PM Elliott Wave analysis: Buyers target $200 from support zone

Philip Morris International Inc. (PM) is currently trading around a key support zone where buyers could have taken new position. Thus, traders could see this stock skyrocket to $200 and beyond in the coming days.

Philip Morris International Inc. (PM) is a leading global tobacco and nicotine company headquartered in Stamford, Connecticut. It manufactures and markets well-known cigarette brands, including Marlboro, and is actively transitioning toward smoke-free products through its “Beyond Nicotine” strategy. PMI’s flagship smoke-free product, IQOS, uses heat-not-burn technology and has gained significant global adoption. Operating in over 180 markets, the company focuses on reducing the health impact of smoking by investing heavily in science-based alternatives and next-generation nicotine delivery systems.

PM weekly chart- 29th October 2025

PM

From the all-time low of $32 in March 2009, PM’s stock price has surged over 475%, peaking at $186 in June. Since then, it has completed a 3-swing structure. While we anticipate at least a 5-swing chart evolution, the 3rd swing appears incomplete. We’ve identified the first swing, ending at the June 2017 peak, as wave (I). A pullback followed, correcting it in wave (II), which ended at the March 2020 low. From there, wave (III) began. Wave (III) could target $204, 1.618 of (I) from (II), and potentially even higher.

Meanwhile, waves I and II of (III) started and ended at the February 2022 high and September 2022 low, respectively. From September 2022, a strong wave III of (III) emerged, completing at the June 2025 peak, the current all-time high. The pullback from this peak is evolving as wave IV. The long-term chart indicates a strong, bullish sequence. We favor buying at the extremes of 3, 7, or 11-swing pullbacks, which we typically mark with a blue box on our charts.

PM Elliott Wave trade setup (daily chart)- 29th October 2025

The daily chart above captures the final sub-waves of wave III and the sub-waves of wave IV. The chart shows wave IV completed a 7-swing pullback within the 144.10-124.79 blue box buying zone. From this zone, traders and investors can anticipate at least a 3-swing bounce. This bounce is sufficient to allow traders to move their Long position from the blue box to a risk-free position. Ideally, we expect a 5-wave surge for wave V to reach $200 or higher. Once wave V peaks, wave (III) will finish, initiating a pullback for (IV), creating another buying opportunity. Given this bullish trend, we prefer to avoid selling; instead, we wait for dips and buy from the blue box.
