Turokman, my friend, where do I even begin with this one?

Comaparing USG to MSLP

If you looked at USG's income statement you will notice that there were periods in which it made insane money (when the housing market was good). Then there were quarters it didn't do too well (during the housing market downturn). So, buy construction stocks during the downturn and reap the rewards during the upturn, which has always happened. This is known as an industry "cyclical" play. Not to be confused with a "turnaround" play.

Now, look at MP's income for the last 4 years. A loss every year.
