We base our corporate valuations on commodity research. Our focus has always been on the commodities that drive corporate success or failure in paper and forest products. The commodities move in cycles and can best be understood when analyzed graphically. Anticipating the cyclical changes is the most important part of evaluating the industry and the companies.
