Tom Sego, founder and CEO of BlastWave, discussed his background in chemical engineering and his journey through various industries, including roles at Caterpillar, Eli Lilly, Emerson Electric, Alta Vista, and Apple. He explained that BlastWave was founded to combine Apple’s ease of use with cybersecurity, focusing on protecting critical infrastructure as it becomes increasingly digitized. Tom emphasized that human error is a significant security risk, citing an example from the San Jacinto Water District. This Follower Friday podcast is sponsored by UTSI International. Tom's podcast includes: Critical infrastructure sectors (like oil and gas, transportation, and manufacturing) face higher cyber risks than traditional IT systems due to the severe consequences of attacks and the challenge of securing legacy devices. Integrating old and new technologies is achieved by using a translation mechanism that enables secure communication between legacy systems and modern infrastructure. Artificial intelligence (AI) has a dual impact: it can enhance attackers' ability to automate cyberattacks, but it also offers opportunities to improve security, such as by eliminating vulnerabilities like passwords. Technology solutions are essential for reducing the human burden in security, especially for defending against phishing and reconnaissance attacks. Eliminating attack vectors (e.g., usernames and passwords) can significantly reduce security risks, regardless of how effective or frequent attacks become. Focusing on the safety of critical infrastructure allows people to prioritize what matters most in life, such as family, relationships, and health.

Will artificial intelligence reshape the power grid, or will the inertia and complexity of today's infrastructure slow progress—or even redefine how large language models, chips, and datacenters are designed and located?  To meet the exponential rise in energy demand, parts of the industry have taken shortcuts—rapidly adding behind-the-meter capacity through open-cycle gas turbines - OCGT (such as the Titan 350 from Caterpillar) with little regard for environmental regulations. The mantra seems to be speed at any cost.  Is the AI boom we are witnessing justified—or sustainable? From a technological standpoint, certainly yes: AI capability is roughly doubling every seven months. But from a financial perspective, it is harder to defend—given the sky-high valuations, credit fuelled growth and mounting losses at many of the sector's biggest players.  The bigger question is what all this means for the energy system itself. How will AI be powered? What will it do to the cost of energy and the shape of our infrastructure? Will it accelerate—or hinder—the energy transition?  Hope is powerful—but it can also be blind. Between AI's explosive growth and the traditional energy system's entrenched realities, who will bear the cost?  These are the questions Laurent and Gerard pose to Andrew Perry, Director of the Energy Transition and Environment business unit at Faculty.ai, where he leads AI-driven innovation in the energy sector.   We have a heated debate, trying to honestly lay out the dilemmas in front of the industry. More insights in this excellent research by the FThttps://ig.ft.com/ai-power/Today's show is supported by the BMW Foundation Herbert Quandt. The BMW Foundation unites leaders from diverse sectors to develop solutions that foster an innovative economy and a future-proof society. A key focus is "Energy Transition & Climate Change," where the Foundation drives "International collaboration to accelerate the energy transition." With rising energy demands from AI and data centers, new partnerships, effective collaboration, and the exchange of science-based solutions and strategies are essential. That's why the BMW Foundation supports this podcast and brings these discussions to global stages by hosting the Energy Security Hub at the Munich Security Conference 2026, streaming live February 12–14.

The oil and gas industry is facing an unprecedented challenge: the electrical grid cannot keep pace with its soaring power demands. As drilling operations expand and electrification accelerates, grid capacity in key regions like the Permian Basin is being stretched to its limits. This imbalance threatens production timelines, operational reliability, and long-term growth. In this episode, we sit down with Caterpillar to explore why power demand is outstripping supply, the implications for oil and gas companies, and the strategies being deployed to bridge the gap. From leveraging natural gas for on-site generation to navigating competition with other industries, we'll uncover practical solutions and future outlooks. Join us as we discuss how companies can secure resilient power infrastructure and maintain momentum in an increasingly energy-constrained environment.To watch the video, click here. 

