Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Emerson Electric Company stock:

• 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Emerson’s second-quarter fiscal 2017 adjusted earnings were in line with the Zacks Consensus Estimate, and inched up 2% from the year-ago tally on the back of an improving macro environment, restructuring benefits and lower expenses. Going forward, the company’s aggressive restructuring actions and strategic divestures are expected to boost performance. Emerson seems well positioned to benefit from global infrastructure growth, as its core businesses hold dominant positions in markets tied to energy efficiency and infrastructure spending. However, on the flip side, prolonged softness in the oil and gas markets has affected both capital spending and operational expenditure of clients, thereby hurting Emerson’s order rates in power generating alternators and electrical distribution businesses. In light of these issues, the stock has underperformed the Zacks classified Machinery-Electrical industry average over the past year." (5/5/2017)
• 2. Cowen and Company analysts commented, "Automation & CRS trends improved again, & EMR raised the F17 organic sales/." (5/2/2017)
