How has Coking Coal moved against S&P 500?
The line below covers up to 5.2 years and opens on the 5Y view; the buttons cut it shorter. Over the most recent two of them this industry is 43% behind S&P 500. Earnings across its companies fell 98% on average over the last four reported quarters.

Both lines start at 200 in the same week, so the distance between them is the whole story: the industry line is an equal-weighted index of its 5 companies. The bars underneath are trailing 12-month earnings per share, one bar per reported quarter, each member rebased to 100 at the start and the industry taking the median — so a price line pulling away from flat bars is a re-rating, not earnings. A bar turns red when that figure is lower than the quarter before. Rules are fixed and applied identically everywhere on this site: ahead by 5% or more over three months, or behind by 20% or more over a year while earnings grew 20% or more. Hover any point to read both values and the gap. This is a description of what the numbers did, not advice.
02 · sector relative strength, before individual stocks
Is Coking Coal outperforming S&P 500?
Coking Coal has underperformed S&P 500 by 9.1% over the last 52 weeks. Over 13 weeks the gap is a shortfall of 15.7%. 1 of 5 covered companies currently beats the S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength, so leadership inside the sector is selective. SunCoke Energy, Inc. is the strongest against the sector itself at +32.8%.

The central tension: the companies with the most scale are not necessarily the companies creating the most change.
Start with scale. Then earnings trajectory. Then business quality. Only after those three agree should price leadership carry much weight.
Bottom line
Coking Coal has underperformed S&P 500 by 9.1% over 52 weeks and 15.7% over 13 weeks. 1 of 5 covered companies beat the S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength, while 2 of 5 beat the sector itself. Alpha Metallurgical Resources, Inc. leads with revenue of $2,122 million, based on 4 of 5 comparable companies through Mar 2026.

4-Factor Sector Score
An additive sector-relative research score. The four displayed point contributions always equal the total: Growth & earnings (35), Capital efficiency (25), Valuation (20), and Relative strength (20). Missing or stale evidence is absorbed inside the affected factor, never applied as a hidden adjustment.
Growth & earnings · 35%Capital efficiency · 25%Valuation · 20%Relative strength · 20%
Warrior Met Coal, Inc. has the strongest current balance of earnings trajectory, business quality, valuation and price confirmation, with 73.6% evidence confidence.
SunCoke Energy, Inc. has stronger price confirmation than earnings confirmation; that is a research prompt, not permission to chase.
How this score is built, and what the marks mean
Missing observations are not scored as bad. Their missing weight lowers confidence and pulls the final score toward neutral. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led S&P 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step curve the sector itself is placed on — basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep — read from how many weeks running it has led S&P 500 and whether that lead is widening or shrinking. It describes where the PRICE stands, not the earnings trajectory and not a recommendation, and it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read.

04 · what price has already done
Market action
Warrior Met Coal, Inc. has the strongest one-year price move in Coking Coal at +34.2%. SunCoke Energy, Inc. leads on Mansfield relative strength against the S&P 500 at +5.4%. 1 of 5 covered companies is above zero on that measure. Every line covers 314 weekly closes through 2026-08-04.
Price and relative strength
Every company, the sector's own index and S&P 500 all start level on the left edge of the window, so only the distance between the lines counts — the highest line has risen the most since then, and the chart at the top of this page is drawn the same way. It opens on one year; the buttons beside it stretch that to three or five.
How far ahead of or behind S&P 500 each company has been running, measured against its own recent average of that comparison, so the flat line at zero IS S&P 500: above it the company is beating the market, below it the market is beating the company. It opens on one year.
The same measure taken against Coking Coal itself instead of the whole market, so the flat line at zero is the sector: above it the company is beating its own peers, which is the sharper test of the two. It opens on one year.

Investor read: Alpha Metallurgical Resources, Inc. is the scale benchmark; Warrior Met Coal, Inc. is the acceleration watch. Promote the challenger only if growth persists and converts into margin and returns.
This conclusion weakens if: Alpha Metallurgical Resources, Inc.'s growth falls below Warrior Met Coal, Inc.'s for two consecutive comparable reports while operating margin also compresses.
Revenue is compared on a common reported-currency basis. Growth is year-on-year, so seasonality does not masquerade as progress.

Investor read: American Resources Corporation sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.
This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current roce change signal.
ROCE asks how much operating return the business earns on the capital employed. Direction matters, but a single exceptional year should not be mistaken for durability.

Valuation Against Growth & Quality
Warrior Met Coal, Inc. has the lowest PEG among the 5 Coking Coal companies compared here, at 1.17×. American Resources Corporation has the lowest P/E at 3.94×, so level and change sit with different companies. 1 of 5 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.
What the numbers say: Warrior Met Coal, Inc. has the lowest comparable PEG at 1.17×. Only 1 of 5 companies have earnings and growth steady enough for the ratio to mean anything, so no broad “cheapest stock” conclusion is defensible unless the current multiple, own-history position and growth durability agree.

Persistence0/8 recent comparable periods

Investor read: Treat valuation as permission to investigate, never as a standalone reason to buy.
This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current p/e signal.
PEG is shown only when earnings are positive and three-year EPS growth is between 5% and 60%. It is recomputed consistently as the trailing P/E divided by that growth rate — reported earnings, never an expected-earnings multiple. On Indian companies it is shown only where the two data feeds agreed. Where any of that fails the ratio is left out rather than printed: a P/E divided by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, is a number that looks precise and means nothing.

