TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

This global manufacturer of lift equipment offers diversification across several geographical regions as the economy stabilizes.  It trades at 15x earnings, 1.5x book and supports a ROE of 21%.  Recently reported earnings showed a strong backlog of orders and management is confident they can adjust strategies to deal with the fully-discounted tariff uncertainty.  This is backed by cash reserves continuing to grow, while debt is retired and shares bought back.  We recommend setting a stop-loss at $34, looking to achieve $56 -- upside potential of 28%.  Yield 3.2%

(Analysts’ price target is $56.00)

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

HY manufactures robotic forklifts, trucks and other automated material handling products for sale globally.  The company has made significant investment into AI enhancements and the company possesses a backlog of $2.3 billion in orders.  We like that cash reserves are holding steady as the company aggressively retires debt and buys back shares.  It trades at 10x earnings, 1.8x book and supports a ROE of 37%.  We recommend setting a stop-loss at $40, looking to achieve $72 -- upside potential over 30%.  Yield 2.5%
