  • The Winners of First Quarter Earnings

    By Tyler Wofford - May 8, 2013 | Tickers: BGFV, CAB, NLS, UA

    In many parts of America, the primary hunting seasons range from October - February, much like the NFL season. The seasons generally pick up again in the Spring as turkey season comes around. Sports companies turned in very solid earnings in the first quarter, but it wasn't limited to just sporting goods.

    The good:

  • Gun Control Talks Haven't Curbed These Companies

    By Austin Higgins - April 29, 2013 | Tickers: CAB, SWHC, RGR

    With the nation discussing the future of gun control and background checks, some Americans purchased even more firearms in anticipation of changing regulations. In March 2013 there was a 26% increase in the number of background checks performed for firearms sales. Investors can benefit from this sales trend in two different ways: firearm retail stores and firearm manufacturers.

  • A Sporting Way to Make a Winning Investment

    By Ken McGaha - April 21, 2013 | Tickers: CAB, DKS, HIBB

    There is no doubt that Americans love sports and competition. Typically, we only think of professional athletes or team owners as being in a position to profit from that situation. However, there is a way that virtually anyone can make very solid profits over many years: by investing in the businesses that supply us with the equipment we use in pursuit of our love of sporting activities.

  • Now That Gun Control Has Failed, It’s Time to Buy Gun Stocks

    By Salvatore "Sam" Mattera - April 20, 2013 | Tickers: CAB, SWHC, RGR

    Yet another blow was delivered to proponents of gun control on Tuesday, when four Democratic Senators opted to break with their party and vote against expanding background checks for gun purchasers.

    The bipartisan Manchin-Toomey amendment was seen as the weakest of the proposals aimed at restricting gun ownership; with it failing, the regulatory threat facing companies like Sturm, Ruger (NYSE: RGR), Smith & Wesson (NASDAQ: SWHC) and Cabela’s (NYSE: CABmore »)

  • Will Gun Regulations Help Gun Makers?

    By Tyler Wofford - April 16, 2013 | Tickers: CAB, DKS, SWHC, RGR

    There is a lot of debate on what will happen with the gun-control issues. With the recent shootings, various politicians (both Republican and Democrat) have tried to crack down and regulate guns more than ever before. How would more regulations effect investments in gun manufacturers and distributors?

    Many companies such as Sturm, Ruger & Company (NYSE: RGR) (I will refer to it as Ruger), Cabela's (NYSE: CAB), and Olin (the more »

  • The Gun Market and You

    By Neal Sayatovich - March 26, 2013 | Tickers: CAB, SWHC

    Many have been on edge recently with the new gun laws on the table in Washington. Some states such as Colorado are already working on trying to pass as many as eight new gun laws. Many people are flocking to local sporting goods stores in droves to secure weapons.

  • Why This Destination Retailer Will Continue to Shoot Higher

    By AnnaLisa Kraft - March 19, 2013 | Tickers: CAB, DKS, RGR

    My favorite childhood book  was "My Side of The Mountain," about a boy who lives off the land, hunting and fishing. If there had been a Cabela's (NYSE: CAB), the outdoors retailer, (NYSE: CAB)around me I would have haunted the place. Even if you're not outdoorsy Cabela's is a great place to visit with huge dioramas, cafeterias featuring game dishes, classes, wildlife art and gun museums, duck ponds more »

  • It Might Be Time to Buy Sporting Goods Stocks

    By BenzingaNews - March 14, 2013 | Tickers: CAB, DKS

    by Tim Parker, Benzinga staff writer

    Shares of Cabela's (NYSE:CAB) climbed more than 12 percent this week as the company increased guidance on its earnings per share. For those who took CNBC’s Jim Cramer’s advice on March 8 when he said, “If you're long, I'd take half off ahead of the quarter,” some upside was missed.

  • Should You Buy the Dip at Dick's?

