Construction company URS. Added to my position 7/14 @$44.16. Today, with stock down at $33.80, I'll take a little more.

p/stated book = .65. Tangible bv is negative though. Company has been profitable every year past ten. Generally low roe (usually under 8%). Diverse construction projects might help cushion some decline if/as govt projects are reduced. Stock price seems to have anticipated some of that.
