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 →
Restaurants 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.
Primary pillar under pressure — Operating income growth via cost management: Operating margin guided to 14.0% vs target of consistent growth; Q2 EPS missed by 2.6%.
View ThesisRevenue growth is slowing — up about 10% over the past year and decelerating.
View GrowthMiddle-of-the-pack quality for its industry.
View QualityManagement screens strong on capital allocation, margins, market reaction to earnings.
View ManagementExpectations look high — the market is pricing in about 26% growth a year, above the roughly 11% analysts expect, leaving little room for error.
View ValuationModerate volatility — typically moves about 1% a day.
View RiskTexas Roadhouse's growth depends on maintaining strong sales and traffic. The company recently reported Q2 earnings with revenue of $1.74 billion and EPS of $1.85. It beat expectations, showing strong momentum. The stock trades at 30× P/E, above the 17× peer median. This suggests the market expects more growth than the company may deliver. The primary risk is a potential guidance cut, with a 27% miss probability. Peer multiples imply a price about 26% below where it trades. This read is provisional.
