Farm & Heavy Construction Machinery Stocks
Farm & Heavy Construction Machinery: Caterpillar Inc. owns the largest revenue base; Aebi Schmidt Holding AG has the fastest current growth.
How has Farm & Heavy Construction Machinery moved against S&P 500?
The line below covers up to 5.2 years and opens on the 5Y view; the buttons cut it shorter. Over the most recent two of them this industry is 0% behind S&P 500. Earnings across its companies fell 22% on average over the last four reported quarters. It has been ahead of S&P 500 on a rolling three-month view for 7 weeks running.
RS ↑7w · 6/19 >200d (−7) · 6/19 lead (−5) · EPS 5/19↑
Both lines start at 200 in the same week, so the distance between them is the whole story: the industry line is an equal-weighted index of 19 of its 21 companies — the 2 with too short a price record are ranked in the scorecard but cannot sit in this line. The bars underneath are trailing 12-month earnings per share, one bar per reported quarter, each member rebased to 100 at the start and the industry taking the median — so a price line pulling away from flat bars is a re-rating, not earnings. A bar turns red when that figure is lower than the quarter before. Rules are fixed and applied identically everywhere on this site: ahead by 5% or more over three months, or behind by 20% or more over a year while earnings grew 20% or more. Hover any point to read both values and the gap. This is a description of what the numbers did, not advice.
Is Farm & Heavy Construction Machinery outperforming S&P 500?
Farm & Heavy Construction Machinery has underperformed S&P 500 by 4% over the last 52 weeks. Over 13 weeks the gap is a lead of 1.9%. 6 of 20 covered companies currently beat the S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength, so leadership inside the sector is selective. The Manitowoc Company, Inc. is the strongest against the sector itself at +46.3%.
Sector metric: — as of latest available · unclassified · direction unavailable.
The central tension: the companies with the most scale are not necessarily the companies creating the most change.
Start with scale. Then earnings trajectory. Then business quality. Only after those three agree should price leadership carry much weight.
Bottom line
Farm & Heavy Construction Machinery has underperformed S&P 500 by 4% over 52 weeks and 1.9% over 13 weeks. 6 of 20 covered companies beat the S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength, while 6 of 20 beat the sector itself. Caterpillar Inc. leads with revenue of $74,729 million, based on 13 of 21 comparable companies through Jun 2026.
4-Factor Sector Score
An additive sector-relative research score. The four displayed point contributions always equal the total: Growth & earnings (35), Capital efficiency (25), Valuation (20), and Relative strength (20). Missing or stale evidence is absorbed inside the affected factor, never applied as a hidden adjustment.
How this score is built, and what the marks mean
Missing observations are not scored as bad. Their missing weight lowers confidence and pulls the final score toward neutral. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led S&P 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step curve the sector itself is placed on — basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep — read from how many weeks running it has led S&P 500 and whether that lead is widening or shrinking. It describes where the PRICE stands, not the earnings trajectory and not a recommendation, and it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read.

Market action
The Manitowoc Company, Inc. has the strongest one-year price move in Farm & Heavy Construction Machinery at +109.2%. It also leads on Mansfield relative strength against the S&P 500 at +45.2%. 6 of 20 covered companies are above zero on that measure. Every line covers 314 weekly closes through 2026-09-16.
Every company, the sector's own index and S&P 500 all start level on the left edge of the window, so only the distance between the lines counts — the highest line has risen the most since then, and the chart at the top of this page is drawn the same way. It opens on one year; the buttons beside it stretch that to three or five.
How far ahead of or behind S&P 500 each company has been running, measured against its own recent average of that comparison, so the flat line at zero IS S&P 500: above it the company is beating the market, below it the market is beating the company. It opens on one year.
The same measure taken against Farm & Heavy Construction Machinery itself instead of the whole market, so the flat line at zero is the sector: above it the company is beating its own peers, which is the sharper test of the two. It opens on one year.
Revenue Scale & Growth Durability
Caterpillar Inc. has the highest Revenue among the 21 Farm & Heavy Construction Machinery companies compared here, at $74,729 million. Deere & Company is next at $47,926 million. Aebi Schmidt Holding AG has the highest Revenue growth at 61.2%, so level and change sit with different companies. 13 of 21 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026.
What the numbers say: Caterpillar Inc. is the scale leader at $74,729 million, 55.9% ahead of Deere & Company. Aebi Schmidt Holding AG's growth is 61.2% from a $1,733 million base, with 9 reported observations in the 20-quarter window. Treat the growth leader as an acceleration candidate, not as equally proven scale.
Investor read: Caterpillar Inc. is the scale benchmark; Aebi Schmidt Holding AG is the acceleration watch. Promote the challenger only if growth persists and converts into margin and returns.
This conclusion weakens if: Caterpillar Inc.'s growth falls below Aebi Schmidt Holding AG's for two consecutive comparable reports while operating margin also compresses.
On every company-comparison chart on this page: solid lines show level, dotted lines show change when “Both” is selected, and a missing report breaks the line rather than being invented.

