Joe the replica collectible industry is big and getting bigger,these things aren't matchbox cars,some cost hundreds of dollars. When Nascar took off so did ACTN,one has to wonder if the same can't happen to JAKK,being in both the auto replica and wrestling merchandising. These two are actually pretty intertwined already..I believe the WWF sponsors a Nascar car..nite all DDPS: have to kick myself in the butt,sold ACTN way to early,but made a good profit...

TA read on JAKK

Long term near strong (shows the stock has support for a good long run) short term strong but overbought.

Magnets 11.00, 15, 15.50, 15.75...

Neutral zone (half way between magnets) 13.00

Signal magnets (1/2 the value of the magnets) 9.50, 9.75

History of magnets with JAKK. After signaling a new magnet the stock generally has one more day of strength followed by a small downturn which is a great time to accumulate. After the 3-8 day base/decline time the stock has started its climb. I would say accumulation for the stock would be prudent in the 9.50 area or lower. The overbought status in the short term indicators are leaning toward this scenario, however...

JAKK does have milesofstyles powertool kicking strong which is a very good thing to happen. With this kicking like it is the stock may not dip at all. I would give it a 30% chance of staying in the uptrend.

The basic chart formation for JAKK is a Cup and Handle. Tops of the cup are 10/24/97 and 5/1/98. Classic O'Neil would say to wait for a break of the line which connects the highs for those dates.

DD, back with USXX later.

JoeinIowa, I just found some time to look at CMP. It's easy to see that the cost cutting and change in strategy is working. Earnings are due July 15th for the year and the fourth quarter. This year's earnings are expected to be .54/share vs. a loss of 1.19/share last year. Not bad !!! Also next year is anticipated to be even better @ 1.00/share.
That's very healthy growth.

The downside is the Co's cash flow problem. The convertible debentures were necessary for the Co. to maintain NYSE listing requirements and it is foreseeable that more debentures are going to
be issued in the near future.

The upcoming earnings report will be very revealing and give some clues as to the funding/growth tug of war that this Co. is undergoing.
