Check Out What Whales Are Doing With CAT

China's high-speed rail progress will take center stage at the US-China Rail Transit Industry Roundtable in Beijing, where U.S. firms like Westinghouse Air Brake Technologies Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WAB#NYSE">WAB</a>), Caterpillar (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CAT#NYSE">CAT</a>), Cummins (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMI#NYSE">CMI</a>), L B Foster Co (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FSTR#NASDAQ">FSTR</a>) and 3M Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MMM#NYSE">MMM</a>) will participate.
What Happened: China&#8217;s high-speed rail development has been progressing at an impressive pace, surpassing the United States. The US-China Rail Transit Industry Roundtable is expected to address this issue, with a focus on the challenges faced by American projects due to funding shortages and political pressures, <a href="https://www.scmp.com/economy/global-economy/article/3318627/chinas-speedy-maglev-train-breaks-records-us-ambitions-go-rails?module=top_story&amp;pgtype=homepage">reported </a>by South China Morning Post. 
Industry representatives from both countries will also explore the potential for supply-chain collaboration in the railway sector. The event is organized by&nbsp;the China Council for the&nbsp;Promotion of International Trade.
Wang Yiwei, head of Renmin University&#8216;s Institute of International Affairs in Beijing, attributed the slow progress of high-speed rail in the United States to political and financial constraints. He highlighted President Donald Trump&#8216;s opposition to California&#8217;s high-speed rail project as an example of these challenges.
Wang pointed out that China's success in high-speed rail stems from long-term government planning, strategic investment, and centralized oversight. 
&#8220;Even if high-speed rail projects are not profitable in the short term, China can still build them for strategic reasons,&#8221; stated Wang.

Why It Matters: The U.S.-China Rail Transit Industry Roundtable comes at a time when the U.S. is facing challenges in its high-speed rail projects. In a recent development, the Trump administration decided to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46461319/trump-cancels-4-billion-funding-for-california-high-speed-rail-project-calls-it-disastrously-overpriced">withdraw $4 billion</a> in federal funding from California&#8217;s high-speed rail project, citing excessive costs and unmet promises. This move has further highlighted the difficulties faced by the US in competing with China&#8217;s high-speed rail advancements.
That being said, the US Department of Transportation had <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45744869/us-dot-allocates-5-4-billion-for-bridge-infrastructure-fund-scraps-diversity-climate-criteria-for-applicants-report">allocated $5.4 billion</a> for the construction, replacement, or repair of bridges across the U.S. However, the department decided to remove climate change, environmental justice, diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) requirements from the grant application criteria.
These developments raise questions about America&#8217;s ability to keep up with China&#8217;s high-speed rail advancements and the potential impact on the country&#8217;s infrastructure and transportation sectors.

3M, Caterpillar, Cummins To Visit Beijing For Rail Supply Chain Talks As China Takes A Dig At US High-Speed Rail Delays

AI isn&#8217;t just consuming the world; it&#8217;s poised to devour the power grid. Big tech companies such as Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), Amazon (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) and Palantir (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>) are <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46471676/meta-palantir-amazon-ai-datacenter-growth">going all-in on artificial intelligence</a>, fueling a historic development of data center infrastructure. For ETF investors, that implies it&#8217;s time to move beyond Nvidia and begin focusing on the literal power behind the machine.
Goldman Sachs projects that global data center electricity demand will increase by 165% by 2030, making them among the world&#8217;s top 10 consumers of electricity. With capex cycles of $100 billion-plus underway, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs" target="_blank" rel="noopener">power generation-related ETFs</a>, infrastructure ETFs, and digital real estate ETFs are in play.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Power &amp; Utilities</h2>
With U.S. data-center electricity consumption set to surge, utility ETFs may enjoy long-term tailwinds.
Utilities Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLU#NYSE">XLU</a>) – owns large, regulated utilities such as NextEra (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NEE#NYSE">NEE</a>) and Duke Energy (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DUK#NYSE">DUK</a>), which may benefit from AI-fueled load growth.
First Trust Nasdaq Clean Edge Smart Grid Infrastructure ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GRID#NASDAQ">GRID</a>) – provides exposure to the firms upgrading the electrical grid, from smart meters to transmission technology. Johnson Controls International Plc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JCI#NYSE">JCI</a>), Eaton Corporation Plc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ETN#NYSE">ETN</a>) and ABB Ltd (OTCPK: ABBNY) hold the largest chunks of the fund&#8217;s holdings.
Invesco Solar ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TAN#NYSE">TAN</a>) – becomes more relevant since Goldman projects 25–30% of new generation will be provided by solar.
These funds provide investors with a diversified holding in the enormous re-wiring that AI will require.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Infrastructure &amp; Industrials</h2>
Behind each <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/artificial-intelligence">AI cluster</a> lies a concrete-intensive reality: HVACs, substations, turbines, and a substantial amount of steel. Infrastructure-based ETFs provide a straight shot at the buildout:
Global X U.S. Infrastructure Development ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PAVE#BATS">PAVE</a>) – has holdings such as Eaton and Nucor (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NUE#NYSE">NUE</a>), all related to power systems and data construction.
iShares U.S. Industrials ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IYJ#BATS">IYJ</a>) – has holdings in Caterpillar (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CAT#NYSE">CAT</a>), Eaton, and Emerson Electric (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EMR#NYSE">EMR</a>), essential providers of backup power and cooling systems.
Meta alone intends to construct two multi-gigawatt clusters of AI, pointing to a multi-year infrastructure-driven growth.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Digital Infrastructure &amp; REITs</h2>
As demand for data centers goes parabolic, real estate investment trusts (REITs) and digital infrastructure players are observing that narrowing supply-demand dynamics are propelling margins:
Real Estate Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLRE#NYSE">XLRE</a>) – more general exposure to REITs, with substantial stakes in digital infra. This ETF offers a long-term perspective on the physical and digital infrastructure supporting AI growth.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Quick Background: Why Now?</h2>
Goldman Sachs estimates that global data center demand will reach 92 GW by 2027, a 50% increase from late 2025, largely due to AI. Meta&#8217;s future Prometheus (1 GW) and Hyperion (5 GW) clusters indicate the size of things to come. Amazon and Palantir are also spending significant amounts on compute infrastructure.
Meanwhile, firms such as Caterpillar and Cummins (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMI#NYSE">CMI</a>) are experiencing billions of dollars&#8217; worth of new orders for data center-related generators, and Jabil (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JBL#NYSE">JBL</a>) has just increased its AI-related revenue estimate by $1 billion.
The AI revolution is being built from the ground up. From server racks to solar panels, the buildout of the data center is producing new champions across industries. And the wisest way to gain diversified exposure may very well be through ETFs that are quietly driving the next wave of AI.

