How many companies out there are holding back on their supply orders due to lack of current purchasing power? What will happen in better times when these companies are ready to restock? MSM will be ready for them, and boy will the profits for this comany surge! Stand back, because the recovery countdown may have already started.

I want to buy new shares. I think 30$ is a good price, but i know it signed a new low at 26$... Have I to wait? Or are we in the middle of a market bounce?

During a recession better-run companies should be able to eat up market share as smaller or weaker rivals go under. In what seems to be a very fragmented market sector this shoud be all the more true. Add to that the stimulus package and projected infrastructure program to create jobs and wealth - which everyone wants to see working as soon as possible - and I see a lot of potential ahead for MSM to grow their business.

If they are doing this well with a weak web site and a generally weak national economy, just imagine how well they will do when their web site investments deliver an improved on-line customer experience and the economy turns back up!

These may become trying times for business who use this service, even if busuness is good WW grainger is the company in this business with a large moat as well as a lower P/E right now. Of course management could always have a plan. Its probably not a horrible investment although I do think its a little overpriced and I like Grainger better.
