American Eagle

DISCLOSURE – please read WallStrip’s Conversation for a more informed opinion of the stock’s prospects. I am overwhelmed with being underwhelmed :) .

American Eagle…??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

No Freaking idea.

Lindsay has the only explanation (watch the video) as I have forever been mystified by teen retailers. Maybe it is because my mother dressed me in knickers and I am waiting for a teen “Dutch” chain to open so I can pile in.

The real deal here for me is that I am not a fan of retail and avoid the sector in general. Apple and Chipotle are my exceptions to the rule, but I spend half my life there so it is like investing in my primary residence .

New Highs are New Highs and that strategy has worked very well the past few years for American Eagle.

I am not getting the concept. I believe they are riding a consumer trend themselves and they could easily continue to do so. They do so without me.

By the way, I am also upset that 20 people asked us to stop filming in the store. POLICY.

Question: They have already made a business of knocking off Abercrombie and Fitch with their camera’s so what is left to film? Lighten Up Eagle boy!

Disclosure – I have no position”in” and no clothes “from” American Eagle.
