Caterpillar Inc.’s second-quarter profit jumped 34 percent as stronger sales in developing countries outpaced slowing growth in North America and higher raw material and freight costs.

Η εφαρμογή με το όνομα Caterpillar™ πλέον μετονομάζεται σε Kate. Για την αλλαγή του ονόματος ευθύνεται η γνωστή πολυεθνική εταιρεία κατασκευστικών υλικών, Caterpillar! Γνωρίζουμε πως δύο εταιρείες είναι δυνατόν να έχουν το ίδιο όνομα σε κάποιο προιόν, υπηρεσία ή ακόμα και στην εταιρική τους ταυτότητα, αρκεί το αντικείμενο εργασίας να είναι διαφορετικό.

It may interest you to know that the Application Formerly Known as Caterpillar™ will henceforth be known as Kate. Kate still isn’t a cheap date, but she has a more attractive name at least. The change evidently came about as a result of Caterpillar — the heavy construction equipment company — asking RIP Dev [...]

The Caterpillar 797 is the largest truck ever. But unless you work in a mine, you're probably never going to see one. That's a shame, because this is the real thing: a vehicle that's authentically awesome. Not awesome in a jokey monster truck sort of way, and not a goof like a pickup built on a Kenworth chassis, but a big, serious machine built for an epic, real-world task. Mining may well be the opposite of show business, but this truck has star power to spare. As we approach the two prototype 797s in the yard of Caterpillar's Arizona training facility, their scale seems otherworldly. They stand 23 feet 9 inches tall when the dump bodies are down, and 49 feet 3 inches when they're tilted up, which means they dwarf the 240-ton 793C that used to be Cat's biggest truck. Nose the front end o

It's the little things which envelop us in the mysteries of life and the world around us. How glorious a gentle caterpillar preparing to make his cocoon is. the vibrant yellows and blacks curled around him pinch your eyes. But he is only a shadow of what he will be. For the same creature to have the experience of both being earthbound to crawl through the trenches of dirt and being free to glide along the breeze is astounding. Metamorphosis. It gives any of us who struggle through the muck and mud hope that we could someday transform ourselves.
While having a picnic at a local park Saturday afternoon, I felt something on my leg. I reached under the picnic table and brushed something off my leg. I immediately tried to process the sensation of prickly hairs and the surprising weight of the something I had touched. As I filled with adrenaline, I looked under the picnic table to find the largest caterpillar I have ever seen.
I was pretty creeped out for a while, and my sandwich never really tasted the same after the incident. I finally took the caterpiller over to a nearby tree to spare future picnic’ers.
coming home today i saw this caterpillar hanging for his life on a single branch of a yellow flower bearing tree. but i guess he is doing well. thanks to all those feets. who will ever thought that this caterpillar in time will soon become a colorful butterfly. lessons in real estate: it always takes time for everything to sell. place your feets firmly on the ground. its all about not giving up and hanging on.
Lucy & The CaterpillarGenre: Electro / Comedy / Grindcore From: United Kingdom From what I can gather Lucy is an 18 year old female solo artist without a Lepidoptera in sight, although admittedly I've never seen her live so I could be wrong. Also the description of her music as Electro comedy grindcore is about the most misleading description I've come across. Like Vashti Bunyan covering Phoebe Buffay's Smelly Cat or the acoustic offspring of an IVF experiment involving Joanna Newsom and Lily Allen, Lucy's brand of perky, chirpy, slightly fey, acoustic folkpop (fop music??) is an acquired taste a bit like a Starbucks Cheese and Marmite Panini (which incidentally is the only Panini that this devil likes). With Lucy and her tubular insect friend there'll be no middle ground, you'll either love her (which I do) or hate her (go to this cowandfield.com and search for caterpillar for a rather vicipous and hugely unfair review). Lucy and her herbivorous insect pal have certainly bee

This may not be a completely Bright Idea, but it is still unique. Pros: you won’t accidentally dent an adjacent car in a parking lot. Cons: costly repair bills, and getting stuck in/out of the car when the battery dies. According to the clip, this is a 1993 Lincoln Mark VIII that was selling on eBay. Via OhGizmo!

