Caterpillar shares have fallen over 10% despite beating Q3 EPS estimates, as the market focuses on missed revenue and held full-year guidance. This decline is part of a broader weakness in the industrial sector, with Oshkosh also missing estimates and lowering guidance. The persistent sell-off in industrials suggests deep concerns about global infrastructure demand and potential economic slowdown, despite the strong GDP report.
