Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about PACCAR stock:

• 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "PACCAR’s earnings and revenues beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate in the second quarter. Compared with the year-ago figures, the company’s earnings per share were lower, whereas the revenue was higher. A strong balance sheet has been enabling it to invest in the development of new technologies, enhanced manufacturing facilities and after-market support. A stable market has also enabled PACCAR to project an increase in volume sales for 2017 in comparison to the previous year. However, a decline in used truck prices and a tough competition among peers in the commercial truck market remain a concern. The company’s shares have also significantly underperformed the industry it belongs to." (7/31/2017)
