How Is Rollins’ Stock Performance Compared to Other Cyclical Stocks?

Atlanta, Georgia-based Rollins, Inc. (ROL) provides pest and wildlife control services to residential and commercial customers in the United States and internationally. With a market cap of $29.3 billion, Rollins offers pest control services to residential properties, protecting them from common pests, including rodents, insects, and wildlife.

Companies worth $10 billion or more are generally described as "large-cap stocks." Rollins fits right into that category, with its market cap exceeding this threshold, reflecting its substantial size, influence, and dominance in the pest and wildlife control services space.

 

Rollins touched its all-time high of $61.84 on Nov. 28 and is currently trading 6.2% below that peak. Meanwhile, ROL stock prices have inched up 1.2% over the past three months, outpacing the Consumer Discretionary Select Sector SPDR Fund’s (XLYmarginal 11 bps uptick during the same time frame.
