Analysts at MKM Partners think Ingersoll-Rand (NYSE: IR) guidance shows progress with the company's long term turnaround story. In their view, the turnaround will be aided by a recovery in commercial construction.

"We believe valuation will continue to expand over time as investors view IR as having best-in-class earnings leverage in a commercial recovery, conservative guidance that could ultimate drive beats and raises through the year and a developing track record of delivering on margin expansion goals," said analyst Joshua Pokrzywinski.
