Only you can make the decision on the time to leap... but here's some supporting information and analysis.
Over the last 12 months, Portillo’s's shares have ranged in value from as little as $11.535 up to $23.99. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".

Valuing a stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge value. Check out the Portillo’s P/E ratio, PEG ratio and EBITDA
Portillo’s's current stock price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 37x. In other words, Portillo’s stocks trade at around 37x recent earnings.
That's relatively high compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the United States stock markets on average as of November 09, 2023 (20.44). The high P/E ratio could mean that investors are optimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're over-valued.
However, Portillo’s's P/E ratio is best considered in relation to those of others within the industry or those of similar companies.
Portillo’s's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $78.9 million.
The EBITDA is a measure of a Portillo’s's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.
To put that into context you can compare it against similar companies.
