Summary:
- Deere & Company (NYSE:DE) fell 4% on Wednesday after the company met Wall Street earnings expectations while falling short on guidance.
- Based on its market cycles, we believe the stock has more risk in the coming months.

The company reported earnings per share of $2.14 and total revenue of $8.7 billion, compared to analyst estimates of $2.14 and $8.5 billion. Looking forward, management said that for 2020 it expects to earn $9.20 per share, compared to the $11.01 consensus.
CEO John May said that, “Lingering trade tensions coupled with a year of difficult growing and harvesting conditions have caused many farmers to become cautious about making major investments in new equipment.”
