📌 Closing
Oshkosh is a really cool company, as you can tell by the added image, it ranges from highly capable military vehicles to concrete trucks, loaders etc. this is right up my alley if we’re talking interests.
The company looks good in my opinion, the financial health also looks good but it definitely has room to become great or perhaps even excellent! The company has insider ownership but the main ownership is institutional, which is really solid at 92%.
I am pretty excited about the company however I don’t see a reason for a expedited research, so it will be put in the lower priority research list. This list is growing faster than that of the expedited research list, which saves me a lot of time. Hopefully this translates to better returns and more adequate timing once a “bargain” is identified.
