(UFPI) from neutral to buy, according to streetinsider.com. UFPI closed up +2.99% in trading, Thurs., Sept. 5, including after hours, to end at 38.12. The 52-week range is $32.56 to $45.60; the company’s profit last year was $23.7 million. Davidson says the stock is weak only because of overstated fears about the housing industry rebound, and that UFPI’s exposure to residential construction is only 20 percent.
