Construction Stocks To Add to Your Watchlist – November 17th

Caterpillar, Lowe’s Companies, Lennar, Deere & Company, Quanta Services, Trane Technologies, and Johnson Controls International are the seven Construction stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat’s stock screener tool. Construction stocks are shares of companies involved in building and developing residential, commercial, and infrastructure projects — including general contractors, construction materials and supplies manufacturers, heavy-equipment makers, and engineering/construction services firms. They are typically cyclical and sensitive to economic growth, housing starts, interest rates, commodity prices and government infrastructure spending, so investors use them to gain exposure to the building cycle but should expect higher volatility and project-specific risks. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Construction stocks within the last several days.
