"Who's having a good time? Uh, it's Caterpillar. Ticker CAT up as much as 4%. So posted high third quarter revenue. But the interesting thing is that it got a boost from energy and transportation business because you have rising demand for equipment needed to fuel AI data centers and that's what's driving them because they provide the battery storage, the backup generators for industries and that's going to be big for these AI data centers. ... Now they're building data centers. They make boring yellow bulldozers."

The commentary on Caterpillar emphasizes its strong Q3 performance and a surprising catalyst: its role in serving the AI data center market through energy and transportation solutions. Despite being known for traditional heavy equipment, Caterpillar is positioned to benefit from new growth avenues.
