S&P 500 Industrials stocks: today's ranking and data

The S&P 500 has 76 companies in Industrials today. It accounts for 7.3% of the market value of the index companies. Its median P/E is 27.8, against 23.6 for the index as a whole.

What Industrials is and what drives its earnings

What it includes. Aerospace and defense, industrial, farm and construction machinery, electrical equipment, HVAC and building products, engineering and construction, railroads, airlines, trucking and parcel delivery, industrial distribution, equipment rental, waste management and business services.

What drives its earnings. Investment: companies spending on plants and equipment, governments on infrastructure and defense, utilities on the grid. It is tracked through order backlogs, which lead sales by several quarters. In transport, freight volume and fuel prices rule; in commercial aviation, passenger traffic.

How it behaves. It is cyclical and very mixed: a defense contractor with multi-year contracts and an airline do not react the same way to a slowdown. That is why the sector average says less here than elsewhere, and the table is worth reading company by company.

The classification is the one used by this site's data provider, similar to but not the same as GICS, S&P's standard: this sector roughly matches "Industrials". Counts may therefore differ from other sources.

All 76 stocks in the sector, by today's multi-factor rank

The rank is the order produced by a quantitative model on data as of Sep 18, 2026: the average of four factors (momentum, value, quality and growth) computed from public data, against the 466 index companies that score. It is a calculation, not a recommendation to buy or sell: it knows nothing about anyone's situation, horizon or risk, and the returns of portfolios built with it are simulated. How it is computed: see the methodology.
