Advisors' Opinion:

• [By Jonathan Yates]

  That projection is a result of more motor traffic expected in Asia, in the decades ahead. Three publicly-traded companies that should benefit from that trend are Toyota Motor Corp (NYSE: TM), Cummins Inc (NYSE: CMI), and Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. (NYSE: GT).

• [By Matt Thalman]

  Despite having recently been upgraded by Longbow Research from "neutral" to "buy," shares ofCaterpillar (NYSE: CAT  ) are down 0.35% today. The main reason shares are falling today is the poor earnings report released by Cummins (NYSE: CMI  ) this morning. The company reported that sales dropped 19% in the company's engine and turbine unit. Cummins also blamed the poor results on weak oil, gas, and mining demand -- areas in which Caterpillar also operates.
