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 ValuationModerate volatility — typically moves about 1% a day.
View RiskPRI's growth depends on increasing earnings per share to at least $6.33 in FY 2025. Recent earnings showed a beat with EPS at 6.41, indicating strong performance. It trades at 3.7× price-to-book, above the 1.3× peer median, suggesting the price reflects less growth than forecast. The primary risk is the shrinking sales force, which may hinder growth in investment products. Peer multiples imply a price about 4% below where it trades. The thesis has broken due to the failure to meet the EPS target.
