Wall Street and companies throughout our Birmingham and Alabama Stock Report were left seeing red at the close of markets Wednesday. Five companies saw losses of 3% or greater. Still, one Birmingham stock bucked the downward trend with a significant gain. Louisiana-Pacific Corp. took the biggest hit, dropping nearly $9, or 11.8%. Founded in 1972, the Nashville-based company operates more than 20 manufacturing facilities across North and South America, including two in Alabama – one in Hanceville and one in Thomasville.
