re. NWL. I spotted it on the new lows list. I'm wondering if Chinese competition exists and is significant enough that it might cause investors to permanently value NWL at these lower levels. Something's not right with NWL: sales have increased slowly but as you report, earnings growth seems to have been stymied. Dividend seems high in relation to earnings. And that debt/eq. level is relatively high too. I was negative on NWL the last time it was discussed here, and I was wrong. Stock was about similar price, moved below 20 and commenced to move up. For me now, I'll wait on NWL and see how it might look if the stock comes down to those lows again (19-20+). jmo, wrong tho' I might be again.

there was an analyst on kudlow and cramer two weeks ago.. not in favor of nwl but liked tup .. says everyone worried about their ability to pay dividend.. He states they have enough properties to pay out dividend for next five years.. recommended buying tup for dividend and turnaround.. value play... that's all I remember about it. ps I mentioned tup report to a friend who does a lot of grocery shopping.. She says why would anyone buy tupperware with the glad throw away plastics... Then I thought this woman is in 60's and my daughter comes in with throw away plastic containers and she has tons of tupperware or rubbermaid stuff... How come you buy throw away.. It's much easier and so cheap... as I wash the throw away to use for another time. g
