" Supplies and Engineered Solutions." is an insufficient description. They make tools, hydraulic stuff, terminals, transformers, LEDs, monitors - all kinds of stuff that is needed. That's why retail is so much harder - you don't need to buy that shirt at Gap, but the things sold by a company like this are unsexy but necessary. They do have alot of debt. But ROE looks good, lots of insitutional investment...moderate shorting...I think its an okay pick long term.
