Investopedia: Dover May Be Bottoming, But The Street's Already Thinking Recovery

Dover (NYSE:DOV) is one of those industrial conglomerates that is so diversified, it's not hard to feel a little sympathy for the analysts that cover the stock. From energy to smartphones to commercial refrigerators and gas pumps, covers the gamut of end-market exposures.

To that end, it doesn't say anything especially great about the economy that first quarter results were pretty weak, though the book-to-bill and management's optimism about a second-half recovery are encouraging. When it comes to the stock, however, it's a little hard for me to believe that the Street hasn't already skipped ahead a few pages and priced this stock for a recovery.
