Caterpillar stock plunges on Q3 sales miss despite strong data-center business

Caterpillar's shares dropped sharply after the company reported a slight miss in third-quarter sales. While the power and energy segment, boosted by data-center construction, showed strong growth and price gains, the broader construction industries segment underperformed. This mixed performance disappointed investors and led to Caterpillar's biggest stock loss in years. The outcome highlights challenges in the construction sector despite pockets of strength in data-center related business.

Caterpillar's stock is down 11.13% on Pluang as of Oct 29, 2026 19:43 WIB, marking a significant drop for the industrial giant. The share price currently stands at USD 634.00, well below its 52-week high of $1.06K. Trading volume remains active with over 3.4 million shares exchanged, reflecting strong investor reaction to recent earnings news.
