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 →

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 ValuationThis stock is volatile — it swings about 1% on a typical day and fell roughly 53% in its worst 12-month stretch.
View RiskAptiv's $20 billion bookings target must keep compounding to justify the price. Revenue grew 2% year over year in the latest quarter. The company beat its earnings estimate by 6.8% in that period. APTV trades at 6.5 times earnings versus an 11.7 times peer median. The price reflects less growth than our forecast suggests. Recent financial performance dropped to the bottom half of its industry. This shift marks the thesis as broken. Peer multiples imply a price about 21% above where it trades.
Trailing returns as of 2026-11-05. APTV is total return (includes dividends); the S&P 500 benchmark is price return (the index excludes dividends).