At the heart of The Prophets' vision are “The 24 Essential Supply Chain Processes.” What are they? Find out, and see the future yourself. Click here This episode takes a break from our usual detailed discussions to reflect on the conversations that shaped the year for the Auto Supply Chain Prophets podcast. Jan Griffiths, joined by co-hosts Jim Liegghio and Terry Onica, looks at why specific episodes stuck with them and what those moments reveal about where the automotive supply chain is heading.Live podcasting quickly rises to the top, especially the Midwest User Group episodes. Hearing customers talk openly about what they deal with every day brought everything back to reality. The hosts agree that these conversations stood out because they were raw, unscripted, and focused on real-life challenges rather than polished talking points.From there, the focus shifts to the next generation of supply chain leaders. Episodes recorded at the GM Wayne State Case Competition and other student-focused events captured something rare: genuine excitement about supply chain careers. Hearing students wrestle with real GM case studies and receive direct feedback from senior leaders reinforced why investing time in education and mentorship matters.Jim then reflects on episodes centered on leadership under pressure, including Kyle Price from Caterpillar and Darrin Lucas from Nissan. Both talked about disruption as something you plan for, not something that throws you off balance. Tariffs, volatility, aftersales pressure, none of it was treated as a crisis. The focus remained on preparation, trusting teams, and staying level-headed. The takeaway was simple but powerful. The way leaders respond sets the tone for everyone else.For Jan, Kate Vitasek's work on collaborative agreements stood out because it moved beyond talk and into how collaboration actually works. But with structure, accountability, and measurable business impact.Ted Mabley's data-driven discussion on RFQs exposed how outdated processes still slow the industry down and why technology only works when people are willing to rethink habits and silos.The episode closes with a grounded reminder: AI, standards, and platforms matter, but they are not shortcuts. Progress depends on people, relationships, and the willingness to unlearn old ways of working. With that perspective, the hosts wrap up 2025 grateful for the conversations, the community, and the momentum heading into the year ahead.Featured on this episode: Name: Terry OnicaTitle: Director, Automotive at QADAbout: For two decades, Terry has been the automotive vertical director of this provider of manufacturing Enterprise Resource Planning software and supply chain solutions.

In this episode of the In Basin Observations Podcast (recorded live at the Permian Basin Barbecue Cookoff) Bill sits down with Caterpillar's Collin Clark and Chris Berry. They highlight CAT's new gas mechanical system, which nearly doubles pumping horsepower versus legacy diesel units while lowering fuel costs and emissions and running on both CNG and field gas. The discussion also covers the growing grid “power gap” from data center demand and how Caterpillar's natural gas engines, turbines, and energy storage can be deployed behind the meter, backed by CAT's ongoing investments in manufacturing capacity and dealer service support.

This Week on Autonomy Markets, Grayson Brulte and Walter Piecyk discuss Rivian's bold vertical integration bet as the EV maker announced plans to build their own chips and lidar sensors, effectively moving away from NVIDIA.Is the introduction of “Autonomy+”, a new software subscription priced to undercut competitors a risky distraction or a necessary move as the company works toward profitability? As Rivian looks inward, Wayve signed a major win, signing a definitive agreement to scale with Nissan in North America and Japan beginning in 2027.Then there is Uber. Who does Uber want to be when autonomy grows up, and who will their partners ultimately be and what those relationships will look like in the long term? Currently, Uber's autonomy narrative faces challenges, as the company appears to be playing defense while getting front-run by partners Waymo in the U.S. and Momenta in Abu Dhabi. Closing out the show, Grayson and Walt discuss the growing world of international autonomy on the weekly Foreign Autonomy Desk segment, covering updates from Bolt, Stellantis, and Caterpillar.Episode Chapters0:00 Rivian's Autonomy Ambitions 13:11 Licensing Autonomous Driving Stacks17:29 Wayve's Approach to Autonomy 21:07 Tesla's Safety Attendant Out in Austin Plans23:35 Waymo's Blitz Scaling 27:37 Waymo's Growing OOH Ad Business 32:32 Uber's Autonomy Narrative 37:57 Serve Robotics 2,000 Robot Delivery Milestone39:30 Tensor Auto / Zero Partnership 42:13 Aurora's Permian Basin Expansion 44:47 Foreign Autonomy Desk 52:16 Next Week Recorded on Friday, December 12, 2025--------About The Road to AutonomyThe Road to Autonomy provides market intelligence and strategic advisory services to institutional investors and companies, delivering insights needed to stay ahead of emerging trends in the autonomy economy™.

