Buildings need maintenance too, it's not entirely tied to new construction.

I am amazed by how this horrible little stock mocks me with my biggest active CAPS POINT LOSS.

Why isn't BECN a $5 stock yet.... dive you pig dive.

BECN has too much debt, too little demand, falling earnings, rising accounts… More

I think the biggest factor in sales for roofing will be similar to autos for a while - repair what you got. All those "distressed" houses will soon be coming on the market also, and many will need repairs. I almost totally discount the new housing market as a factor for 6-9 months in this stock

BECN has too much debt, too little demand, falling earnings, rising accounts receivable (that must be questionable given the state of the construction industry).

DIVE YOU PIG DIVE!
