Buying WLM this am.

Cigar butt(?): Always lousy ROE. And just such a fun and glam. business being a manufacturer of polyethylene terephthalate packaging resins.

I'll characterize WLM as a revision-to-mean play. Stock's near its five year lows, and if the business is cyclical - as it has been (but may not be now) - then I'd expect stock to be performing closer to its historical p/sales numbers. That would see the stock ($9+ now) somewhat closer to its stated book value ($13.65). I'm guessing maybe some point in the next 18 mo. or so.
