Advisors' Opinion:- [By Rich Smith]
Huh? What?
I know. That hardly seems to make sense, does it? Oshkosh simply crushed analyst earnings estimates for the quarter, delivering $0.97 per share in profit where only $0.86 were forecast. It added a dime to its full-year forecast as well, predicting that earnings could rise as high as $3.15 by year-end. First-half operating profit margins, at 5.8%, still fall far short of rival armored-vehicle makers Textron (NYSE: TXT ) and General Dynamics (NYSE: GD ) . But Oshkosh is now neck-and-neck with heavy-equipment maker Terex (NYSE: TEX ) , and is simply smoking unprofitable rival MRAP maker Navistar (NYSE: NAV ) .
