This apart, cyclical demand of the company’s services and currency fluctuations are likely to thwart growth, going forward. Also, strengthening of the U.S. dollar adds to the company’s concerns. AECOM’s shares have declined 12.3% year to date. Earnings estimates have remained stable over the past 60 days for 2018 and 2019, limiting the upside potential for the stock." (7/16/2018)
