On May 17, 2026, Martin Marietta (MLM) traded in a narrow range ($556.56–$570.72) absent material new headlines. Recent flow: a $0.83 quarterly dividend declared May 14 (ex-date June 1), and director David Wajsgras received a 313-share equity grant on May 14. UBS lowered its target to $739 (from $755) on May 10 — outside the 48-hour window. This matters because shares remain rangebound after a strong Q1 (revenue +17% YoY to $1.36B).
