re PERY. i don't like the stock after a customary look. High debt load is the main detractor. PERY's interest expenses are growing rapidly and could become anb issue with higher overall rates or deteriorating credit ratings. I don't think their brands are strong and I don't see how they can position themselves against low cost competition.

HELE - their weak execution and cash flow generation was masked a while by acquisitions which foreshadowed the current weak results.

FWIW - during the last 2 years the junkiest and highest leveraged companies often had the best returns. I believe that going forward, things will be different and quality will win.
