USG seems very promising. Holding strong earnings even with the liability of asbestos claims. Came out of chapter 11 very strong, leader of sales in us Wall Board.

Anyone holding it I suggest selling at around $39.93 so you don't lose any profit you may have made.

Fed Emails Bash BofA Chief
Excerpts “… Ken Lewis’ claim that they were surprised by the rapid growth of the losses seems somewhat suspect. At a minimum, it calls into question the adequacy of the due diligence process BAC has been doing in preparation for the takeover.” –Dec. 19 email from Timothy Clark, senior advisor in the Fed’s division of banking supervision and regulation, to Warsh, Kohn and others. * * * <>“… the recent decline in BAC’s projected year end 2008 stand alone number appears to be driving as much of the decline in the combined pro forma ratios as the losses at ML, even as they are portraying ><>><>><>><>><>><>><>><>><>><>><>><>><>><>><>><>><>><>><>><>><>><>><>><>><>><>><>><>><>><>><>><>><>><>><><>>< /><>>< />< />< />><><>< />>< /><>< />>><><>< />><>< />><>< />><>< />><>< />><>< />><>< />><>< />><>< />><>< />><>< />>>...
