Stumbled across this thread. Here is my 2 cents (Canadian). IMHO, this company is a company that you could lose sleep over. Leave the litigation aside for one moment. The operating fundamentals of this company are:
1) HUGE overheads. They have to keep their furnaces going 7/24. Expensive.
2) Their product is used in homes and other big ticket items. When their is a hic-cough in the market discretionary spending on these items goes down.
3) combine points 1 & 2 and you have a company that can really leverage bad times if they occur.