Operating Economics & Margin Trend
Caterpillar Inc. has the highest OPM among the 21 Farm & Heavy Construction Machinery companies compared here, at 22.2%. Federal Signal Corporation is next at 15.9%. The same company also holds the highest Margin change, at +4.5 percentage points. 20 of 21 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026.
What the numbers say: Caterpillar Inc. leads both opm at 22.2% and margin change at +4.5 percentage points.
Investor read: Caterpillar Inc. sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.
This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current margin change signal.

Astec Industries, Inc. has the highest Profit growth at 73.3%, so level and change sit with different companies. 13 of 21 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026.
What the numbers say: Caterpillar Inc. leads with $10,844 million of TTM profit, 122.5% above Deere & Company. Astec Industries, Inc. shows 73.3% growth from a $26 million profit base. Compare the size of the base and persistence before ranking acceleration above profit scale.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current profit growth signal.

Return On Capital Employed
SunScout Holding Limited has the highest ROCE among the 21 Farm & Heavy Construction Machinery companies compared here, at 30.5%. Caterpillar Inc. is next at 22.2%. The same company also holds the highest ROCE change, at +14.6 percentage points. 21 of 21 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Sep 2026.
What the numbers say: SunScout Holding Limited leads ROCE at 30.5%, 8.3 percentage points above Caterpillar Inc.. SunScout Holding Limited has the strongest latest improvement at +14.6 percentage points. Read the leader beside the density of its reported history: a sparse high return is a candidate; a repeated high return is evidence of durability.
Investor read: SunScout Holding Limited sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.
This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current roce change signal.

Valuation Against Growth & Quality
The Manitowoc Company, Inc. has the lowest PEG among the 21 Farm & Heavy Construction Machinery companies compared here, at 0.14×. CNH Industrial N.V. is next at 0.46×. CEA Industries Inc. has the lowest P/E at 1.23×, so level and change sit with different companies. 10 of 21 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.
What the numbers say: The Manitowoc Company, Inc. has the lowest comparable PEG at 0.14×, 69.6% below CNH Industrial N.V.. Only 10 of 21 companies have earnings and growth steady enough for the ratio to mean anything, so no broad “cheapest stock” conclusion is defensible unless the current multiple, own-history position and growth durability agree.
Investor read: Treat valuation as permission to investigate, never as a standalone reason to buy.
This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current p/e signal.

What can make this comparison misleading?
This Farm & Heavy Construction Machinery comparison names 5 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. 8 of the 21 companies report on an older date than the sector's freshest reporters, so their ranks are marked stale. A high growth rate can still be a low-base artefact.
Keep these limits visible
- A high growth rate can be a low-base artefact. The page keeps level and change separate for that reason.
- A high ROCE can be temporary or flattered by a small capital base. Read it beside margin, cash conversion and reinvestment.
- The 4-Factor Sector Score ranks research priority, not portfolio action. Management quality, catalysts and risks need equally fresh evidence before capital is deployed.
- An “all companies” line chart preserves completeness, but rank changes should be checked against reporting dates before drawing a conclusion.
- 8 companies have older fundamental reporting dates than the sector’s freshest reporters; their ranks carry a stale marker.
How was this comparison built?
This comparison is built from the reported filings of 21 Farm & Heavy Construction Machinery companies, normalized to a common $ scale and a shared quarter axis of up to 20 quarters each. Fundamentals run through Sep 2026 and market data through 2026-09-16.
Farm & Heavy Construction Machinery company comparison FAQs
These 22 answers restate the Farm & Heavy Construction Machinery comparison above in question form. Every one is computed from the same 21 companies and the same reported filings as the rankings and charts, current through Sep 2026. Price and relative-strength answers run through 2026-09-16.

How is the 4-Factor Sector Score calculated?

Which Farm & Heavy Construction Machinery company earns the highest return on capital?
SunScout Holding Limited leads on return on capital employed at 30.5%, across 21 of 21 companies. Read it beside the length of its reported history: a high return that repeats for years is evidence of a durable business, while a single high reading can be a small capital base or one good year.
Which Farm & Heavy Construction Machinery stock is the cheapest?
On PEG — where a LOWER number is cheaper — The Manitowoc Company, Inc. screens cheapest at 0.14×. Only 10 of 21 companies have earnings and growth steady enough for the ratio to mean anything, so this is not a sector-wide "cheapest stock" verdict.

Which Farm & Heavy Construction Machinery stock has the strongest price momentum?
The Manitowoc Company, Inc. has the strongest relative strength against S&P 500. Relative strength answers last, after growth, quality and valuation: price can move well before the fundamentals confirm it, and sometimes without them confirming at all.

Deere & Company scores 66.4 out of 100 with 85.3% evidence confidence, from 19.8 points on growth and earnings, 15.9 on capital efficiency, 12.5 on valuation and 18.2 on relative strength.

What is the Farm & Heavy Construction Machinery sector's P/E ratio?
The median price-to-earnings ratio across the 21 Farm & Heavy Construction Machinery companies on this page is 27.7×, measured on the 20 that report a comparable figure.

Why are some values on this page blank?
A blank means that company did not report a comparable figure for that period, so nothing is shown.
