I worked there... an absolutely foul, 1980's company filled with mean spirited untalented egotistic managers. A dying company representing America's past. There are so many great, spirited and progressive companies why waste your time on a classic dud.

Sell, sell, a thousand times sell.

has a good dividend and china exposure. i think it is not done going down but it is a good time to start accumulating. I dont think it will go below $32.00. Just average your way in.

PPG will recover nicely in 18 months. Dividends will help in the interim.

Pittsburgh Plate Glass, a company recently profiled by Cramer. If you've heard of them, it's probably because of their best-of-breed automotive metalflake paints (they make that 'flip-flop' paint that changes colors in the sun). But that only makes up 4% of their revenue. They also make something like 15% of the world's eyeglass lenses as well as a variety of diversified industrial products.

Mid cap company with a record of steady dividend increases since 1972, just raised the dividend again in October 2008 in the face of the global slowdown. They don't screw around, with net revenues of $9 per share and profits over $5 per share - payout ratio is around 40%. And the yield right now is 4.6%, making the stock look underpriced.

Buy some shares, put 'em on a DRIP and never sell 'em.

One of the most solid DRIP plays in America. They have paid a dividend for over a hundred years and rasied their dividend for over 30. The effect of the DRIP compounds over time (one's # of shares increase, and more shares buy more shares), and after a couple/few decades the result is (like) a savings account with an outrageous yield. The demand for this company's products will wax and wane, but not go away.
