Pays a good 3.5% yield with a 10x PE, which are likely depressed by the global slowdown and the trade war, but the slowdown will turn. Buy this if you have a 3-5-year horizon. Governments need to start spending on infrastructure to get economies going. Also look at CMI-N.

He's watching it. On their conference call Q1 there was a major misunderstanding about the guidance they gave; no, they haven't hit their peak for the year. Rather they reached the high point on their margin percentage. The street reacted negatively and sold. It was astonishing. A fine company, but he's not sure this is the best company in this space and there's a lot of competition here.

A big name but has a lot of debt. Big US company. A perfect target for tariffs. Trades at reach valuations. He would be cautious.

Just bought it this month. The global economy is accelerating, and sales are doing well. There is a recovery in commodity prices and that is helping them. Trading at 14 times earnings with a 20% growth rate. (Analysts’ price target is $172.32)

(A Top Pick Feb 13’17, Down 64.73%) He thought it had down legs. Global growth was greater than expected. They restructured so much that their earnings grew. It is still a cyclical industry. He could see being short of this stock.

AAPL-Q vs. CAT-N. CAT-N is machinery and has been a hero. They both really pulled back. CAT-N had a 22% earnings beat last quarter. AAPL-Q is really the iPhone X or 10 story. They missed on units. It is not a lost leader but the concept applies. This will be used like the iPad with augmented reality. You are in a very expensive period of time – an air pocket. AAPL-Q is a great company, however.

(A Top Pick Nov 16/16. Down 52%.) *Short* At the time, this was trading at over 30 times earnings, with basically 3 years of down earnings. It was trading at a ridiculously high multiple. They missed on the past 5 quarters, and the stock had run up on the idea that Donald Trump was going to build the wall using thousands of Caterpillar tractors. He underestimated the global recovery, which helped sales. On top of that, they operationally improved their margins to such a degree that earnings recovery has grown through the estimates in the last three quarters. Has shorted again recently because, although a good story, it is trading at 25X what he thinks will be their peak earnings.

This was basically left for dead and everybody was very negative on it. It hit a low in late January 2016, and has rebounded nicely. It was a long, long decline for the better part of 2 years, and then finally started to turn around, and it is breaking out again. This is its first break-out in 6 years. This is probably a pretty positive thing for everybody in the world, because it means very, very hard-core resources and commodities are getting moved around.
