Corporate Webpages Paccar Inc.
Paccar Inc. (PCAR) gets its name from the old Pacific Car &
Foundry Corporation, based in Washington State. It switched
from the manufacture of railroad cars as railroads' importance
declined to the more timely manufacture of trucks. Its brands
include the Peterbilt, Kenworth, and European Leyland and DAF names.
Most of Paccar's revenues come from outside the U.S. and its
story like many other American manufacturers consists of plant
closings in the U.S. and establlishment of them elsewhere in
places like Brazil, China, and Mexico, thus exporting thousands
of jobs overseas.
The business of truck-making is extremely cyclical, having ups
and downs with the economy, doing very well in the 1980's,
showing signs of improvement now, but having some very lean
periods in between. Most of Paccar's engines are made by
Cummins Engine, a company that seems to be doing better than
Paccar itself. Chrysler is one of Paccar's top competitors.
Paccar is the second-largest truck manufacturer in the world.
From its Washington State headquarters, it has many plants
located all over the U.S. in places like California and Mississippi.
The company is considered to have strong financials by many
researchers, but it has a very marginal Zenith Index. It is a
very recent quarterly cash flow problem after years of positive
flow and the cyclical nature of erratic earnings growth that
punished this company most in the Zenith Index.
The company is known for having adopted extremely tight poison
pill tactics to prevent a takeover by another company, a
so-called misnomered "shareholder rights" program. Companies
that do this are more worried about retaining current management than
about shareholder well-being. But the company does offer a
moderate dividend. The company has low debt which helps its
financial ratio picture greatly. The company has little or no
financial risk compared to its competitors.
Our overall negative Decision Matrix rating on this stock
appears to be tied to a very negative-looking chart based upon
declining prospects for economic recovery which seems to track
very well the immediate earnings prospects for this company.
Most of Paccar's revenues are coming from overseas. The world
economic picture is beginning to look bleaker.

Zenith uses the "sentiment" score above or below 50 to award a positive or negative point in the Decision Matrix.
Short Interest Ratio |
As the short interest rises as a percentage of average daily share volume (Days to Cover), this is considered a measure of negative sentiment. Similarly, a decrease in that percentage is considered positive sentiment.

The summary below includes a value for `Degree,' which refers on a
scale of 1 to 10 the range of a channel in the period under consi-
deration compared to the total range of price movement. It also looks
for the last closing price to be within the channel, otherwise zeroed.
The `Index' is the `Degree' weighted for volatility. Generally, the
the higher the index, the more suitable is the stock for trading as
a `rolling stock' between channel high and low points.
