About: Founded in 1911 by Joseph Eaton, the eponymous company began by selling truck axles in New Jersey. Eaton has since become an industrial powerhouse largely through acquisitions in various end markets. Eaton's portfolio can broadly be divided into two parts: its electrical and industrial businesses. Its electrical portfolio (representing around 70% of company revenue) sells components within data centers, utilities, and commercial and residential buildings, while its industrial business (30% of revenue) sells components within commercial and passenger vehicles and aircraft. Eaton receives favorable tax treatment as a domiciliary of Ireland, but it generates over half of its revenue within the US.

Eaton: Data Center Boom Shows No Signs Of Stopping
Eaton's strong performance is driven by booming data center and AI infrastructure demand, offsetting weakness in auto and residential segments. Q2 results exceeded expectations, with 10% organic revenue growth and margin expansion, but the stock's valuation now looks stretched. AI capex is a transformative tailwind for Eaton, making it a prime beneficiary regardless of which tech giant leads the AI race.

Is Eaton Stock a Buy Now?
I've owned Eaton (ETN 0.74%) since late 2015. It was one of the first stocks I bought after I had a bit of an existential crisis around the way I invested in dividend stocks (I got significantly more conservative, in case you were wondering).
