We expect another year of strong earnings growth from this best-of-breed industrial stock. Quarterly results As we can see in the chart below, this was an all-around strong quarter for Linde. In APAC (27.6% of sales), growth was led by end markets in chemicals, energy, and manufacturing. Updated expectations are for a mild recovery in a few end markets in China for the first half of 2024. EMEA (29.3% of sales) showed growth across all "resilient" end markets, which Linde defines as more consumer-related (healthcare, food and beverage, and electronics), while industrial end markets (manufacturing, chemicals and energy, and metals and mining) lagged.

LIN YTD mountain Linde YTD Bottom line Industrial gas giant Linde (LIN) delivered the kind of quarter we've come to expect: Double-digit earnings growth and a lift to its profit guidance. While the top-line sales figure was light, Linde's strong operating margin expansion in the quarter more than made up for it. In good economic times and bad, Linde's model of continued margin expansion with project growth has enabled earnings per share growth of at least 10% annually. That means the current backlog of $4.5 billion should be worth a few percentage points of earnings growth next year. Linde sees fourth-quarter earnings per share falling to between $3.38 and $3.48, compared with the $3.46 consensus estimate from analysts.

Recon Team ST Idaho was tasked with locating and destroying a fuel pipeline inside Laos. Just shy of a month earlier, on Thanksgiving Day, ST Idaho had barely survived a cross-border operation in Cambodia. ST Idaho debated if it was possible to lose the NVA and continue their mission but ultimately deiced against it. ST Idaho adjusted its path and continued its slow progress, throwing grenades at any noise they heard, nightmares of previous close-calls on their minds. Thick black smoke choked and blinded ST Idaho, but the SOG operators could see enemy troops advancing close behind the flames.
