Capital Goods: Capital spending tends to increase midway through the business cycle, as the
economy is heating up and higher demand for products leads companies to expand their
production capacity. Demand in global export markets is key for agricultural equipment,
industrial machinery, and machine tools.


The Industrials industry as a whole can be placed in the Maturity phase.



Companies in the maturity phase can have new product lines that exist in the Introduction
or Growth phases (Oshkosh).
Other companies within the sector can be in the Introduction or Growth phase (First Solar).
Many mature companies can be entering large, untapped growth markets
internationally (Emerson or GE).

Outlook for U.S. Industrial activity much better for the rest of ’09
and into ’10 (Morningstar Q4 Outlook 9/30/09).

ISM purchasing managers survey: ratio of new orders to
inventories indicates industrial production will be materially
higher.
 Ratio’s highest point in 30 years.
 Been at this level only 10 out of 740 months measured.

The Fed Beige Book offers mixed expectations for near-term
outlook on manufacturing (10/21/09).



Expecting slight gains and modest economic growth.
Deferred projects and maintenance to conserve capital.
Increasing optimism leading to more new hires and increased
spending on capital goods.

The Industrials sector is strongly correlated with the S&P
500, real GDP, commercial and industrial loans, and durable
goods orders.

Industrials appear to be correlated to Capital Spending with the
sector acting as a leading indicator by approximately 6 months.

Don’t wait for Capital Spending to completely return before
jumping on board Industrials?