Oblique Strategies is not something I have ever heard of and was interested to see what it is. Having had a fairly superficial look, I am not sure if I have missed very much. I came across an alphabetical list of quotes and selected a couple of contiguous ones more or less at random: 'Imagine the music as a moving chain or caterpillar' and 'Imagine the music as a set of disconnected events'. The resulting track is an electronic composition which started with a sequence of sounds created using Pure Data, then modifying and expanding them by the use of selected filters and additions.

Steven Delperdang of Google Cloud talks about trust; evolution of visibility; & and the big opportunities for logistics providers taking an AI-first approach. IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:   [03.08] After years spent at Caterpillar and Penske, how Steven is now using the 'One Google' approach to run Google's own internal supply chain and solve the legacy pain points he faced in his past roles, and exactly what's so transformative about this approach. "In my previous roles, many of the frustrations stemmed from fragmented systems and data siloes. You have a warehouse management system here, a transportation management system there, various auxiliary 1P and 3P systems – and often a lot of manual effort to stitch it all together." "Siloes are a major barrier, and consolidating data is critical. Logistics is simply a chain of interconnected events… so without that centralized view, you're only seeing a piece of the puzzle." "It's this centralized access that means we can perform more sophisticated analysis and our AI tools can draw on a much richer data set." [07.00] Why trust is such a big hurdle for providers who are already drowning in data, and the areas Google Cloud focus on to build that trust. [10.44] The evolution of visibility, why consolidating disparate data is so critical, and how Google is tackling disparate data problems to achieve true centralized access. "Everybody has basic visibility now, but that leap from dots on a map to true actionable insights is crucial. Basic visibility tells us what's happening. Our target for visibility tells you why it's happening, what's likely to happen next, and what you should do about it." [13.33] How Steven's experience of using Google Cloud to power Google's own global supply chain helps him strategize, and the business outcomes Google has achieved that other organizations can replicate. [16.12] The practical, day-to-day logistics problems Steven's team is currently solving with AI. "AI can help us cut through the noise." [21.21] How integrating Gemini AI has changed Steven's tools, and why he's seeing faster, better quality insights. [23.13] How the day-to-day work of Google Cloud's own analysts and developers has shifted with the addition of new AI capabilities. "For us, it's been a really significant shift up the value chain. Three years ago, a large proportion of my teams time was consumed by manual data extraction, cleansing, building bespoke reports for leaders. Today, we have less firefighting and the team can focus on more strategic work, more complex and impactful problems." [26.40] How Google is making high-powered AI tools usable for everyday logistics operators. [29.57] How Steven's past award-winning work at Caterpillar would have been different if he had had the Google Cloud tools that exist today. [32.47] From hyper-personalized insights to AI-driven collaboration, the biggest untapped opportunity for logistics providers ready to embrace an AI-first approach.   RESOURCES AND LINKS MENTIONED:   Head over to Google Cloud's website now to find out more and discover how they could help you too.

Don Kaufman is a fan of Caterpillar's (CAT) "spectacular chart" as the stock continues a 60% 2025 rally. However, he shares bearish takes on Intel (INTC) and Tesla (TSLA) due to the former stock's "too far, too fast" run and the latter's technical set-up. Don offers example options trades for the Big 3 while Rick Ducat dives into key levels to watch in the charts. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

