Investment Thesis — Terex Corporation
The market underestimates Terex's ability to sustain above-cycle margins as secular infrastructure and electrification trends drive non-cyclical demand for its equipment. Investors are still pricing TEX as a late-cycle industrial, missing the stickiness of its order book and aftermarket revenue streams.
Catalysts

- Faster-than-expected growth in aftermarket/services revenue
- New product launches tied to electrification and sustainability mandates
Risk Factors

- Execution missteps in scaling aftermarket/services business
