As of Jun 18, 2026. Market Open.
The market lets you change horses halfway through the race, and more people should take advantage of that. A better company today than a year ago. CEO has been excellent. It has aerospace, power, and renewables. A lot of future growth is already built in to the price. He'd sell.
This has lagged the market and its industrial peers. They have gone through a lot of change, getting out of their financial services in order to grow their industrial segment. Have a new CEO and there will be a new CFO coming in. Earnings target for next year was set by the previous CEO, but that is probably not going to be made and the stock has been coming up. The dividend yield is over 4%. Even high quality industrial companies tend to have a yield of around 2.5%, so the company may reset the dividend.
