Is it just a coincidence that the day before Star Wars release was a 5% drop for KIDE. Maybe just greenspan, etc... but tomorrow will be interesting to watch. My own observation is that kids and adults are clammering for anything star wars at the expense of other impulse buys. I'll confess my kids are capitalizing on the star wars hype by talking me into buying high-tech stuff for them. One bit of good news is the pre-teen market that drives pokemon goods should lose interest in star wars faster than the teenage crowd but I'm still looking for a 10-20% drop now that star wars is released. jmho.
