Sterling Infrastructure (STRL) – $3B market cap; $35M ADV: We added Sterling Infrastructure to the U.S. Focus List as the stock broke out of a stage-three consolidation base. Sterling provides construction and site
development services for data centers, warehouse operators, public infrastructure projects, and homebuilders in the U.S. It benefits from the rising data center, electric battery, and semiconductor plants built out in the U.S. on the
back of onshore manufacturing trends. Shift toward high-margin commercial work should aid margin expansion. The recent drop in mortgage rates has caused housing starts in the U.S. to reach a record high of six months, which
should support demand for its building solutions. Consensus expects revenue to grow at a 12% CAGR and EPS to grow at a 21% CAGR over FY22–24
