Daily closes. Earnings/event dots are placed inline.
Industries move in repeating boom-and-bust cycles. This shows where this stock’s industry sits in that cycle, stage by stage (recovery → expansion → supercycle → steady → deceleration → contraction), from its fundamentals (orders, revenue, capital spending), not the stock’s price.
A booming industry is a tailwind for the names in it; a contracting one is a headwind. Companies in the same industry tend to rise and fall together with the cycle, the way a tide lifts and lowers every boat in the harbor at once, so a large part of a stock’s swing can come from where its industry sits rather than from the company itself. It’s context for reading the company’s results, not a buy/sell call. Full explanation →
Aerospace & Defense is in expansion. Describes the industry's cycle state, not a call on this stock.
The stage band shows the industry’s cycle over the chart’s timeline (each color a stage); a ▼ marks a quarter its growth inflected down — amber is an unconfirmed watch, red is confirmed the next quarter. Use “Overlay cycle on chart” to tint the price chart by stage. The industry’s fundamentals, not a signal on this stock.
The reason to own it still holds.

View ManagementThis stock is volatile — it swings about 3% on a typical day and fell roughly 63% in its worst 12-month stretch.
View RiskBETA’s eVTOL growth story depends on rapid revenue expansion, though profitability remains absent. Revenue grew 146% year over year, but Q2 FY2026 missed earnings expectations. Valuation multiples and priced-in expectations are unavailable, so the price’s growth assumptions cannot be defined from this desk. The latest earnings miss and a 33% next-quarter miss probability threaten the thesis. Recent performance is weak, and sector trends are a drag. The thesis remains intact, though BETA is down 23% from its recent high. This read is provisional.
Trailing returns as of 2026-10-16. BETA is total return (includes dividends); the S&P 500 benchmark is price return (the index excludes dividends).

A consensus fair price across 0 valuation methods, at three horizons. As of 2026-10-15. Estimates are diagnostics, not price targets. Short-horizon estimates are close to coin-flips, so confidence is a method-agreement read, not a prediction.
Today's peer multiple on trailing earnings, with no growth credited. This is the headline read.
