We are seeing probably the worst quarter that we are going to see from Honeywell, said Howard Rubel, aerospace and defense analyst at Jeffries & Co.

Honeywell [HON  Loading...      ()   ] reported a quarterly profit in line with consensus expectations, saying it was anticipating continued tough economic times. The diversified technology and manufacturing company  also said in a statement that conditions for it remain challenging.

“You’re going to see grudging improvement, but there will be improvement,” Rubel told CNBC.

“Currency does make a difference…and emerging markets continue to show resiliency—they didn’t have the same kind of housing problem that we [in the U.S.] brought upon ourselves.”

Rubel said the company’s stock will be the first to turn as people move back into buildings.

“They will need to refurbish things and Honeywell does a lot of products that do wear out,” he said.

Disclosure:

Rubel does not own shares of Honeywell.
