All five basket names have maintained local lanes; AGCO and CNH remain lower-conviction routes until margin, dealer inventory, financing, and cash-conversion proof improves. Operating proof is attach rate, usage, renewal, dealer inventory, orders, margin, cash conversion, and finance quality, not product demonstrations.",
