WHR is a stable, well run company which has successfully added the Maytag line to its impressive list of brands. Material costs and energy are compressing their profit margins some this year, but margins should rebound by next year. They are raising prices to compensate. North America sales are down with housing starts, but the fast growing sales levels in Asia are compensating for the most part (overall sales are still growing). As the market returns here in North America, the componding effect on growth should be rewarding to investors. PEG is under .7
