Dividend coverage (FY2025)

Covered by reported results. In FY2025, MAR's dividend was covered by reported results (earnings payout 28%, free-cash-flow payout 28%). This describes past coverage, not a forecast.

  • Earnings payout28% dividends / net income
  • Free-cash-flow payout28% dividends / (operating cash flow − capex)

Coverage derived from reported SEC EDGAR XBRL figures for FY2025 (dividends paid vs. net income and free cash flow, same fiscal year). This describes PAST coverage for one fiscal year — it does not predict whether a dividend will be maintained, raised, or cut, and a one-year payout ratio can be distorted by non-recurring items. Informational only — not financial advice.

How Marriott International looks technically

Marriott International (MAR) is trading 3.3% above its 200-day average, the long-term trend line — a longer-term uptrend. Its 50-day average crossed above its 200-day average about 311 trading days ago — a "golden cross", a bullish long-term signal. A trend is forming but not yet strong — ADX, a 0–100 trend-strength gauge, is 21 (a reading of 25+ marks a strong trend). Momentum is neutral — its 14-day RSI (a 0–100 momentum gauge) is 59, neither overbought (above 70) nor oversold (below 30). It made a new 20-day high about 8 trading days ago.

Position in its 14-day rangeit is trading near the top of its 14-day range ($337.02 to $364.09) — its "stochastic" reading is 89 out of 100, where 0 would mean closing exactly at the 14-session low and 100 exactly at the high. This measures WHERE the price sits inside its recent range, which is a different question from the RSI beside it: RSI is a momentum gauge, measuring how FAST the price has been moving, so a stock can drift quietly to the bottom of its range with an ordinary RSI, or fall sharply and still sit in the middle. It has been climbing within that range over the last few sessions.88.9

A level is a price this company reversed or paused at more than once — they describe past behaviour, not a forecast of where the price will go.

Wave structure

Its recent swings can be read as a five-part downward sequence — what Elliott-wave chartists call an impulse — now in leg 3 of five.

This labelling fails — stops being a possible reading at all — if it closes above $364.09.

This is one of several labellings that fit the same swings, so treat it as a reading rather than the reading. It was chosen from 2 labellings that survived the rules, counting shorter readings of the same bars.

On past moves of this shape the leg has usually ended somewhere between $292.58 and $319.89 — that is where it has tended to end if the count holds, not a forecast of where the price goes.

Alternate reading: The same swings also read as a three-part correction in leg C, which fails on a close above $364.09.

This reading has stood for 3 trading days, since 2026-10-06.

MAR had 2.69% of its shares outstanding sold short as of the 2026-09-15 FINRA settlement date (percent of FLOAT would be higher — float is not disclosed in the source). FINRA reported 4.39 days to cover at the same settlement.

Reported to FINRA as of the 2026-09-15 settlement date. Short interest is reported to FINRA and published on a delayed, bi-monthly schedule (as of a settlement date, disseminated roughly eight business days later) — it is NOT real-time, does not cover every venue or all US trading, and is not a short-squeeze prediction or investment advice. Days-to-cover is the value FINRA reports; percent of float is not shown because the source file carries no share-count denominator — where a percent appears it is of shares OUTSTANDING, the larger base, and is therefore a floor on percent of float.
