I don't understand why you would be interested in a company with a "virtual monopoly" in this industry. Virtual monopoly means no room for market share gains, and a lot of room to lose market share should other competitors try entry. So the company's fortunes are indistinguhable from those of its end market. Since in this case, the end market is hurting badly, I don't see a value proposition here.
