I agree that Blair's products are unappealing. I saw one of their catalogs and it looked like polyester pants suits for blue-haired old ladies. Same crap as Fingerhut (and who ever thought of that name? Makes me picture a finger and a little hut....). But since I am doing quantitative as opposed to qualitative analysis, I try not be put off by a boring, unsexy line of business. Since we are all intelligent, tasteful folks (aren't we?), it's easy to forget that what we hate, other people may like, and their money is good too. Unless that recession you mentioned hits, then that would be ugly for a lot of companies. I vaguely remember what a recession is like.... I guess I'll keep an eye on this one. Thank you for your excellent comments.
