I’m curious why Smith and Wesson has a negative PE. Can someone explain that?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think S&W is owned by the same parent corporation that owns (or used to own) Chrysler. Bushmaster & Remington are in the same boat, IIRC.

When it comes to Remington & Bushmaster products, I definitely prefer ArmaLite...

Negative PEs are bc of losses, either because of ongoing operations, or one time charges, or both.
