MasTec: Superior Adds Another Growth Engine As Earnings Accelerate

The accelerating buildout of fiber networks, data-center connectivity and other digital infrastructure is creating a multiyear opportunity for contractors with the scale and expertise to execute complex projects. Dycom Industries DY is heavily exposed to communications infrastructure, particularly fiber-to-the-home, long-haul and middle-mile fiber, while MasTec MTZ operates a broader infrastructure platform spanning communications, power delivery, clean energy, pipelines and mission-critical construction.

MTZ is building an end-to-end infrastructure platform, expanding electrical capabilities to capture more mission-critical and data center spending.
