The current PE of 18 seems to be a fair value, perhaps even a bit excessive given their growth rate over the past few years and admitted slowing of growth in the retail sector.

Of course, a renewed focus on the wholesale side of things could spur earnings in the short term, but I just don't see 20%+ growth from this company on an ongoing basis. On a pure valuation basis it's not cheap.

If it moves up again tomorrow and is able to close above its recent trendline, I'll jump back in. Right now it's still a bit below the recent trend.