10 · before the conclusion, check the blind spots
What can make this comparison misleading?
This Coking Coal comparison names 6 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. 1 of the 5 companies reports on an older date than the sector's freshest reporters, so its rank is marked stale. 1 of the 5 ranked sections has fewer than three usable current readings. A high growth rate can still be a low-base artefact.
Keep these limits visible
- A high growth rate can be a low-base artefact. The page keeps level and change separate for that reason.
- A high ROCE can be temporary or flattered by a small capital base. Read it beside margin, cash conversion and reinvestment.
- The 4-Factor Sector Score ranks research priority, not portfolio action. Management quality, catalysts and risks need equally fresh evidence before capital is deployed.
- An “all companies” line chart preserves completeness, but rank changes should be checked against reporting dates before drawing a conclusion.
- 1 company has an older fundamental reporting date than the sector’s freshest reporters; its rank carries a stale marker.
- Thin comparisons: Valuation have fewer than three usable current readings.

How was this comparison built?
This comparison is built from the reported filings of 5 Coking Coal companies, normalized to a common $ scale and a shared quarter axis of up to 20 quarters each. Fundamentals run through Jun 2026 and market data through 2026-08-04. A second data feed fills gaps only after identity and scale reconciliation, and missing observations are never interpolated.

How much history does this Coking Coal comparison include?
The page compares up to 20 reported quarters per company for fundamentals, returns and valuation, ending Jun 2026. Missing observations remain blank rather than being estimated.
How is the 4-Factor Sector Score calculated?
The four visible contributions add directly: growth and earnings up to 35 points, capital efficiency up to 25, valuation up to 20, and relative strength up to 20. Missing or stale evidence moves only the affected contribution toward neutral.
Which Coking Coal company is the biggest?

Warrior Met Coal, Inc. has the highest operating margin at 17.3%, from 4 of 5 comparable companies. Warrior Met Coal, Inc. shows the biggest recent improvement, at +23.1 percentage points. A high margin matters most when it is holding or rising, not when it is peaking.

Which Coking Coal company earns the highest return on capital?
American Resources Corporation leads on return on capital employed at 4.2%, across 5 of 5 companies. Read it beside the length of its reported history: a high return that repeats for years is evidence of a durable business, while a single high reading can be a small capital base or one good year.
Which Coking Coal stock is the cheapest?
On PEG — where a LOWER number is cheaper — Warrior Met Coal, Inc. screens cheapest at 1.17×. Only 1 of 5 companies have earnings and growth steady enough for the ratio to mean anything, so this is not a sector-wide "cheapest stock" verdict. Cheap on a multiple is a reason to investigate, never a reason to buy on its own.
Is the Coking Coal sector beating the market?
Coking Coal has underperformed S&P 500 by 9.1% over the last 52 weeks and 15.7% over 13 weeks, measured on an equal-weight index of its current members. Inside the sector, 1 of 5 covered companies are beating the market on their own. Sector strength does not transfer evenly to every stock in it.
Which Coking Coal stock has the strongest price momentum?
SunCoke Energy, Inc. has the strongest relative strength against S&P 500. Relative strength answers last, after growth, quality and valuation: price can move well before the fundamentals confirm it, and sometimes without them confirming at all.
Which Coking Coal company scores highest for research priority?
Warrior Met Coal, Inc. scores 68.3 out of 100 with 73.6% evidence confidence, from 25.6 points on growth and earnings, 15.3 on capital efficiency, 12.7 on valuation and 14.7 on relative strength. This ranks what deserves work next. It is not a buy recommendation, and management quality, catalysts and risk still need separate research.
How many Coking Coal companies does this comparison cover, and over what period?
It compares 5 listed companies over up to 20 reported quarters of fundamentals, ending Jun 2026, plus weekly price and relative-strength history. Membership is the full sector list — nothing is dropped for having thin data.

The 5 Coking Coal companies on this page carry $8,320 million of combined market value. Warrior Met Coal, Inc. is the largest at $4,303 million, about 52% of the sector's total on its own. Market value moves with price, so this reading is dated 2026-08-04.
What is the Coking Coal sector's P/E ratio?
The median price-to-earnings ratio across the 5 Coking Coal companies on this page is 35.6×, measured on the 5 that report a comparable figure. A sector-level history for this multiple is not held here, so this is a cross-section of today, not a comparison with the sector’s own past. Figures are as of 2026-08-04.
How is the Coking Coal sector performing?
1 of the 5 covered Coking Coal companies are beating S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength. The sector itself is 9.1% behind S&P 500 over 52 weeks on an equal-weight index of its current members. Readings are as of 2026-08-04.

This comparison covers 5 listed Coking Coal companies in the US, each above the size floor the site applies. The full ranked list is on this page, with reported fundamentals through Jun 2026. Membership is the full industry list — nothing is dropped for having thin data.
Why are some values on this page blank?
A blank means that company did not report a comparable figure for that period, so nothing is shown. Missing observations are never interpolated, carried forward, or replaced with a similar-looking accounting line, and a company with missing evidence has its research score pulled toward neutral rather than being scored as bad.
Is this investment advice?
No. Every figure here is a deterministic calculation from reported company filings and market data, published for research. It contains no recommendation to buy or sell any security, does not account for your circumstances, and is not a substitute for advice from a licensed adviser.
