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 →
Building Products is in recovery. 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.
Recent financial performance freshly dropped to the bottom half of its industry.

View ManagementExpectations look reasonable — what the market is pricing in sits in line with or below what analysts forecast.
View ValuationModerate volatility — typically moves about 1% a day.
View RiskCarrier’s commercial HVAC and data center growth must sustain rising sales despite weak recent financial performance. Revenue growth accelerated from 2% to 12% year over year, and Q3 earnings beat estimates. CARR trades at 22× P/E versus a 19× peer median; expectations look modest versus our view. Margin pressure from input costs and lower price realization threatens that growth’s profitability. The model puts the next-quarter miss probability at 26%. Peer multiples imply a price roughly in line with where it trades (about fair); the thesis has broken. This read is provisional.
Trailing returns as of 2026-10-30. CARR is total return (includes dividends); the S&P 500 benchmark is price return (the index excludes dividends).
