barrons3	Last year they bought the Trane HVAC business, explains Karen Finerman. In other words, at the worst possible time, they transformed their company into a firm that is dependent on commercial construction. It's no surprise that since the acquistion they've been suffering. However, they’ve recently been able to refinance their debt and it looks like the construction market is starting to come back. As a result I have the stock on my radar but I’m not be a buyer yet, she says.	Love	September 09, 2009
Stockpickr Staff	In a post last week to his RealMoney blog, Cramer wrote: "How come people aren't taking profits in Caterpillar after this historic run? Or Ingersoll-Rand (IR)? Why didn't people slaughter the natural gas stocks when natural gas failed to break out? How could Chesapeake (CHK) be up so much?"	Love	August 11, 2009
RhinoStocks	This heavy equipment company is plowing headfirst into the emerging markets -- the only place where manufacturers are expecting double digit growth right now.	Love	August 03, 2009
barrons3	Buy - Price 27.48 on July 28 by Sterne Agee & Leach [Second-quarter '09 EPS came in] at the high end of guidance....Reported 2Q09 EPS from continuing operations of 41 cents was above First Call's consensus 39 cents.... Gross productivity of 5.6% [was] driven by better-than-projected cost control, restructuring benefits and Trane Synergies.... Cash generation was excellent, enabling IR to reduce debt....Orders declined 23%....[Our] near-term target goes up 29, but shares could double over two to three years....We have raised our 2010 EPS to $2, from $1.80. Market cap: $7.7 billion.	Love	August 02, 2009

barrons3	On stocks of companies that have significantly lowered earnings guidance, buy defensive puts. This works for Texas Instruments (TXN), Ingersoll-Rand (IR), Eaton (ETN), International Paper (IP), National Semiconductor (NSM), Sandisk (SNDK), Illinois Tool Works (ITW), Massey Energy (MEE), Parker Hannifin (PH), Estée Lauder (EL), Time Warner (TWX), CSX (CSX) and Norfolk Southern (NSC).

sarah z	From a recent Mad Money show: "No, no. The quarter's going to be bad. I think they're going to have a disappointing quarter and you're going to be able to buy it lower."	Love	January 12, 2009
barrons3	Those who believe the stimulus will work can buy Black & Decker (BDK) or ITT (ITT) or Hewlett-Packard (HPQ). They can buy Ingersoll Rand (IR) and Freeport-McMoRan (FCX).	Love	December 18, 2008
barrons3	Ingersoll-Rand [IR] is trading at only 4 times forward earnings, adds Guy Adami. That’s not just a value, that’s absurd.	Love	October 29, 2008
barrons3	A name like Ingersoll (IR) might work for investors, too. That company reported disappointing earnings and lowered estimates, but still the stock is down only about 50 cents. A stronger company in another sector, Cramer said, might have dropped lower.	Love	October 16, 2008
barrons3	Ingersoll-Rand (IR) is only an $8 billion company. That's incredible, given its earnings power and its de-cyclicalizaton.	Love	October 09, 2008

barrons2	But a 31% stock slide since October, compared with the mere 6% blemish on its peers, may have factored in most of these downside risks. "We believe that the intrinsic characteristics and capabilities of IR's revamped business portfolio are not yet widely appreciated by investors," says KeyBanc analyst Jeffrey Hammond, who initiated coverage of the stock last week with a Buy rating. Skepticism about market challenges and the ability to execute "is fully priced into IR shares." In fact, the combination of scale and market-leading brands should help increase profits and cut costs, with bullish money managers expecting the company to earn $6 a share by 2010 -- up from an estimated $3.69 in 2008 and $4.35 in 2009. Its less cyclical assets also should drive more predictable returns -- once the market wises up to the reformed stock, which is rated Buy by only five out of 17 sell-side analysts. KeyBanc's price target: 49.	Love	June 28, 2008
barrons2	In the "new-tech" space, Cramer still likes Ingersoll-Rand (IR), Emerson (EMR), Eaton (ETN) and Parker Hannifin (PH).	Love	June 19, 2008