A global buildout of datacenter infrastructure is charging ahead to meet the immense computing power needed for AI ambitions by tech giants like Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>), Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>)<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech"> and others. </a>
Goldman Sachs now expects global datacenter demand to soar 50% by 2027, setting the stage for a massive expansion in power generation and infrastructure investment across the AI value chain.
In a note shared this week, the firm analyst James Schneider projected that global datacenter demand will jump from 62 gigawatts (GW) in the second half of 2025 to 92 GW by 2027—a 50% increase in just over two years. AI workloads are expected to drive that growth, expanding their share of total demand from 13% to 28% by 2027, while traditional workloads shrink to 21%.
Overall, Goldman expects global datacenter power demand to rise 165% by 2030, a shift so large that, if isolated, it would place datacenters among the world's top 10 electricity consumers.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Can Supply Keep Up?</h2>
Datacenter supply is projected to grow nearly as fast, with global capacity rising from 68 GW today to 137 GW by 2030—a 15% compound annual growth rate. 
But power constraints are looming. In the U.S., where datacenters already consume 4% of electricity, Goldman forecasts that share to more than double by the end of the decade.
Meeting that power need will require 72 GW of new generation capacity, with 25%-30% likely coming from solar and 30% each from combined-cycle and peaker natural gas plants. 
Adding momentum to the datacenter arms race, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg recently posted on Threads that the company is building two multi-gigawatt AI clusters: Prometheus, a 1 GW supercluster expected in 2026, and Hyperion, which could deliver at least 5 GW of compute capacity by 2030.
"We&#8217;re… going to invest hundreds of billions of dollars into compute to build superintelligence," Zuckerberg wrote.
Bank of America analyst Justin Post said the statement "signals to the Street that the AI capex cycle is far from over." Post raised his 2026 Meta capex estimate by $6 billion and now expects $229 billion in total capex spend from 2025 to 2027.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Who Benefits From The Datacenter Boom?</h2>
According to Goldman, datacenter operators such as Digital Realty Trust Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DLR#NYSE">DLR</a>) and Equinix Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EQIX#NASDAQ">EQIX</a>) are positioned to sustain profitability above historic levels. The tight supply-demand balance also benefits infrastructure and industrial players.
Cummins Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMI#NYSE">CMI</a>) now sees 35% of its power generation sales linked to datacenters, while Caterpillar Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CAT#NYSE">CAT</a>) generates about $2.8 billion annually from the segment. Together, they&#8217;re projected to supply 6–7 GW in backup generator capacity this year.
Jabil Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JBL#NYSE">JBL</a>) raised its fiscal 2025 AI-related revenue forecast to $8.5 billion, up from $7.5 billion in the prior quarter, citing strong demand and near-peak utilization at some factories.

Here's How Much You Would Have Made Owning Caterpillar Stock In The Last 5 Years

In the current market session, Caterpillar Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CAT#NYSE">CAT</a>) stock price is at $405.32, after a 0.15% decrease. However, over the past month, the company's stock went up by 13.03%, and in the past year, by 12.12%. Shareholders might be interested in knowing whether the stock is overvalued, even if the company is not performing up to par in the current session.

