Think of all the weather related damage that has occurred, realize that gypsum board is a controlled supply commodity, understand that the profit margin will only increase as demand increases. USG has enough capacity to handle the increase demand wit...

I've been waiting for USG to go on sale for years.

A little history. Many years ago USG was forced into bankruptcy to protect itself while it dealt with costly asbestos lawsuits. A few years ago, it emerged from bankruptcy a reinvigorated company w...

Yo Warren, you think they'll still have walls in 2036.

I'm betting on it, Johnny.

I think that open architecture is actually quite interesting and should make strides in the future.

Well, whatever you say MR. Killz... I'm pretty sure they made wal...

Warren Buffet did not have to underwrite USG's latest rights offering, but he elected to load up on more shares anyway. For starters, this sends a strong message and this is good enough for me. Add to this the fact that mfg. capacity is still const...

A leader in the buildng materials market. Their major product is sheet rock, and they not only sell the product but distribute it as well. The best thing about this stock IMHO is the fact that Warren Buffet bought up a bunch of shares in the past f...
