As part of my ETF DIY project, I analyzed $CAT (+0,96%) analyzed them using my self-developed valuation system:
Moat: 4/5 - Leader in construction machinery, Technologically complex products, Difficult market entry for competitors
Growth: 2/5 - Sales slightly declining and this is expected to continue in the future
Risk: 3/5 - Dependence on macroeconomic factors and competitive pressure from favorable competition
Dividend quality: 1/1 - Dividend aristocrat
Belief: 0/1 - Solid company, but unlikely to outperform the market
Total: 10/17
Savings plan is run with factor 3.
If you are not yet familiar with my system and the ETF-DIY project - just take a look at my profile.
