The latest earnings release comes after a strong run, with a 90 day share price return of 14.16% and a one year total shareholder return of 131.56%. This suggests momentum has been building despite a recent pullback to US$260.9 and a 7 day share price return of 3.36%.

With MYR Group now trading around US$260.90 after very strong reported earnings and a 1 year total return above 130%, the key question is whether there is still a buying opportunity here or if the market is already pricing in future growth.
