FRK depends very much on housing industry as it supplies most of its cement for the construction. Housing sector has been on downtrend since and some of the small players were beaten badly. However based on the yardstick of the stocks from the same sector such as Eagle Materials, Inc. (NYSE : EXP) which beats earning recently, FRK might just follow the path.
FRK missed its’ earning for the last quarter, the first one in many quarters. Should FRK beat the earning this quarter with good earning’s data, this stock should gap-up nicely. The downsides are quite limited considering it has consolidated to the lowest of $36 before recover to current level of $43. Furthermore it was reported that home sales rise for the first time in eight months, though partly because of falling prices.
