Wow...long eh?

I caught the gist. I wonder if the author is another dissatisfied customer? Or maybe a competitor mill in China? Also an "investor?" Could be stirring the pot for a short sale or buying put options on LL. Nowadays nuttin' suprises me.

Note name: Xuhua Zhou

Thanks.

This might be interesting to follow. The author said this ; Disclosure: I am short LL. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it. I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article. (More...)

Kinda gives a black eye to most all imports from China in a way. Maybe the guy is just an environmentilist concerned about consumers and their childrens health.

I tend to steer people away from imports from there anyway.

I have opened many a box of flooring from them that had clearly obnoxious odors. One strand was so bad I was concerned about my own health just installing it. Cant say if it was formaldhyde, but it sure was different than other manufacturers.

Thx for sharing. No, I wasn't aware of this. Useful info that we can share on why they are priced so low and add'l risks.
