Value Line just came out with their quarterly review of Claire's. In summary here are some highlights:

*They expect earnings growth of 19.5% over the next five years, a slowdown from the 39% gain in this past year, but they add :Can anyone call this [earnings increase] shabby?
*They explain the big price drop from last summer's high as being caused by institutional holders who liquidated holdings that were aquired at $2.80 - $7.60 a share in prior years.
*They expect double digit same store sales growth this year.
*They estimate the number of stores will increase from 1570 in 1996 to 2060 in 2000/2001.

In general it is a very upbeat analysis. They rate it 2 for timeliness (Above Average)
