Charles River Laboratories (CRL) – Super Equities Snapshot

Date: August 28, 2025
Ticker: CRL


Summary Outlook: Our Super Equities models identify CRL as a high-potential opportunity, with the most likely upcoming bottom coming up between January–March 2026, aligning with the projected broad market bottom.


Timing & Price

  • Bottom Window:

    • Most probable: Jan–Mar 2026. We have a powerful cycle cluster arriving in January/February and a cycle composite bottoming in March. 

    • Prior clusters in Sept 2025, but dominant cycles point further out

  • Price Target:

    • Target entry:  Most likely bottom completion point is located at $70 (+/- $5) 


Upside Potential

If the 2026 bottom is confirmed, CRL could rally to $600–$800/share over the next cycle—a potential 8–10x move from the optimal entry range. The next major cycle high arrives in mid 2027. 


Action Plan

  • Wait for confirmation of a final bottom, ideally in early 2026

  • No buy triggers at current levels; avoid chasing the rebound


In summary:   We expect CRL to bottom in early 2026 at $70 (+/- $5). Once the bottom is in we expect the stock to increase as much as 6-8X by mid 2027. Begin targeting analysis as soon as the stock breaks below recent prior low of $90.
