TWLB.. This is still a stock pickers' market. Bargains will now be available throughout all sectors. For longer term holds, stocks that have been unfairly slammed will be the first to rebound.

I'm still bullish on this stock. I've held RXSD for years but have sold it last quarter.
TWLB's earnings jumped 50% from a year earlier to 27 cents a share. Revenue climbed 76% to $78.6 million.

Analysts expect earnings to rise 55% to $1.30 a share in '98 and another 25% to $1.62 in '99.

Much of that growth can be chalked up to the company's recent expansion beyond its core base of health food stores. It is in just about every sales channel, including discount stores and direct-mail catalogs.

GNC has slashed its prices by 40% but GNC is one 11% of TWLB's accounts. Twinlab sells more than 1,00 products to retailers under the labels Twinlab, Nature's Herbs and Alvita Herbal Teas. Now that they have acquired Bronson Nutritional Mail order division they sell through the mail.

In '97, TWLB began aggressively selling its products to discount stores, drugstores and other mass merchants.

In the second quarter, Twinlab made $12.4 million in sales to mass merchants - 400% more than the year before.

Now they have a new line of sports nutrition supplements called Twinlab Ironman Triathlon Nutrition. Scheduled to reach the mass market in September, the line will initially include six sports and fitness products.

technicals: MACD is still bearish and of course, TWLB is now in a downward trend. Stochastics are way oversold and as in, WFMI, I'm looking for a trend reversal.
