Is Tractor Supply Stock Underperforming the S&P 500?

With a market cap of $32.1 billion, Tractor Supply Company (TSCO) is the largest rural lifestyle retailer in the United States. The company serves recreational farmers, ranchers, pet owners, tradesmen, and rural communities with a wide range of products, including livestock and equine feed, companion animal care, hardware, tools, seasonal goods, and workwear. 

Companies valued at more than $10 billion are generally considered “large-cap” stocks, and Tractor Supply fits this criterion perfectly. Operating under the Tractor Supply, Petsense by Tractor Supply, and Orscheln Farm and Home brands, it also offers exclusive private-label products across its stores and online platforms.
