joseph. i'm not an ML client, but the last couple write-ups that i'm aware of were post-Q2 earnings back in august. for what it's worth, ML has some of their research reports available online (if you register). below are a couple backdoor links to two reports. additionally, that NY Times piece on sat oct 9 was half-decent. essentially, Gap's entire 7% rise in sep sales was due to BR and ON; sales at the flagship store, however, declined 4%, which according to the writer, was the 6th consecutive month that Gap stores posted flat or negative sales. GapKids has also been lackluster. ----- 23 aug 99 Reinventing Retail Again: Old Navy's Newest and Biggest Splash askmerrill.com 17 aug 99 2Q EPS $0.22; Increasing Estimates (ACCUMULATE) askmerrill.com (note: if they don't work for you and you're still interested, feel free to PM me your handle and i'll shoot them over to you.) hope this helps, -chris.
