Why investing for the long run, especially if you buy certain popular stocks, could reap huge rewards.

Vertiv (VRT) stock gained 75.9% over the past year, more than four times the S&P 500's 16.7% return.

The question analysts keep raising is delivery.
Paulo Ruiz used Morgan Stanley’s Laguna Conference to reset how Wall Street sees Eaton’s AI power role.
Eaton (ETN) saw its shares surge in the last session with trading volume being higher than average. The latest trend in earnings estimate revisions could translate into further price increase in the near term.

Eaton (ETN) trades about 15% below its 52-week high and has gained less than the S&P 500 over the past year. It is in the middle of what it calls a record-scale capacity build, and that cost lands before the revenue does. You can be paid now for agreeing to buy the shares much lower, and you keep the payment either way.

Donaldson (DCI) has gained 9.1% over the past twelve months and still trades about 20% below its 52-week high.

The shrinking count is the case for buying the pullback. It is also the part that goes quiet in fiscal 2027.








Two power and cooling giants are chasing the same AI boom. But which one offers the more direct way to play it?
