Cary, thank you for posting your observations. From here
much depends on individual expectation for cycle length,
12 more months, 18 more months? There WAS flattening last summer - followed by steepening.

It seems everyone knows the cycle will end, but not at what level of orders. The other unknown is the future level of the trough. Discounting of stock price seems to occur earlier now. If the peak price is not reached again and the uptrend in orders continues 12 more months, then peak price has occured about halfway into the uptrend [or 1 1/2 years before an order top].

Donald Wennerstrom has a more optimistic outlook
