"The construction equipment industry will be broadly affected by Trump’s tariffs. Competitors like Caterpillar also import significant amounts from outside the U.S."


"Due to high transportation costs for heavy construction / mining equipment, makers assemble them near the demand market. With 9 main factories around the world, we can adjust production ratios ... but different story if tariffs are imposed on imports from ALL countries"


"We will seek to boost [tariff-proof] software license revenue on automation etc"
