Caterpillar is moving its headquarters to Chicago and will not build a new complex in its current Peoria, Illinois.

The move comes as the company faces a weak equipment market cutting into its bottom line.

Last week, Caterpillar reported a wider fourth-quarter loss on charges and higher restructuring costs.

It has been cutting jobs and manufacturing sites over the past several years.
