Compare to who? Which other company even compares, in size?

TIA.

"Compare to who"

As I said:

That YTD upward trend is not meaningful if it just mirrors the S&P 500. Pick Compare and do that.

If the stock of the largest funeral parlor/undertaker company went up, it is only meaningful if that rise was significantly more than the broad stock market, i.e. the S&P 500 index.

"A rising tide floats all boats."

Conversely if the stock was trending down for the year, but the broad market was also, they could be doing great if the broad market went down 25% but they only went down 5%.
