| DON'T BUY | 62.370 | Laura Wallace | There is a lot of risk when it is at this price. Would be happy at a multiple of 25. Has terrific momentum and a fantastic company. | 2012-01-12 | |
| Comment | 53.070 | David Burrows | (Market Call Minute.) He was Short the stock but covered it yesterday. He thinks he was wrong and the stock is behaving better and is in the right space | 2012-01-05 | |
| WAIT | 47.950 | James Hodgins | He likes to buy companies that are starting to experience positive change. He would wait on this one until they show operationally that they can show they can capture that momentum back in the business. Once these companies start to miss they just keep feeding on themselves. | 2011-12-29 | |
| HOLD | 46.320 | Michael Smedley | Clearly a wonderful, high achieving company. Recently reported positive earnings of revenue forecasts where a little bit shy. High growth stocks are extremely sensitive in these bear markets conditions. Has massive support from consumers with a little bit of caution in the air that can affect its numbers. | 2011-12-13 | |
| DON'T BUY | 48.920 | Barry Schwartz | Great company and great products. Hitting on all the right cylinders in terms of marketing to the right people, but valuation is at about 35X next year's earnings and no dividend, which is way too high | 2011-12-12 | |
| BUY | 57.120 | Brooke Thackray | Seasonals are now until black Thursday and Jan 23 to Apr 12. Strong trend line going up, a rising wedge, which are very positive for it. Look for it to break through it’s high from earlier this year. | 2011-10-27 | |
| Comment | 56.990 | Michael Smedley | Still seems to be foremost in the lines and still king of the fashions in sportswear. He would wait for a correction. | 2011-09-27 | |
| TOP PICK | 56.400 | Mike S. Newton, CIM FCSI | A little expensive. Earnings they just posted were some of the strongest we saw on the TSX by a long shot. They lower guidance every single time they release earnings so people shouldn’t be surprised. Over-expansion is a long way away. They are picking up sales in Australia and New Zealand. | 2011-09-13 | |
| Comment | 49.320 | Colin Stewart | Good short? The difficulty is, it's a good company that is growing and is expensive. He has always found historically that shorting good companies that are growing is tough. | 2011-08-09 | |
| WEAK BUY | 57.790 | Laura Wallace | Fabulous company and loves the product but it is expensive at 54X this year's earnings. Lots of growth potential in the US but the stock is priced for perfection. | 2011-07-15 | |
| Comment | 57.790 | Benj Gallander | Came down after the IPO, but he doesn’t know if it is because of the crisis. It is not his kind of company, but he likes the products. | 2011-07-15 | |
| HOLD | 107.900 | Don Vialoux | A major broker in the US downgraded the stock today and the stock has come under a bit of pressure. Technically, the graph shows a fantastic upward trend. Fundamentals are good as the company just came out with strong earnings report. Technicals are very positive. | 2011-06-30 | |
| PAST TOP PICK | 98.620 | Stan Wong | (A Top Pick June 17/10. Up 122.01%.) Sold in the mid-$70s in March. Trading around 40X forward PE, which is a little rich in terms of valuation. Long-term growth is probably in the 20-25 range. | 2011-06-22 | |
| BUY | 88.660 | Michael Smedley | One of the great things he missed. Just reported great earnings. The story is intact. The clothing is still a must-have for kids and Moms. Dads don’t perspire any more apparently. | 2011-06-14 | |
| DON'T BUY | 81.080 | Jeff Parent B. Eng. FCSI | It’s not a bit trend. The downward trend would be identified if it dropped below $97. It’s just trading sideways right now. Don’t buy right now. It might drop to mid-$70 level where you see some support. There’s not a lot of volume right now. It could go to the $75 level. | 2011-06-07 | |
| DON'T BUY | 85.830 | Terry Shaunessy | One of the most overvalued stocks you could possibly get. Multiple of 43X is massive. Fundamentals don’t support the stock price. This stock could get hard. | 2011-06-01 | |
| DON'T BUY | 92.860 | Steve Carlin | Believes in the company and they have great growth prospects but trades at a very high P/E multiple. Will probably earn about $2.50 next year but P/E multiple is way too dear for him. Would have another look if it traded in the low to mid $70's. | 2011-05-11 | |
| BUY | 87.950 | Mike S. Newton, CIM FCSI | Keeps defying all the analysts and critics. Up 26% on the year and just hit an all time high. Doing a split. Were having difficulty keeping inventory in which caused a weak Q1. Should be able to get this sorted out. Doesn’t think most investors understand this company. Have $325 million in free cash flow versus $150 million last year. Expanding in Australia and the US. | 2011-04-04 | |
