As one of the few remaining fully integrated forest products companies, Weyerhaeuser's earnings are highly leveraged to U.S. housing demand. While persistent weakness in the residential construction market may limit near-term share appreciation, we view the stock's current valuation as an attractive entry point to participate in significant earnings growth over the next 1-3 years."
