Looking at Caterpillar’s chart relative to its industrials sector, it is “currently forming this double top, after what has been a very strong relative performance since the November low,” Zhang mentioned. He added that this was a “good time to bet on what could be some underperformance.”
Caterpillar is trading at 17 times its next year’s earning, which is a “pretty rich premium to its relative history,” Zhang further stated.
