The following video is part of our "Motley Fool Conversations" series, in which, Brendan Byrnes, industrials editor, and analyst and Austin Smith, consumer-goods editor and analyst, discuss topics around the investing world.

In today's edition, Brendan and Austin discuss a remarkably resilient sector -- machinery. Many companies in this sector have been putting up remarkable growth numbers despite the cyclicality of the industry and an uncertain macro economy. Which company is the latest to continue this trend?