"CAT" es sinónimo de maquinaria pesada. Su logo amarillo es uno de los más reconocidos del planeta. Pero esta es también la marca que ves en botas, ropa y hasta teléfonos. La historia de este gigante comienza con una rivalidad encarnizada en el barro de California. A finales del siglo XIX, dos inventores, Benjamin Holt y Daniel Best, competían por dominar el mercado de la maquinaria agrícola. Holt apostaba por la máquina de vapor, pero sus monstruos de 20 toneladas se hundían en el fértil y pantanoso suelo de California. En su desesperación, llegó a construir un tractor con ruedas de 14 metros de ancho. Seguía hundiéndose. La solución llegó en 1904. Holt observó a granjeros poniendo tablones de madera en el barro para avanzar. Inspirado, diseñó un sistema de "pista continua": una cadena de listones de madera. La máquina, por fin, avanzó sobre el lodo. Un fotógrafo de la compañía, al ver el movimiento ondulante, comentó: "se arrastra como una oruga" (crawls like a caterpillar). Holt escuchó la palabra mágica y en 1910 registró la marca "Caterpillar". Pocos años después, esta invención agrícola daría el salto al campo de batalla. En la Primera Guerra Mundial, los ejércitos en Flandes se enfrentaban al mismo problema que Holt: el barro. Un oficial británico, el coronel Ernest Swinton, recordó haber visto un tractor Holt y el ejército británico los importó para mover su artillería pesada. Viendo cómo esas máquinas cruzaban el fango, Swinton tuvo una segunda idea: "¿Y si le ponemos blindaje y armas?". Aunque CAT no construyó el primer tanque, su tractor de orugas fue la inspiración conceptual directa para el Mark I británico. La guerra fue un gran negocio, pero la paz casi los arruina. El mercado se inundó de tractores militares sobrantes. Tanto Holt como su rival, C. L. Best, estaban al borde de la quiebra y endeudados con los mismos bancos. En 1925, los banqueros forzaron un "matrimonio de conveniencia": las dos compañías se fusionaron para crear la Caterpillar Tractor Co. Holt aportó el nombre "Caterpillar"; Best, diseños más modernos. Uno de los aspectos más icónicos de la marca, su color "Amarillo Caterpillar", no llegó hasta 1931. Los primeros tractores eran grises, pintados con pintura militar barata. El amarillo se eligió por una razón pura de seguridad: hacer las máquinas más visibles en las obras al amanecer y al atardecer. La nueva empresa estaba lista para construir el mundo moderno. Las máquinas CAT excavaron la Presa Hoover, los cimientos del Golden Gate y construyeron el sistema de autopistas de EE. UU. Fue aquí donde perfeccionaron el "bulldozer". En la Segunda Guerra Mundial, el bulldozer Caterpillar D8 se convirtió en un arma estratégica. Los "Seabees" (Batallones de Construcción de la Marina) los usaban para desembarcar en las playas del Pacífico y construir pistas de aterrizaje en plena jungla, a veces bajo fuego enemigo. Hoy, Caterpillar es un coloso diversificado. Fabrica los motores diésel que mueven barcos y locomotoras, y camiones mineros del tamaño de una casa. Y su línea de ropa y teléfonos no es casualidad: están pensados para sus clientes. Los teléfonos CAT son indestructibles, diseñados para el bolsillo de un trabajador de la construcción que pasa el día entre el polvo, el agua y el barro.

December's here, and it's time for the big push through to 2026 and opportunity a new year always brings a business owner to set goals, to lay plans and start acting on them. Yet as you'll hear in this edition of Overdrive Radio, it's also true that in so many ways the time for all of that is now, for any small trucking business owner, at any given moment. Like a football coach responding to what the opposing team throws at his own, a quarterback changing the play at the line, successful owner-operators are nothing if not masters of the art of getting prepped for the unforeseen. It's an impossible ask of anyone in some ways, but also a reality you'll hear through today's talk with four Overdrive Trucker of the Year contenders for this year's title. None less so than owner-operator John Treadway, our September Trucker of the Month. He delivered the shocking news of his pristine 1998 Peterbilt 379's October catastrophic engine failure. How might one prepare for that? Owner Treadway's long experience taught him, like others featured in this roundtable talk, the importance of the back-up plan, and not only could he afford what will ultimately be a reman Caterpillar crate engine powering the unit. The original Cat in the 1998 379 he's hopeful to rebuild with some close associates, furthermore, to in future repower his back-up power unit. That backup, a 2006 379, with plenty miles on the odometer itself, is yet another element of Treadways effective prep for the October catastrophe. It's enable him to continue serving his primary and other customers as Caterpillar works through issues with the engine replacement. His isn't the only update you'll get from owners in this podcast, where host and Overdrive Chief Editor Todd Dills put two principal questions to four owners: 1. How's business looking as we head into 2026, and have any goals set early in year 2025 been brought to fruition? 2. Reflecting on your own history trucking, what's the single best piece of advice you might deliver to new and/or aspiring owner-operators to help on the long road to success? Featured, along with Indiana-headquartered Treadway: **John Penn, our most-recent Trucker of the Month in October, hauling LTL furniture principally: https://overdriveonline.com/15770500 **Similarly LTL-focused fresh meat reefer hauler Jason Shelly, based in Pennsylvania: https://overdriveonline.com/15753418 **And two-truck dump fleet owner (with a third truck in more OTR work) Hunter Hubbard: https://overdriveonline.com/15741276 Overdrive's Trucker of the Year competition is sponsored for 2025 by Bostrom Seating -- there's a new seat on the line for the contenders. Consider this roundtable the "Exit interviews" with each ahead of announcements late this month of finalists, after the judging round. Stay tuned in the coming weeks for more featured contenders.