Investment Jungle reader Seabiscuit requested that I have a look at Caterpiller Inc. which trades on the NYSE under the symbol CAT. Seabiscuit got some “goofy numbers” so let’s see what we can come up with.
Company Profile:
From Yahoo Finance
Caterpillar, Inc. manufactures construction and mining equipment, diesel and natural gas engines, and industrial gas turbines. The company operates in three business lines: Machinery, Engines, and Financial Products.
CAT is a large cap stock with a market capitalization of $51.91B.
Financial Analysis:
Let’s have a look at the Big Five and see if a moat exists.
Starting with the most important Return on Invested Capital (ROIC), I see that Caterpiller isn’t quite up to snuff for a Rule #1 investor. Phil Town demands a ROIC of 10%. However, 6 of the 10 years have sub 10% ROIC. The 5 year average just misses at 9.50%. However, there does seem to be a glimmer of hope as the trend in the ROIC has been steadily clim
In early February I posted on Caterpillar (CAT) "If you absolutely must own this stock and plan to hold it for years go ahead and buy it now. Selling at $67, shares are fairly priced but not priced great. Cat at this level is not a value, at $58 it was but that was before the buyback was announced (causing the run). If my middle of the road estimate is too high then shares fall from here, if it is low they go up. The risk / reward is evenly balanced. To minimize this risk and tilt the balance...

Processionary Caterpillar Here is another photo of the hairy "Processionary Caterpillar" we have been observing (see my previous post Caterpillar Migration). We have been tracking these caterpillars (caterpillers?) for the past few days, and have seen them processing many times now. They seem to be moving back and forth between the middle of our drive way (a very inconvenient position for us!), and a few camphor-laurel trees we have about. They appear to be able to move very quickly when they want to! Hopefully they settle down soon to pupate, otherwise someone will run over them sooner or later!Other blogs:

Komatsu Ltd. (KMTUY) is a Japanese entity that engages in the manufacture and sale of construction and mining equipment, industrial machinery & vehicles and electronics products. It is also expanding its businesses into other areas such as housing, transportation and logistics equipment. One could consider Komatsu the Japanese version of Caterpillar (CAT). The stock trades on pink sheets here in the US, but that should not deter investors looking to capitalize on the multi-year expansion currently taking place in Japan. In March 2006, the company reported an annual earnings increase of 77% over 2005. Komatsu is not an obscure operation that you've never heard of. In fact, it has been marketing its products in the US since the 1960's. In 1970, it established a North American operation and is the second-largest manufacturer and supplier of construction equipment in the world today with nearly 2000 employees just in North America. Lately, the company has been taking steps to strengthen
The kids, the wife, and I spent a few minutes in the evening air just before dinner tonight to say goodbye to a good friend. He only spent a couple of days with us, before he exploded with poop and died.He will be missed; but Jarod made a nifty headstone out of cardboard and paper, and he is now resting peacefully in our back yard (Gus the caterpillar, not Jarod).Zoning restrictions on this sort of thing will be researched in the morning.
Did you notice I'm Flappy? An actual Flappy Bird. I'm not sure how it's happened, but I'll take it.We need to get a Borat party together again. I have to see it once more in the theatre. We were talking about it at a party and we who had seen it (oh, and blacking it out to the knee! and the stupid fist! red water-panties!) were like secret initiates, with those who hadn't just politely trying to take in the intensity of our reactions while having no real clue about the importance of the film.In a similar vein, as far as I can tell having only read the preface and two chapters of Lamb, T's latest read is keeping us laughing. The new priest gave it to everyone in his small group for Christmas. I've never even heard of it. T is in stitches.Shifting gears, both monarch caterpillars B collected the other day are going to be chrysalids by tomorrow morning, which is just as well because our milkweed is dying from an old weedwacking injury I stepped on and I can't find any more in town
