| DON'T BUY | 7.080 | David Driscoll | Women's fashion retailer. Had been very successful through the 90s. High-end fashions in the US. Sold his holdings about a year ago when management stubbed its toe by moving into accessories for the younger crowd. | 2008-06-09 | |
| STRONG BUY | 25.500 | Charles Lannon | His pick of US retailing space. A turn around story, and are focusing on higher middle class, upper income women who are habitual spenders.
Has a small position in it. | 2007-06-07 | |
| BUY | 22.220 | David Driscoll | Same store sales were a little sluggish, but over the long run, their ability to grow stores of 100 to 200 a year, they’ll be able to get their same store sales up eventually. Speculative. | 2006-11-09 | |
| TOP PICK | 20.190 | David Driscoll | Casual clothing. Had a decline in sales growth from 20% to 18% and the stock dropped dramatically. At this level, their growth rate is actually higher than their P/E ratio. | 2006-09-14 | |
| BUY | 41.310 | David Driscoll | Caller heard that he should buy the Wal-Mart in Mexico because it's cheaper. A: Wal-Mart (WMT-N) the parent will grow at GDP. Very over valued at present. Wal-Mart Mexico would be a better way to go. (Ed: Can't find a listing.) Prefers Chico's (CHS-N) which is starting to roll out more and more stores every year. | 2005-08-03 | |
| WEAK BUY | 30.900 | Brad Willock | Huge earnings growth (25/28%). Trades at 24/25 X earnings. Near its high. | 2002-02-22 | |
