Brian, You criticized my original succinct and very accurate post this thread as stupid, and as one that stated obvious points which were already posted in this thread. In my post, I pointed out that sales growth was very slow or declining, and that this trend combined with the fact that they have no margin expansion would be a problem for earnings. If you all read the analysis today of why they missed earnings, you will see this is exactly what happened. My question to you: If my points were so obvious to you and already posted in the thread, why did everyone continue to support this stock, instead of predict that it would go down, like I did? I was always surprised that you missed my original points, which all of you flamed so much, points that would have kept anyone from losing a lot of money as the stock went from $28 to $14 where it is today, for the reasons I stated months ago. Happy Investing! Vanni
