Long term play. Illinois company that works with metals and plastics. Metals are oversold, will eventually lead the market going forward, since it is one of our last solid manufacturing bases in the U.S.

Usually CAPS is the testing ground for my investment newsletter. I try to find good stocks that will benefit from macro trends.
I doubt this stock would ever make it into my RL portfolio however, but it should be good enough for here.
