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 →
Biotechnology 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 ManagementThis stock is volatile — it swings about 3% on a typical day and fell roughly 78% in its worst 12-month stretch.
View RiskDARE aims to grow revenue through its new product, DARE to PLAY. The company launched FloraSync LF5 and reported a Q2 earnings beat. It trades at 29× price-to-sales, above the peer median of 11×. This premium reflects expectations for strong growth, which may not be met. The primary risk is a potential guidance cut, with a 33% miss probability. Peer multiples imply a price roughly in line with where it trades. The thesis has broken due to weakened revenue growth expectations.
Trailing returns as of 2026-09-04. DARE is total return (includes dividends); the S&P 500 benchmark is price return (the index excludes dividends).
