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 →
Construction & Engineering 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.

View RiskGranite Construction's growth depends on its ability to raise fiscal year 2026 revenue guidance. Recent earnings showed a revenue growth of 29% year over year, but the last quarter missed expectations. It trades at 18 times P/E, while the peer median is 45 times. This suggests the price reflects less growth than expected. The primary risk is a potential guidance cut, with a 16% chance of missing next quarter. Peer multiples imply a price about 29% above where it trades. This read is provisional.
