Investors had to call for help last week after shares of yellow pages publisher R.H. Donnelly plunged more than 60% to their lowest in 17 years. The final nail in the coffin came this week, as the economy weakened further and paper costs continued to rise. What's the trade as the death of the yellow pages seems inevitable.

I wouldn’t short RHD right now, counsels Karen Finerman. They have a great deal of debt on the books and typically people who use the yellow pages are people who have just moved to a new neighborhood. With home sales down that’s not good for RHD, either.

As an investment (at least one year and
a day), NOV and RIG represent money in
