Commentary

Market tone is neutral-to-cautious: Q1 order strength was noted, but consensus targets cluster near the mid-$150s, leaving limited upside from the current anchor [#SERP-3][#SERP-5]. Investor focus will be on order durability and margin delivery as the primary re-rating levers over the next 3–12 months [#SERP-1].
