WESCO International, Inc. is consolidating: price is in the upper part of its 52-week range without a decisive push either way. The stock is liquid enough that positioning changes get absorbed without distorting the trend.
Reverse DCF
What growth is priced into WCC?
At today's price, WESCO International, Inc. needs to grow free cash flow about 122.4% a year for the next 10 years to justify its valuation at a 9.04% cost of capital. Over its actual history it has compounded free cash flow at -2.7% a year, so the market is asking for 125.1 percentage points above its own delivered rate. On that basis WCC looks priced above what its own growth record supports.

WESCO International, Inc. is currently running 47.3% annualised volatility over the last 21 sessions. Measured against WCC's own 13 years of daily returns rather than a market-wide average, that is the 83rd percentile — elevated for this stock, against a typical reading of 32.2%. The distinction matters because a number that looks calm for one stock is turbulent for another, and the absolute figure on its own tells you neither.
WCC is trading -11.8% below its running peak. Across 12 full years on file, its median worst-drawdown-in-a-year was -31.5%, and the deepest was -73.7% in 2020. The current pullback is therefore shallower than what this stock gives back in a typical year, which is context worth having before treating it as a dislocation.
Price sits +5.9% from its 200-day moving average. Against every other day in its history, that gap ranks at the 56th percentile — a somewhat wider gap than its own norm. Over the past year WCC closed higher on 53% of sessions, and it is currently 2 sessions into a falling streak.
On September specifically: over 14 years of records, WCC finished the month higher 4 of 14 times, with a median return of -1.2% and an average of -1.7%. Its strongest month historically has been November at +7.1% on average, its weakest March at -2.0%. Seasonality is a weak signal on its own — a decade is a small sample and regimes change — but it is a real distribution rather than a rule of thumb.
Overnight risk is measurable too: WCC has opened more than 2% away from the prior close in 283 of 3,268 sessions (8.7% of the time), with the largest gaps running +14.8% and -16.4%. For anyone holding through an event, that rate is a better guide to overnight exposure than the intraday range.
Across the last 3 dated reports on file, WCC moved an average of 2.4% in the session after earnings, closing higher 2 of those 3 times, with a median move of +0.9% and a largest of +6.0%.
All figures computed from 3,269 daily closes between 2013-09-16 and 2026-09-15, split-adjusted, recomputed daily. Percentiles are against WCC's own 13-year history, not a peer group or index.
