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 →
Financials 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.

View ValuationThis stock is highly volatile — it swings about 2% on a typical day and fell roughly 65% in its worst 12-month stretch.
View RiskFiserv's growth trajectory relies on its ability to achieve organic revenue growth of 1% to 3% for 2026. Recent earnings showed a decline in revenue, with Q2 revenues of $4.96 billion down 4.5% year on year, missing analyst expectations by 1.7%. The stock trades at 6.9× P/E versus a peer median of 12.4×, indicating that the price reflects less growth than forecasted. The primary risk is the potential for further guidance cuts, which could lead to a miss probability of 21%. Peer multiples imply a price about 21% above where it trades. Our read remains provisional.
