It's not just an AI story, it's also power generation, mining, and infrastructure. It's a multi-year play. Shares are up 65% this year. It's price to perfection now and would buy it only on weakness.
He bought; is very bullish. All the infrastructure play flows through CAT. If the stock splits, it will go much higher. Is up 142% this year, and 70% of this move is from AI. A short position in this in outlandish; a stock like this doesn't usually grow to the sky.
Hasn't owned, as it's always been too cyclical. Safer way to play mining. Ran so fast, so quickly. PE multiple north of 30x, so a lot of positive things are already baked in. FCF yield is very small. Growth profile quite robust, but if that were to get hit then valuation would come off.
