(Canada) Newsprint is always going to be made because newspapers, we hope, will always be read. But for the companies that produce the newsprint, the future is far less certain - making any investment in AbitibiBowater Inc. only for the very brave.
This year alone, the company's shares are down more than 30 per cent. Plus, Abitibi-Consolidated Inc.'s shares slid 90 per cent in the 10 years prior to merging with Bowater Inc. last year, when shares of the combined entity were reset.
