  • From $152.43, the CBA share price would need to rise around 18% to reach $180.
  • The CommBank app has become a part of how many customers manage their finances, helping CBA build deeper relationships across multiple products.
  • CBA has looked cheap in recent years, and a share price of $180 would once again put it on a high valuation.
  • At $180, that would put CBA shares on a price-to-earnings ratio of about 27 times FY27 earnings and 26 times FY28 earnings.
  • For me, $180 does not look like a stretch for CBA.

Commonwealth Bank of Australia shares are trading around $152.43 on Monday.

From $152.43, the CBA share price would need to rise around 18% to reach $180.

After all, CBA shares have already traded above $180 during the past year.

The CommBank app has become a part of how many customers manage their finances, helping CBA build deeper relationships across multiple products.

The bank's size is another advantage.

If CBA continues performing well, investors could become more positive on the shares again and push them back towards their previous highs.

CBA has looked cheap in recent years, and a share price of $180 would once again put it on a high valuation.

Consensus forecasts suggest earnings per share of $6.67 in FY27 and $6.86 in FY28.

At $180, that would put CBA shares on a price-to-earnings ratio of about 27 times FY27 earnings and 26 times FY28 earnings.

At today's share price, the FY27 forecast represents a dividend yield of around 3.4%, before including any benefit from franking credits.

For me, $180 does not look like a stretch for CBA.
