Gtr pick, looks beaten down and very cheap at almost 52-week low. This is also a 4 star S&P pick with a 1 year target of $20.

Currently has a P/E of 5. TPX hasn't traded this low EVER since its IPO in late 2003.

While consumers may continue to get walloped for the next while, and I can't speak to the company's management at all, this stock is undervalued. Long term debt as a percentage of capitalization has been rising (a mega 88%) but from 2006 to 2007, Return on Equity more than DOUBLED from 50% to over 100%.

Definitely worth putting on a watch list, as it might be even further discounted over the coming months. Unless management's REALLY horrible or we really are entering Great Depression part deux, this should be a long-term outperformer.
