2、 reports. Our questions tend to exclude near-term demand questions, as we assume those are asked anyway.Broad topics that we hope to hear more color on: (i) Is Q2 shaping up to be another quarter (it would be the fourth consecutive) of above average seasonality sequential revenue trends (consensus a

(ii) Do we have any clearer picture of the extent of pre-ordering / double-orderingpull-forward ordering underway in the 1H21, as a result of customer/ distributor concerns around supply chain shortages? (iii) Many (but not all) comp

4、anies think Q2 may be the peak of price / cost margin headwinds - is this view still intact, or does the ongoing rise in commodity and freight costs mean the 2H21 could actually yield a bigger headwind? (iv) How are inventory levels at channel partners / customers at present, vs normal seasonal tren

5、ds? (v) What is the pace of the pickup in later-cycle markets such as US Non-residential buildings, Commercial Aero, and O&G?

(viii) Does anyone else except GE, IR (such as CARR, DOV, EMR, ETN, MMM) want to sell assets amidst a market with exub

7、erant bullishness?Who could offer interesting updates / news before Q2 earnings? (i) CARR: Further progress on divestments / simplifying the portfolio / number of JVs; (ii) FTVs Investor meeting should clarify progress in the software and healthcare build-outs; (iii) GE: Are Aviation commercial shop

8、 visits really only trending flat in Q2 q-o-q / for FY21 overall (as guided); (iv) MMM: Any newsflow / court pronouncements on the various major litigation items (earplugs, PFAS, Bair Hugger)? (v) PNRs Investor meeting may yield more detail on efforts to rejuvenate growth via higher investments, and

9、 to improve margins at I&FT; (vi) SWKs Investor meeting should update MT growth expectations, MTDs outlook (is adjusted EPS exc-amort. now more appealing?), and Security turnaround progress.Positioning: (i) Non-residential names (inc. ALLE, CARR, ETN, JCI, NVT, OTIS, TT) have become much more popula

10、r as a long-cycle/late-cycle play into late 21/22; (ii) There remains a strong debate about whether it is too late to be buying Short Cycle Industrial stocks given PMIs (where we lean), or too early to be selling them (PH encapsulates this debate); (iii) Consensus cannot make up its mind whether to

11、worry about anyone with a 2H21 slowdown (per CARR, LII, PNR, VNT), or focus on simply FY numbers. Shorter-term investor positioning appears least favorably disposed towards LII, HON, ITW, ROK, ROP, and most favorably disposed towards CARR, ETN, JCI, NVT, PH.For our views on recently-concluded Q1 ear