| DON'T BUY | 82.750 | Christine Poole | Trading at 55X earnings so is fully priced. Would prefer it around $49. US expansion seems to be going well. Getting in to new categories so there will be more competition. | 2011-02-14 | |

| BUY | 68.330 | Hap (Robert) Sneddon FCSI | (Came out with very solid numbers and sales a few weeks ago. Host’s comments.) Recently traded in a historically high space. This space now becomes support but could be an Exhaustion Gap. If it broke down through $61, Sell. From an Overbought/Oversold perspective, it s kind of bottoming. | 2011-01-05 | |
| Comment | 49.500 | Stan Wong | Recently Sold his holdings. Got too expensive for him at 33X forward PE (despite its good long term growth forecast). One of the better growth retailers in Canada. | 2010-11-18 | |
| Comment | 42.520 | Paul Thornton | Time Frame in Perspective. Chart shows strong upward trend in the last 52 weeks. Currently range bound since the correction started but it is trading closer to its high. Looking at this stock on a longer-term basis, it and many others like it are closing in on their old pre-bear market highs. It is normal for investors to sell stocks when they get back near their highs. | 2010-06-25 | |
| DON'T BUY | 43.650 | Don Lato | Great company, but way too expensive for his liking. Trading at about 38X this year's earnings and 30X next year’s. There is still growth ahead, but not enough to justify those multiples. | 2010-06-23 | |
| TOP PICK | 45.250 | Stan Wong | One of the best growth stories in the retail space in Canada. Now has over 100 stores in Canada, US, Hong Kong and Australia. Have positive earning surprises over the past 8 consecutive quarters. Long-term annual growth forecast is 25% per annum. | 2010-06-17 | |
| SELL | 27.870 | Barry Schwartz | (Market Call Minute) Looks too expensive. | 2009-12-02 | |
| BUY | 26.200 | Martin Hubbes, CFA | Seem to have products that people want. Would have guessed that sales would have been down but he was wrong. Sales will probably be very good this holiday. Risk is brand exhaustion but they are nowhere near that. It’s not a cheap stock. | 2009-10-21 | |
| DON'T BUY | 9.220 | Andrew Guy, CFA | (Market Call Minute.) High multiple niche player and will have a hard time continuing to grow as consumer purchases slow down. | 2008-11-19 | |
| DON'T BUY | 31.240 | Benj Gallander | Has a capitalization of over $2 billion. Revenues were about $220 million. The book value is about $1.50. His regret is that he didn't short it when it had its big run-up. Thanks their product line is under diversified and is pricey. | 2008-01-25 | |
| SELL | 34.330 | Don Vialoux | Chart shows a head and shoulders pattern indicating the stock is going to go a lot lower. The short-term momentum indicator shows the stock has been clearly oversold but there is additional downside risk at this time. On any type of strength, Sell. | 2008-01-16 | |
| DON'T BUY | 40.420 | David Driscoll | A fashion retailer, which can get very faddish with a very small number of potential customers. Has a forward PE of 94, which means company's earnings have to double every year for the next 5 years to make it worth and investment today. | 2007-12-06 | |
| HOLD | 37.160 | Paul Thornton | Really likes this stock longer term. Has suffered a significant decline here. The question is how badly hurt will the US consumer be because of losing money in their housing, etc. | 2007-11-21 | |
| SHORT | 53.960 | David Baskin | Outrageously expensive stock right now. | 2007-10-23 | |
| HOLD | 40.100 | Peter Hodson | See what happens in the States. | 2007-10-15 | |
| BUY | 44.470 | David Burrows | Retail is often interesting when you find a concept at an early stage that has shown great promise. This is one of them. Stock looks expensive but their clothing has become a dominant theme across the US. There is a long growth curve in front of them. | 2007-10-04 | |
| DON'T BUY | 42.690 | Chyanne Fickes | Grossly overvalued at 70X expected earnings. | 2007-10-01 | |
| DON'T BUY | 35.640 | Jean-Francois Tardif | Outstandingly expensive, traded roughly 300 times trailing 12-month earnings. Not my style of stock. Love the company but paying too much for it, not comfortable owning. More downside versus upside. Thought of shorting. | 2007-09-17 | |
| DON'T BUY | 35.000 | Laura Wallace | Extremely expensive. It is anticipating a doubling of the number of stores, which will be a challenge for management. Great Canadian success story. | 2007-08-02 | |
| DON'T BUY | 33.320 | Veronika Hirsch | Fashion item of a certain segment of the population. Expansion is in the US and the sales per store are not as high as they are in Canada. Trading at 50 X earnings and if anything ever goes wrong the risk is huge. | 2007-08-01 |
