HOLD
Manufactures large trucks. The trucking industry is doing very well. This one had a great growth spurt over the last couple of years and their revenue growth has levelled off. If the trucking industry continues to do well, you will see some upgrades to the earnings estimates. Right now, the stock is not performing that well.
TOP PICK
Truck industry is doing very well right now. Very low valued stock. Performing very well against difficult markets.
SHORT
Fair market value is $73. Its at a 23 year high.
TOP PICK
Was rallying even against a very difficult market. Earnings have been very strong. 50% of truck sales are outside of US, so weaker US dollar means trucks are very competitively priced.
