Movement Alert｜Caterpillar Rises 3.04% in Regular Trading, JPMorgan Raises Target Price to $1165 Amid Sustained Data Center Demand

Market Focus06-18 21:48

On June 18, Caterpillar rose 3.04% in regular trading, trading at $990.51/share, with turnover of $956 million. The rally was driven by JPMorgan raising its target price from $1,125 to $1,165 while maintaining an overweight rating, reflecting institutional confidence in the company's medium-to-long-term growth trajectory.

The target price upgrade comes as management previously confirmed that the AI computing boom is fueling surging global data center backup power demand, with orders concentrated in the 1,600kW to 3,000kW range — a segment fully covered by Caterpillar's two Tianjin-based factories. Order volumes remain at elevated levels, providing fundamental support for the valuation upgrade. The stock had earlier pulled back on concerns that AI-related valuations had become stretched, but management's explicit confirmation of robust demand has progressively eased investor apprehension.

Within the Construction Machinery and Heavy Trucks sector, peers demonstrated broad strength, with Terex up 3.61%, PACCAR up 2.03%, Cummins up 1.96%, and Westport Fuel up 12.97%, reinforcing upward momentum through sector resonance.
