What Is Illinois Tool Works?

The cheerful contrarian.

Illinois Tool Works is the industrial company most people have never noticed and almost certainly own something made by: welding gear, car fasteners, commercial kitchen equipment, construction fixings, all run through a famously decentralised 80/20 operating model refined over a century since its 1912 founding outside Chicago. On the CFGI index its crowd has the same character as the business, unglamorous, disciplined and cheerfully out of step with fashion.

The CFGI read: ITW's crowd sat in Extreme Greed from 3 to 6 February 2026, peaking at 84 out of 100 on 6 February at $293.57. In the middle of that run came 5 February, the worst day of collective Extreme Fear we have measured for stocks, 34 of 246 names in the zone at once. While the market capitulated, this crowd was printing its highs. That is not luck; it is temperament.

Illinois Tool Works Fear and Greed Index History

Q3 2026 breakdown. The table below updates daily.

Flip it round and the pattern holds. ITW's own floor, 17 out of 100 on 10 October 2025 at $244.93, came during a three-session Extreme Fear streak when 139 of the 247 stocks scored that day were in Fear or worse; its worst moments were borrowed from the market, its best were entirely its own. In between, the crowd kept to the middle, 120 of 273 days in Neutral, an average of 49 out of 100, and a mid-table 85th by fearfulness of average.

The sharpest moves bracketed an autumn wobble and a spring recovery, a 33-point drop on 24 October 2025 from 60 to 27, then a 29-point jump on 8 April 2026 from 35 to 64, with a 13-session run in Greed or better from 29 January to 17 February 2026 as the reward in between. The price backed the steadiness, rising 15.6% from $244.20 to $282.20 with a high of $299.60 on 13 February 2026, and the window closed at 70, in Greed. Of the industrial crowds the Fear and Greed Index follows, this is one unusually comfortable being greedy alone.
