VANS..KCP (WTSLA, JOSB,CHCS,PLCE) I've had VANS on my watch list and it has potential. It got a buy rating from AG Edwards on 13th, but its still too soon for me for anything but a sort term trade.. We should see some good earnings as well. The others on the list started out at one time just like VANS and have done exceedingly well. PLCE was a phenomenal stock last year and its now undergoing a well deserved rest. The other 3 I've owned from periods of 2 days to 1 year. KCP I've never owned but I'm hoping it will turn out to be another GUC so that's one I'm following as well. KCP is another undervalued growth stock and in this market those are the ones to watch when the market is toppy and even through corrections. You can't trade on hi-flying internets or tech stocks alone. I sold off my internets days ago but only got 'hurt' slightly on my 1-200 shares that I was holding as insurance. If one doesn't have a basket of ideas they should really stay on the sidelines until stocks resume their ascent and I have no doubt they will. I had numerous trading opportunities today but was held back by conference calls this morning luckily I don't speak with anyone until 10:15 or so, so I can get in my main trades of the day (KSWS). After that I usually miss out on any potential new plays. Vans (VANS-NNM) by A.G. Edwards (6 3/4, Jan. 13) Initiating coverage with a Buy rating.