In this pre-Thanksgiving special, Brock and Dave kick things off with lighthearted banter about the trials of coaching youth basketball and the realities of sports parenting . The conversation soon pivots to a deep dive into the history of American labor. Dave recounts his father's experience during the post-war industrial boom—specifically how Caterpillar once hired 7,000 people in a single week—and contrasts that era with the difficulties of today's automated hiring landscape .A central theme of the episode is the preservation of "Tribal Knowledge," the essential, unwritten skills passed down by veteran workers . The hosts illustrate the value of this knowledge with a story about how Toyota utilized Ford's own abandoned quality manual to revolutionize manufacturing . They apply these lessons to the drilling industry, critiquing the "Johnny" method of unstructured apprenticeship and advocating for a blend of classroom theory and field experience .On the technical front, Dave troubleshoots a client's slow penetration rates, explaining why switching from roller cone to drag bits and using proper fluids is essential . Finally, the duo discusses the massive scaling required for the upcoming geothermal boom, warning new investors that deep pockets cannot bypass the laws of physics or the need for experienced drillers . The episode concludes with a special guest appearance by Brock's 7-year-old son, Bo .

Chicago residents are getting absolutely destroyed by property tax hikes—some neighborhoods seeing increases of 130% or more—and they're shocked? Really? This is what happens when you vote for "progressive revenue" politicians like Brandon Johnson who chase away every major business with their anti-corporate agenda. Now that Caterpillar and countless other companies have fled to Texas and Florida, guess who's left holding the bag? That's right, the homeowners.We break down how Chicago's war on business created a $134 million commercial property tax shortfall that residents are now forced to cover. Meanwhile, Johnson doubles down with even MORE business taxes—a $20 per employee "head tax," yacht taxes, and social media user fees. Is anyone surprised this progressive playbook is backfiring spectacularly?When will voters connect the dots between their ballot choices and their skyrocketing tax bills? How many more businesses need to pack up and leave before Chicago wakes up? The wheels are coming off in real time, and we're watching every painful detail unfold.

Meanwhile, Johnson doubles down with even MORE business taxes—a $20 per employee "head tax," yacht taxes, and social media user fees. Is anyone surprised this progressive playbook is backfiring spectacularly?When will voters connect the dots between their ballot choices and their skyrocketing tax bills? How many more businesses need to pack up and leave before Chicago wakes up? The wheels are coming off in real time, and we're watching every painful detail unfold.

Wes Stowers grew up in Chattanooga Tennessee and though relatives and friends developed a desire to fly at an early age. USAFA was the goal and aside from typical cadet shenanigans he got through without much trouble. Upon graduation Wes headed off to UPT at Craig and actually finished there as the base was closing. After an IP tour at Vance he got assigned to Torrejon and F-4s which led to several other assignments in Europe where he and his family grew to where they had school age kids. Then he was faced with the challenge of either taking stateside assignments and continuing an active career or returning home to Tennessee and helping his family with their Caterpillar dealership in East Tennessee. Wes returned home and continued to fly for the USAF Reserves as he climbed up the ranks at the dealership eventually becoming Chairman and CEO. Wes still flies his P-51 “Ain't Misbehavin” at Commemorative Air Force shows and sits on the USAFA Board of Directors.

