Daily closes. Earnings/event dots are placed inline.
Industries move in repeating boom-and-bust cycles. This shows where this stock’s industry sits in that cycle, stage by stage (recovery → expansion → supercycle → steady → deceleration → contraction), from its fundamentals (orders, revenue, capital spending), not the stock’s price.
A booming industry is a tailwind for the names in it; a contracting one is a headwind. Companies in the same industry tend to rise and fall together with the cycle, the way a tide lifts and lowers every boat in the harbor at once, so a large part of a stock’s swing can come from where its industry sits rather than from the company itself. It’s context for reading the company’s results, not a buy/sell call. Full explanation →
Construction Machinery & Heavy Transportation Equipment is in recovery. Describes the industry's cycle state, not a call on this stock.
The stage band shows the industry’s cycle over the chart’s timeline (each color a stage); a ▼ marks a quarter its growth inflected down — amber is an unconfirmed watch, red is confirmed the next quarter. Use “Overlay cycle on chart” to tint the price chart by stage. The industry’s fundamentals, not a signal on this stock.
Primary pillar broken — Revenue at least $3 billion in 2026: FY26 guidance $2.30B-$2.40B vs $3.00B target.
View ThesisRevenue is growing steadily — about 9% over the past year.
View GrowthManagement screens weak on capital allocation, earnings delivery, the balance sheet.
View ManagementExpectations look reasonable — what the market is pricing in sits in line with or below what analysts forecast.
View ValuationThis stock is volatile — it swings about 2% on a typical day and fell roughly 26% in its worst 12-month stretch.
View RiskMTW's growth depends on achieving at least $3 billion in revenue for 2026. Recent guidance suggests revenue will be between $2.30 billion and $2.40 billion, below expectations. Revenue grew 10% year over year, and the last quarter beat estimates. It trades at 28.5× P/E versus a peer median of 19.5×. This indicates the price reflects less growth than we forecast. A specific risk is the 28% probability of missing outlooks, which could further impact credibility. Peer multiples imply a price about 26% above where it trades. This read is provisional.
Trailing returns as of 2026-09-14. MTW is total return (includes dividends); the S&P 500 benchmark is price return (the index excludes dividends).

A consensus fair price across 10 valuation methods, at three horizons. As of 2026-09-14. Estimates are diagnostics, not price targets. Short-horizon estimates are close to coin-flips, so confidence is a method-agreement read, not a prediction.

Above average on quality vs scored peers
A second lens on the 12-month fair value: for companies that score high on measured quality (profitability, balance-sheet safety, earnings stability), this read trusts more of today's profit margins instead of averaging them toward their multi-year history the way the headline number does. Shown alongside the fair value above, not in place of it. A diagnostic, not a price target or a buy/sell signal.
