Eaton Corp (NYSE:ETN) Bolsa

Eaton Corp

Founded in 1911 by Joseph Eaton, the eponymous company began by selling truck axles in New Jersey. Eaton has since become an industrial powerhouse largely through acquisitions in various end markets. Eaton's portfolio can broadly be divided into two parts: its electrical and industrial businesses. Its electrical portfolio (representing around 70% of company revenue) sells components within data centers, utilities, and commercial and residential buildings, while its industrial business (30% of revenue) sells components within commercial and passenger vehicles and aircraft. Eaton receives favorable tax treatment as a domiciliary of Ireland, but it generates over half of its revenue within the US.

Eaton Corporation PLC (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ETN#NYSE">ETN</a>) shares were rising in early trading on Monday after the company announced on Friday <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45169667/eatons-q1-organic-sales-surge-9-on-high-demand-boosts-fy25-guidance">upbeat first-quarter results</a>.
The announcement came amid an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings">exciting earnings season</a>. Here are some key analyst takeaways.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">RBC Capital Markets On Eaton</h1>
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/584847d9ee7bf6000154d223/deane-dray">Analyst </a><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/584847d9ee7bf6000154d223/deane-dray">Deane Dray</a> maintained an Outperform rating, while raising the price target from $336 to $356.
Eaton generated organic growth of 9%, ahead of consensus of 6%, Dray said in a note. The beat was driven by electrical, data center, utility and aerospace, "with strong orders, backlog growth, and active negotiation pipeline," he added.
Management reaffirmed their full-year guidance, with better revenue projections offsetting a modest impact of tariffs on margins, the analyst stated. "Eaton's broad portfolio positioning in ongoing data center upcycle (17% of revenues), access to the next-gen architecture/design, modular solutions, and accretive acquisitions fuel the growth algorithm," he further wrote.

Live On CNBC, Stephanie Link Announces Bought More Eaton

U.S. stocks advanced across the board by midday Friday, with the S&amp;P 500 eyeing its ninth consecutive day of gains—poised for the longest winning <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets">streak since May 2024.</a>
Risk appetite remained firm, underpinned by solid corporate earnings and a stronger-than-expected April jobs report. Nonfarm payrolls rose by 177,000, beating expectations of 130,000 and easing concerns over tariff-related hiring slowdowns.
All eleven S&amp;P 500 sectors traded in positive territory, led slightly by financials over technology. Major indexes have now fully recovered from the declines sparked on April 2, when President Donald Trump announced sweeping tariffs across trading partners.
The Nasdaq 100 climbed to levels last seen in late March, capping a strong week for tech stocks. Among the Magnificent Seven, all were on pace to close the week higher except Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), which slipped 4% as strong earnings were overshadowed by weaker sales in China.
The U.S. dollar index resumed its decline, pressured by renewed calls from President Trump for the Federal Reserve to lower interest rates ahead of next week's policy meeting.
