PACCAR stock gave back 3.1% today, yet the quarter it just put up looks more like steady execution than a business hitting the brakes. The trucking giant delivered Q2 revenue of about US$7.5b with net income of US$752m, powered by strong truck demand and a record performance in its high margin Parts business.

The market hit Titan America hard. The stock closed down about 9% on the day, even though the headline story was not revenue cracking but margins compressing. Q2 revenue came in at about US$470.6m while net income landed near US$43.3m.
