Very few retail stocks have showed much strength lately; even if the valuations are good it's hard for me to see the sector going very far. Looks like the pro-TYC crowd is winning that battle. Still just watching since I have lost my taste for anything that looks like a conglomerate. If PGO has any positive news on asset sales after the bell, it's going to have one helluva pop tomorrow.

More on PERY - Before Wednesday's opening bell, the Miami design apparel firm reported second-quarter earnings of $2.2 million, or 34 cents a share, up from its year-ago profit of $1.5 million, or 23 cents a share. Revenue slipped to $64 million in the latest three months from $65.6 million in the same period a year earlier. However, the performance of the company's recently acquired Jantzen swimwear business may be distressing investors. The company said that the acquisition of Jantzen decreased earnings by 10 cents per share in the quarter, and that, due to the seasonality of its business, Perry Ellis doesn't expect a positive contribution from Jantzen until the fourth quarter of this year.
