AMETEK posts record quarter and raises full year guidance

AMETEK reported record third quarter sales of 2.22 billion dollars, up 17 percent, with adjusted earnings of 2.21 dollars per diluted share, and raised its full year earnings guidance.

Why it matters: AMETEK is a broad read on industrial and electronic instruments demand, and a guidance raise driven by orders growth and a completed acquisition says that demand is broadening, not narrowing.
