Is Grab Holdings (GRAB) Undervalued As Analysts Lift Earnings Estimates?

After normalizing the financials, I ran Grab through the same valuation discipline I use across my portfolio, a framework I have come to call the Rotation Engine. The idea is deliberately simple: finding a stock below fair value is not enough. The discount has to be large enough, and the evidence behind that fair value reliable enough, to justify putting actual capital at risk.
