled from its filings: $63.00 a share.
CVNA position size FAQ
How much CVNA stock should I own?
That depends on the price you would pay and the loss you can accept. Enter your price above: the maximum follows from the $63.00 floor and your loss limit. It is a ceiling on size, not a recommendation to buy.
What is Carvana Co.'s downside floor?
$63.00 a share: the earnings power floor, modeled from CVNA's filings and recomputed 2026-10-23. Banks and insurers are held to book value; every other business to its earnings through a full cycle. A floor is a model, not a bound: the price can trade through it.
Why is CVNA capped at 6.8%?
Its quality composite is 0.383 on a 0–1 scale, built from five ratios in its annual reports and graded against all companies, not just its sector. That composite keeps 56.8% of the 12.0% ceiling: 12.0% × 56.8% = 6.8%.
Does this tell me whether CVNA is a buy?
No. It does not value the business. It sizes a position so one mistake cannot dominate your portfolio.
