Saturated market, low dividend, high P/E relative to market (even with realistically non-zero earnings estimates), bad trend on revenues and earnings, heavily dependent on household and residential sector...

In short, this stock is uncompetitive compared to the market of all available places to put your money. It doesn't matter if they are a leader in their sector.
