AltIndex does not publish a multi-year model — alternative data is most predictive over the next 6–12 months. Extending the current trajectory as a simple linear extrapolation projects CMG toward $24.89 by 2030, but long-range estimates carry far more uncertainty and should be treated as directional only. The more reliable signal is whether Chipotle’s AI Score and the drivers above keep improving over time.
