Basic Materials · Construction Materials · Data as of 2026-09-01
Bottom line
VMC is trading near its usual valuation, near its historical support zone, and recent volume suggests money flowing out. The picture is mixed, so it may be worth watching rather than acting on. Past patterns are not a guarantee of future results.
Valuation — Near its usual asset-based value (Yellow)
VMC is in a cyclical industry, where earnings swing with the economy, so we compare its price-to-book of 4.2× with its own typical level (4.1×). Its current multiple sits around the 6th percentile of its own last five years — toward the low end of its own range.
Price zones — Near its historical support zone (Green)
At $259.69, the stock is close to the lower end of its recent range. Over the past year VMC has traded between $252.35 and $331.09; its historical support zone sits near $252.35 and resistance near $285.08. It is below both its 50- and 200-day averages, which has historically signalled a downtrend.
52-week range $252.35–$331.09 · 50-day average $285.08 · 200-day average $288.68
Money flow — Money is flowing out (Red)
Recent trading in VMC shows more volume on falling days than rising days, a pattern often described as distribution. Volume on up days has been about 0.9× volume on down days over the last 30 sessions.

一句话结论
VMC 估值接近其惯常水平，接近其历史支撑区，近期成交量显示资金正在流出。整体情况好坏参半，也许更适合先观察，而不是急于行动。过去的形态并不能保证未来的结果。
估值 — 接近其惯常的资产估值水平
VMC 所在的行业具有周期性，盈利会随经济起伏，因此我们把它 4.2× 的市净率与其自身惯常的水平（4.1×）作比较。它当前的估值倍数大约位于自身过去五年分布的第 6 百分位——处于自身区间的偏低位置。
价格区间 — 接近其历史支撑区
目前价格为 $259.69，接近其近期区间的下沿。过去一年 VMC 的价格在 $252.35 到 $331.09 之间波动；其历史支撑区在 $252.35 附近，阻力区在 $285.08 附近。它同时位于 50 日和 200 日均线下方，这在历史上通常对应下降趋势。
资金流向 — 资金正在流出
VMC 近期下跌日的成交量高于上涨日，这种形态常被称为派发。过去 30 个交易日，上涨日的成交量约为下跌日的 0.9×。
