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 →
Real Estate is in steady. 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.
Management is running behind on a stated commitment.

View GrowthMiddle-of-the-pack management execution.
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 RiskRLJ’s case rests on steady lodging performance, backed by cash earnings, despite revenue growth of 6.8% year over year. The latest listed quarter was Q2 FY2026; no latest release is recorded, so the recent beat lacks context. RLJ trades at 9× P/FFO versus a 12× peer median, and expectations look modest versus our view. Our model puts the next-quarter miss probability at 24%. Management running behind on a stated commitment is the specific thesis risk. Peer multiples imply a price about 13% above where it trades. The thesis is on watch, and this read is provisional.
Trailing returns as of 2026-10-30. RLJ is total return (includes dividends); the S&P 500 benchmark is price return (the index excludes dividends).

Today's peer multiple on trailing earnings, with no growth credited. This is the headline read.
Adds projected growth, so it leans optimistic by design. Read it as upside context, not a base case.
