Cyclical Stock
Categories: Investing, Stocks, Company Valuation
Stocks that move with economic cycles. These tend to be stocks in companies that can be affected by the economy at large. In many cases, they're from companies that make or sell discretionary items.
Example
If your company sells cheap-o vacation plans and the economy tanks, fewer people are going on vacation—because they're working overtime. As a result of that, your stock prices might drop.
