Buying Sola (SOL) today.

From their website: "SOLA Optical USA is the largest manufacturer of spectacle lenses in North America, and SOLA International is among the largest in the world...Approximately one in four eyeglass wearers in the U.S. wears a SOLA lens."

Lot of negatives. Earnings have disappeared as sales in N. America (prime market)have languished. LTD has slowly increased as has number of shares outstanding. (Inventories and A/R also have increased somewhat.)

Offsetting these negatives are a stock at its lows; the psr figure is very low (imo) as is the price to book (imo).
There's some insider buying. In the past the company seems to have been technically innovative. If they can focus on the business aspects a little better, they might/maybe/possibly could return to profitability and the stock could/might/perhaps be a double.
