Started very small position in FLR. News keeps getting bad so maybe it is now priced into the stock. My investment thesis is IF there is an infrastructure bill, FLR s/d get some of that. Stock selling at stated BV.

Fluor backlog cut by $1.2B after Purple Line Rail project exit
Fluor says the lack of resolution on the impacts of third-party lawsuits, delayed right-of-way acquisition and changes to regulations and third-party agreements made the JV's continued participation unsustainable.

Fluor's project backlog will be reduced by ~$1.2B after the termination



Fluor suspends dividend payments
saying it will suspend its dividend as part of its effort to cut costs . . Fluor says it continues to pursue sales of its equipment rental business, P3 assets and excess real estate, although the timing of any deals has slowed due to COVID-19.
Only 10 years ago, Fluor was the leader in their field. The Company is aligned into five principal operating segments: Oil and Gas, Industrial and Infrastructure, Government, Global Services and Power.

Would like to see them exit their unprofitable business segment (like Oil & Gas), downsize and concentrate on their Industrial & Infrastructure. If/when I see divestment of legacy business units and a focus on profitable lines, I will continue to add share.



I now have FLR and STLD in my infrastructure basket. Really need one or two core companies and still looking for those.
