The read, from its own figures
What its numbers say
- J closes above its 50-day average ($144.14), and the 50-day sits above the 200-day ($134.22): on both averages the chart reads as an uptrend.
- At $148.90, J is 8.1% below its 1-year high of $162.00, set on November 4, 2026, and 40.9% above its 1-year low of $105.68 (May 13, 2026).
- Over the past month J rose 7.4%, from $138.59 to $148.90.
- J trades at 49.5x its last twelve months of earnings and 18.1x the next twelve months' estimate, so analysts expect earnings 173.7% higher.
- Its P/E is in line with the 49.0x of PWR, the other engineering & construction company we track.
- J's 30-day volatility, 35.1% a year, works out to a typical daily move of about 2.2%.
- Yahoo Finance puts its beta at 0.67: over five years of monthly returns, J moved about 0.67% for each 1% move of the S&P 500.
What would change the read
- A close under the 50-day average, $144.14 (−3.2% from the last close), would turn the read to a pullback; under the 200-day, $134.22 (−9.9%), the longer rise is in question.
- A close above $162.00 (+8.8%) would be a new 1-year high; below $105.68 (−29.0%), a new 1-year low.
How it is computed
- Prices are Yahoo Finance's daily candles for J, the same ones the chart below draws; the P/E, forward P/E and beta are Yahoo Finance quote fields.
- The averages are simple means of the last 50 and 200 closes; the 1-year high and low are the highest high and lowest low of the last 252 sessions; the 30-day volatility is the standard deviation of the past month's daily returns, annualized with the square root of 252.
- Peers are the other companies Yahoo Finance files under engineering & construction among the assets we track, not a full industry screen; the median counts those with a positive P/E.
- Every sentence here is written by code from those figures, refreshed daily; nobody edits it for J by hand. It describes what the price and the multiples have done, not what they will do, and it is not advice.
