New York (DOW JONES) on GRIN inside
By Chinita Anderson

NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--Shares of Grand Toys International Inc. (GRIN) soared up
to 60% Monday on news that it will introduce Furby Babies in North America on
Aug. 31.
Grand Toy Chief Executive and Chairman Steven Altro said industry insiders had
already known the release date.
Sean McGowan, an analyst at Gerard Klauer Mattison & Co., said he expects
Furby Babies to be a "hot" product within the Furby toy line.
David Leibowitz, an analyst at Burnham Securities, said the Montreal company
distributes two of the most popular toys, Furby and Pokemon. "Any toy company
which has the rights to two of this year's hottest toy products would likely
generate investors' attention," he said.
Leibowitz said he expects Furby Babies and Pokemon to boost Grand Toys'
revenue.
Shares of Grand Toys recently were up 2 1/4, or 31.6%, at 9 3/8 on Nasdaq
volume of nearly 3.5 million versus average daily volume of 114,200. Earlier,
the shares traded at a 52-week high of 11 1/2, surpassing the previous high of
11 set on Nov. 30.
