<That WY share price sure has dropped since we were discussing it. Have you been hold it all the way down? What are your go-forward thoughts about WY? Unfortunately yes, I'm still holding WY as probably one of the worst poorly timed trades I've made in a while. Unfortunately I didn't become aware aware that the ECRI was strongly calling for a global slowdown even before Japan and Europe and the debt ceiling fiasco and WY, like the GM convertible bond I bought in that conservative portfolio I'm handling are not what you want to own in a a sharp slowdown. I think housing is at or near a bottom and if we avoid recession WY shouldn't fall much more but I think the concern of recession needs to be gone and we get to at least 2% growth and very cyclical stocks like WY and a GM should do better. I think WY will certainly recover some day as it's a solid company that now pays a good dividend and is dirt cheap but the timing depends on the economy and housing improving. I still think there's a small chance it could get taken over by private equity or otherwise with it being so cheap.
