Louisiana-Pacific Corp (LPX)

Today I am recommending a bearish trade on the Louisiana-Pacific Corporation (NYSE:LPX), the North American manufacturer of building materials and products. The large-cap industrial stocks of the Dow Jones had been leading the charge last week, partially due to the new trade agreement between the United States, Mexico and Canada, though the index did fall slightly. I’m also still concerned about the trade situation with China, as that country is mostly likely not going to concede to the U.S., at least not anytime in the near future.
