Caterpillar's shares fall on fears demand may have peaked

Image
April 27 (Reuters) - Heavy machinery maker Caterpillar Inc (CAT.N) topped Wall Street expectations with a 31% rise in profit on Thursday but a flat order backlog left analysts thinking demand may have peaked and the shares tumbled. Profit in the first quarter was lifted by a boost in U.S. infrastructure spending which kept order books full and the company was able to raise prices to soften the hit from higher costs. But the shares fell as much as 4.7% in early trading after the company noted an increase in dealer inventories. An unchanged order backlog compared to the previous quarters may be an indicator of a slowdown in equipment purchases, analysts said. "At a high level these are really strong results -- the initial stock reaction reflects some degree of 'is this the best and have we peaked out," said Kristen Owen, executive director at Oppenheimer & Co Inc. Company executives attempted to reassure shareholders that dealer inventories are within the typical three

CrowdStrike makes a breakout move

Image
CrowdStrike lined up a powerhouse set of announcements at its annual Fal.Con user conference last week, but most exciting for me was the emphasis on expanding Falcon into a more comprehensive security platform. Moving to a platform approach While the acquisition of Bionic will strengthen CrowdStrike's cloud security offering, the more subtle -- but in my mind, more significant -- move is to open up CrowdStrike's Falcon architecture to become a security platform, supporting both security and now IT use cases. Underlying the move to a platform approach is the ability to openly ingest and analyze other third-party signals and data. "Now we can take third-party data and ingest it natively," CrowdStrike CEO George Kurtz said at the event. While I'm excited to see CrowdStrike move in this direction, I worry that this mention of natively is more about who owns the coveted analytics engine function, and less about the additional value or outcomes that are possible when th

Engineering management at IU International University of Applied Sciences: Bridging disciplines to boost employability

Image
Complex challenges are hardly ever solved by one single discipline. The late Steve Jobs summed it up best in 2011 when he shared that “technology, married with liberal arts, married with the humanities” fuelled the iPhone’s success. Much like the tech sector, modern business environments thrive when spearheaded by leaders with multidimensional understanding. The intersection of management and engineering, in particular, is becoming increasingly crucial — unsurprising, considering both technical and business skills dominate today’s job market. That said, employers are right to seek talents who can foster collaboration, streamline processes and encourage innovation in both domains. IU International University of Applied Sciences thrives at producing such standout candidates. Established in 1998, it has quickly become Germany’s largest university. Accredited by the German Council of Science and Humanities, its mission since its inception has been to create inclusive, global and wholly acc

Caterpillar invests in metals recycling startup company

Image
Construction equipment giant Caterpillar has invested in a startup company that specialises in critical metals refining. Caterpillar, through its subsidiary Caterpillar Ventures Capital, was one of several companies to contribute a total of US$44 million in Series B and non-dilutive financing to Massachusetts-based recycling company Nth Cycle. Nth Cycle is the developer of what is believed to be the only patented electro-extraction modular refining system in the world. Known as “The Oyster” and occupying a footprint of just 2,000 sq ft, the modular unit combines electrochemistry, chemical precipitation and filtration to process metal-bearing feed material and turn it into metal and metal salts for resale. Compared to the traditional, energy intensive smelting process (pyrometallurgy), the Oyster is said to offer a clean and “sustainable” way of refining metals, from feedstocks such as scrap, black mass, primary ore concentrates, and waste streams. Nth Cycle says the system “extracts me
