There is a ton of imported stuff, much more than ever before. So, lower prices lower margins. Also, the whole industry is suffering because of lower prices. I have no clue why prices of metals follow prices of oil, but that seem to be what's happening. I'd say we'll be hurt with prices dropping, but at the same time we might bounce back quickly if things turn around. I just do not see barrel dropping below 60.

What's your prediction for 2015? Layoffs? No Layoffs? Business as usual.
