CAT powers up with data center demand, tariff hopes

Watch: Q1 2026 earnings will reveal backlog-to-revenue conversion, margin accretion from power contracts, and impact of any tariff policy changes.

Full analysis

CAT is driving robust sales growth in diesel and natural gas engines for hyperscale data center backup power, backed by a large backlog. Potential tariff suspensions by Trump in 2026 could boost earnings by lowering costs and easing Fed rate pressures. Insider selling totals over $117M, offset slightly by a $120k buy, while estimate revisions and institutional holdings signal confidence.

CAT's growth in data center power generators and tariff tailwinds could sustain its shift from cyclical heavy equipment to higher-margin, recurring revenue streams, supporting its premium valuation and accelerating revenue momentum.
