Thanks Tony, yes fair point. In my mind the main risks are:

1) Operating deleverage in case of a severe US recession (a large part of the cost base (opex) is labour, this is a service business).

2) Significant deterioration in construction activity in the US (although remember Ferguson today has a much smaller exposure to new construction than in 2007).

Thanx! Your post makes me think about AOJ (Denmark)? See Alex Eliasson on Twitter.
