Rough go recently. About 50% of production is domestic to the US. 35% of its business is recurring service revenue, encouraging. Questions around international business. If recession and tariffs are permanent, expect trouble.
If those clouds dissipate, this could be a good entry point. US administration has changed, but infrastructure renewal needs remain strong. What you could do is buy this, but barbell it with more defensive areas such as telcos, utilities, consumer staples.
The former CEO was good, but no longer running the company. However, shares are not expensive now, -18% this year. That said, it's not the time to buy this (could fall further).
He bought more CAT. It's a stealthy play in the data centre space where CAT does the heavy construction. This trades at only 17x PE, a 25% discount to John Deere, historically wide. Pays a 2% dividend and has lots of free cash flow.
Upgraded today. Is fairly valued. The quarter was good, but not exciting. Is a core position of his. The risk is if Russia and Ukraine end the war, this could lower commodity prices, but he doesn't expect this anytime soon.
