Don't listen to Whirlpool (WHR) where you would learn that the worst recession in appliances in three decades is now morphing into the worst ever, and GE (GE) is still trying to sell its appliance division.

PE of 9, a PEG of 0.89, and it pays a yield of 2.6%.

Now, there are major trends that can be adhered to. I have said ad nauseum that the banks and homebuilders and retailers and consumers of oil and gas bottomed on July 15. Not all, obviously: Lehman (LEH) and Washington Mutual (WM) are classic outliers, as will be AIG. These stocks have their own peculiar patterns, like the 6-point run in Whirlpool (WHR) on Friday and the 5-point decline yesterday.
