the backlog orders shrink and dealer inventories grow causing shares to fall but the guidance is higher than this quarter. shares fall on demand concerns.

I think the main concern is right to repair legislation.  Servicing equipment is good for earnings.   That said they need to up their dividends and put the rest into RD.  The first company that makes useful automated heavy equipment will dominate for a decade.

This stock is a bellwether for the entire economy because of their involvement in construction, mining, OG, transportation, etc. AI isn't developed here as far as I know. right to repair is a monopoly it seems.

BossGalapagos MilkMelons  I don't know anything about the industry or the company.  But at this multiple it looks like a bargain. Clearly they are being conservative with their dividends.
