This Dow Stock Keeps On Surging

The following video is part of our "Motley Fool Conversations" series, in which industrials editor/analyst Brendan Byrnes and editor/analyst Isaac Pino discuss topics across the investing world.

In today's edition, Brendan and Isaac take a look at the Dow's second-hottest company so far in 2012, Caterpillar. The company is up over 20% in just the past month. What does this mean for Caterpillar going forward in 2012, and can its competitors keep up?
