Every company has risks and challenges and Cummins (CMI)
is no exception, even if some of those risks are pretty familiar
(end-market cycles, the risk of vertical integration). While the
prospect of electric trucks is a newer challenge, as is a recent product
quality/warranty issue, there's really never been a time I can recall
when there wasn't some threat hanging over the shares.
While
I think some of the risks and worries are overstated, I don't
necessarily find these shares cheap today. I could see paying up into
the mid-$150s for the shares, but that's not really all that much upside
given where we are in the cycle. What's more, it seems like Cummins
gets a little more benefit of the doubt than other component companies -
some of the same sell-side analysts who believe that electrification
will crush Allison Transmission (ALSN) are more sanguine on Cummins' future in an EV world.