<h3>A Look at Caterpillar P/E Relative to Its Competitors</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of 19.44 in the Machinery industry, Caterpillar Inc. has a higher P/E ratio of 19.8. Shareholders might be inclined to think that Caterpillar Inc. might perform better than its industry group. It's also possible that the stock is overvalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1752505249_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Caterpillar's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 6.04%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

Honeywell, Caterpillar, Freeport-McMoRan And A Health Care Stock On CNBC's 'Final Trades'

CNBC Halftime Report Final Trades: Honeywell International, Caterpillar, Freeport-McMoran, Amgen

Autonomous vehicles, or AVs, are no longer a distant dream or science fiction—they're hitting roads, farms and factories worldwide as breakthroughs in artificial intelligence spark a commercial revolution across <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/autonomous-vehicles">a $1.2 trillion industry.</a>
In a report shared with clients on Tuesday, Bank of America indicated that AVs have reached a pivotal inflection point thanks to dramatic advances in AI, simulation, and computing power.
To date, autonomous robotaxis have completed 186 million commercial miles as of April 2025. These vehicles are now operating in seven global cities, with plans to expand into 20 additional markets in the near future.
&#8220;Autonomous vehicles are having their ‘ChatGPT moment' and are no longer a moonshot," said the bank&#8217;s analyst Martyn Briggs.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">AI, Not Just Automation, Is Driving The AV Revolution</h2>
Unlike earlier generations of self-driving systems, which relied on hard-coded software and maps, the latest wave of AVs is driven by "physical AI," according to the report.
This includes neural networks that continuously learn from real-world data and simulation environments known as "digital twins," which drastically reduce the need for on-road testing.
New capabilities like language models are adding "reasoning and interpretability to driving decisions," Briggs said, while supercomputers integrated into vehicles are enabling autonomous driving in new geographies and use cases.
The cost to deploy AVs is also falling. Hardware, such as LiDAR sensors, is getting cheaper.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Market Potential: Not Just Cars—Everything That Moves</h2>
The AV market is broader than just robotaxis. While cars represent a $700 billion opportunity by 2040, Bank of America estimates the total addressable market doubles to $1.2 trillion when including autonomous trucks, public transit, agricultural and mining vehicles. 
Some off-road AVs are already commercially available, with reported gains of 30% in productivity and 50% labor cost savings in industries like agriculture and mining.
Robotrucks are set to disrupt the $4 trillion global freight market. Autonomous trucking is accelerating fast, with 90 active pilot programs worldwide—two-thirds of which target long-haul freight. 
Seven of these pilots are nearing commercialization, with the goal of large-scale rollouts by 2027. Briggs said the freight industry is poised for transformation as AVs address "structural challenges like driver shortages" while reducing costs.
The story is no longer just about cars: &#8220;Anything that moves could become autonomous," Briggs said.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">How to Invest In Autonomous Vehicle Market: 28 Stocks To Watch</h3>

Autonomous Vehicles Hit Their 'ChatGPT Moment' — Best Stocks To Watch Now

A collapsing U.S. dollar is reshaping the global investing landscape, and seven U.S. companies with strong international sales could be the biggest winners if the greenback keeps sliding into the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s">second half of 2025.</a>
The U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) — a widely followed gauge tracking the greenback&#8217;s performance against a basket of currencies — has plunged 10.5% year-to-date, logging its worst first-half performance since 1991 and marking five straight months of declines, a streak not seen since 2017.
The move is stirring investor attention toward U.S. multinationals that earn the bulk of their revenue abroad, as a weaker dollar makes their goods and services more affordable in foreign markets and boosts the value of overseas profits.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">What Triggered The Dollar Collapse?</h1>
The dollar's decline defied early expectations of strength under President Donald Trump, whose tax cuts and protectionist trade agenda initially pointed to a stronger greenback — but ultimately had the opposite effect.
The turning point came in March, when Germany scrapped its fiscal restraint and launched a large-scale stimulus, while the EU unveiled its €800 billion "ReArm Europe" plan. Capital quickly shifted into the eurozone and triggered a sharp euro appreciation. 
In April, Trump's sweeping "Liberation Day" tariffs sparked uncertainty and heightened market anxiety over U.S. assets.
The dollar took another hit when the U.S. economy contracted 0.5% in the first quarter, and Moody's downgraded U.S. sovereign debt, stripping the country of its last AAA rating amid mounting debt and rising interest costs.
The situation worsened as President Trump escalated attacks on the Federal Reserve's independence, repeatedly pressuring Chair Jerome Powell to cut interest rates. The political interference rattled markets, fueling speculation that Powell could be replaced in May 2026 by a more dovish and Trump-aligned successor, further eroding confidence in the dollar.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">7 U.S. Multinationals Rallying As The Dollar Sinks</h1>
A weaker dollar boosts U.S. companies that sell most of their goods or services abroad by increasing their global competitiveness and raising the value of foreign revenues when converted back to dollars.
Here are seven U.S. stocks that are not only globally exposed — but also outperformed the market in June as the greenback fell:
