Fossil (FOSL) closed at 21.35 on friday. The ratings are good and the charts show it's going up. Here's the interesting part, on 5/13 they announced a stock buyback of up to a million shares. At the time the price was at $24, then on 5/17 it was at less than $20. Wouldn't the price go up, or at least stay the same, if a buyback is announced? I'm a newbie so go easy on me  |

| I just saw on the latest issue of BusinessWeek that Pacific Sunwear (PSUN) is number 31 on their list of the 100 best small companies. Looking at the charts and ratings my guess is that it's going to be a great pick, I'll definetly buy a ton (using funny money, of course) if it goes down to $20 |

i hadn't realized that the wal-mart transformation into a national retail grocer was so complete.
thanks for that thought!
so... wal-mart is serving as a CATEGORY KILLER for the national retail grocers.
whole foods (WFMI) is serving as a CATEGORY KILLER not to the national retail grocerers such as wal*mart and regional retail grocers such as winn dixie (but to the national health foods store retailers).
this must mean that the health foods segment is simply growing at a very high and sustained rate and that this growth must reveals itself in (WFMI) same store sales growth. |