If you're a company operating globally, foreign exchange (FX) risk is a significant threat that can instantly erode profits and derail strategic forecasts. In this episode of Corporate Finance Explained on Finpod, we unpack how corporate treasury teams manage this constant volatility, moving beyond simple definitions to explore the strategic calculus of hedging.We examine three dimensions of FX risk and how a structured hedging toolkit, utilizing forwards, options, and natural hedges, is applied by global firms such as Unilever and Caterpillar to ensure financial stability.The Three Dimensions of FX RiskFinance professionals categorize FX risk into three types, each requiring a different management response:Transaction Risk: The most common risk, tied to immediate cash flows. The currency rate changes between invoicing and receiving payment (e.g., selling in Euros, collecting fewer Dollars later).Translation Risk: A non-cash risk that arises when a parent company consolidates foreign subsidiary financial statements, affecting the reported value of assets/liabilities on the balance sheet.Economic Risk: The long-term structural impact on a company's fundamental competitiveness (e.g., manufacturing costs becoming structurally higher due to a sustained currency strengthening).The Corporate Hedging ToolkitTreasury teams use a combination of financial derivatives and operational strategies to manage these exposures:Forward Contract: Locks in an exchange rate for a future date, providing certainty. Trade-Off: Inflexibility; you miss out on any favorable rate movements.FX Option: Gives the right (not the obligation) to transact at a strike price. Trade-Off: Costly Premium paid upfront for the flexibility.Currency Swap: Exchanging principal and/or interest payments over a set period. Trade-Off: Complexity and long duration.Natural Hedge: Operational strategy to match inflows and outflows in the same currency. Requires C-suite level strategic change (e.g., local sourcing) but avoids derivative costs.Strategic Insights and Lessons Learned:Discipline is Crucial: The cautionary tale of Volkswagen's billion-euro FX losses highlights the danger of crossing the line from risk protection into speculation.Mastering the Policy: Companies like Unilever and Caterpillar use a disciplined, integrated strategy: focusing on natural hedges where possible, and using layered financial hedging (e.g., simple forwards for 6-12 months out) for stability, not profit.The Hedging Framework: Finance teams do not hedge 100% of exposure. The decision to hedge is based on a three-factor funnel: Materiality (is the exposure big enough to matter?), Predictability (how certain is the cash flow?), and Correlation (do existing natural hedges offset the risk?).Constant Currency Disclosure: FP&A teams provide constant currency results to investors, stripping out FX noise to ensure the market understands the core operational health of the business.

Full audio of the Supreme Court oral argument in Hain Celestial Group v. Palmquist (No. 24-724), argued November 4, 2025. In this case, the Justices examine whether a federal appellate court must vacate a district court's final judgment when it later concludes the case was improperly removed because a non-diverse defendant was wrongly dismissed at the outset—pitting strict jurisdictional rules against the need for finality in complex product-liability litigation. Hear counsel and the Court test the limits of Caterpillar v. Lewis, diversity jurisdiction, and what happens when federal courts try to fix their mistakes after the fact.

Kevin Green kicks off the trading day with his eyes overseas. He's watching developments with China ahead of Pres. Trump and Pres. Xi's highly-anticipated meeting, with particular attention to the soybean trade. KG notes positive commentary around a trade deal with South Korea. Domestically, the Fed's decision to cut rates by 25bps is largely anticipated, but KG says investors should pay attention to quantitative tightening (QT) measures by the central bank. He says if the Fed changes course on QT it could help push mortgage rates down, which could help not only homebuyers but also homebuilders. On the earnings front, KG looks at Boeing's (BA) "stabilizing report" and Caterpillar's (CAT) revenue growth thanks in part to the buildout in A.I. data centers. For today's session, he's looking at S&P 500 (SPX) upside to $6960, with downside to $6850. KG adds that he wouldn't be surprised if $7000 gets tested if there's any QT announcement from the Fed.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

In his book Bringing Up Boys, Dr. James Dobson compares parents of sons to a bug called a processionary caterpillar.  A scientist once tested these caterpillars by making them walk in a circle, with a food source in the middle of their circle. The caterpillars just kept following each other, instead of stopping to eat, and eventually died of starvation, right next to a food source. Dr. Dobson says parents of sons often follow other parents in the same way. They put their son in lots of activities, trying to help him keep up with his peers. But in reality, most of the time, what boys really need is to stop, take a rest, and connect with the source of true life– our Creator God. For more ideas on raising boys to become godly men, visit Trail Life USA or RaisingGodlyBoys.com.

In commodities, copper reached a record high due to supply shortages, and oil prices rose following a sharp decline in US stockpiles.