    By Leo Sun - March 13, 2013 | Tickers: CAB, DKS, HIBB, WMT

    Dick’s Sporting Goods (NYSE: DKS), the American sports superstore that also operates Golf Galaxy, recently stunned investors with bleak fourth quarter earnings and a soft outlook for the coming year. As a result, shares plunged more than 10% after its fourth quarter earnings announcement on March 11.

    In my opinion, this panicked sell-off has created a possible investment opportunity for patient investors. In this article I’ll examine the more »

    By Robert Ciura - March 12, 2013 | Tickers: CAB, DKS, HD | Editor's Choice

    Slowly but surely, the days get longer and the temperature gets warmer. Outdoor retailers have been on an absolute tear as of late, and now that spring is finally near, could be primed for further gains.

  • Not the Best Way to Play Sporting Goods

    By Matthew Frankel - February 27, 2013 | Tickers: CAB, DKS, NKE, UA

    Dick’s Sporting Goods (NYSE: DKS) is a leading operator of sporting goods stores, with over 550 locations in 43 states.  Dick’s has done an excellent job of growing revenues over the past decade (see chart), and as a result, shareholders have been handsomely rewarded as the stock has climbed from $3 in 2003 to the current level of just under $50. 

    However, I believe that the stock may more »

  • Can These ATV Manufacturers Charge Up Your Portfolio?

    By Robert Hanley - February 21, 2013 | Tickers: ACAT, CAB, PII

    Americans are spending time off-roading once again, as interest in outdoor sporting activities rises and discretionary income improves. Global industry sales of all-terrain vehicles (ATV) rose at a high single-digit rate in 2012, continuing its rebound off the sales declines caused by the financial crisis. More importantly, profits are rising sharply for the leading manufacturers, including Polaris Industries (NYSE: PII) and Arctic Cat (NASDAQ: ACAT). After sharp stock price gains more »

  • Gun Investments: A Moral Dilemma?

    By Greg Bartlett - February 19, 2013 | Tickers: CAB, SWHC, RGR

    Last week, Chicago Mayor Rahm Emmanuel asked six mutual fund companies to sell off stock holdings in gun manufacturing companies Sturm, Ruger & Company (NYSE: RGR) and Smith & Wesson (NASDAQ: SWHC).  City officials in other major cities around the U.S. have considered taking similar action in addressing gun holdings in their pension funds. With gun violence taking center stage after the Newtown, CT tragedy, it’s tempting for many investors more »

  • Big Gun Control Plan for President Obama, Big Profits for Gun Sellers

    By John McKenna - January 28, 2013 | Tickers: CAB, SWHC, RGR, WMT

    One of President Obama’s first priorities of his new term is set to be about gun control laws. Following the tragic Newtown shooting, he held two press conferences where he signaled a desire to pass some of the most sweeping gun control laws in three decades, the most prominent of which is a ban on “assault weapons,” which was repealed in 2004 after 10 years. The measures drew criticism more »

    Not only were there are number of market moving stocks on Wednesday, but there were also several under and fairly valued stocks to trade higher. This was a day when Boeing, auto sales, and gun policy dominated the news. However, the following under-the-radar stocks also ticked higher, and present the potential to trade even higher.

    Thomas Jefferson: "No Free Man Shall Ever Be Debarred the Use of Arms." What type of ammunition someone uses, what firearm they buy, and where they buy it, is completely up to them. As a result of the public shootings in the past year, many people, politicians, and even firearm companies want to ban/regulate firearms more heavily. The following companies either distribute or manufacture firearms and will be directly more »

  • Three Stocks With Multi-Day Losses That Could Continue

    By Brian Nichols - December 19, 2012 | Tickers: CAB, RGR, YELP

    The majority of stocks traded higher on Tuesday thanks to massive gains in the market.  However, there were a few exceptions; stocks that traded with a fairly significant loss despite the market’s large gains. Therefore, I am looking at such stocks, but more specifically stocks trading with multi day losses that might indicate a further downtrend.

    Despite strong year-over-year growth and expected growth in 2013, shares of Cabela's more »
