re. a catalyst for manufactured housing stocks: well, these aren't exactly under-followed little microcap thingies. I would worry about catalysts for those (I've got a couple of tiny value stocks that might sit Lord-knows how long before anybody else discovers them. That's where you've got to worry about a catalyst.) The largest stock in this sector, CHB, has a market cap of $1 B despite getting pounded down, and 9 analysts give it estimates. When you've got that much analyst coverage, you can expect that eventually a good business will get the attention it deserves. If you insist on getting a good return in the next quarter, however, you might be disappointed.
