  • Is This Retailer Still Good Value?

    By Lee Samaha - May 22, 2013 | Tickers: COH, JWN, ROST, TJX

    The retail sector has been one of the hardest to call in recent years. The bifurcation in prospects between the haves and have-nots in the U.S. has created an atypical situation with the sector. Whereas in previous recoveries the general drift is upwards across the board, this recovery has seen a strengthening at the high end and a general movement towards ‘trading down’ in the mid range.

    By John Macris - May 22, 2013 | Tickers: COH, KORS, TIF

  • Facts Matter: You Should Consider These 3 Bargain Stocks

    By Adem Tahiri - May 16, 2013 | Tickers: AAPL, CSCO, COH

    What does a bargain stock look like to you?

    If you ask me, just having a low price to earnings (PE) ratio doesn't make a stock cheap. Nor does simply having a declining stock price, or trading at a 52 week low make a stock cheap.

    All of those numbers matter, but they're how you measure a value; they're not the reason value is created. To me more »

    By Anh HOANG - May 3, 2013 | Tickers: COH, FNP, KORS

    Barry Rosenstein has been quite successful with his value-oriented, event driven investment firm, Jana Partners. Last year, the Jana Master Fund delivered a return of 24.2%.

  • This Fashionable Company Is a Good Pick Now

    By Anh HOANG - May 2, 2013 | Tickers: COH, KORS, VRA

    An investment opportunity arises when a beaten down stock begins to pick up due to an improvement in its business. A stock might be beaten down because of various reasons: deteriorating fundamental performance, heavy insider selling, weak overall industry performance, earnings miss, etc. However, when those temporary problems are corrected and the business improves, it might be the time for opportunistic investors to come in.

    By Diane Alter - April 25, 2013 | Tickers: COH, KORS, VRA

    It wasn’t exactly a ten-bagger, but it was darn good nonetheless.

  • 3 Fashion Companies Expanding in China That Offer Sexy Returns

    By Jayson Derrick - April 23, 2013 | Tickers: COH, GPS, KORS

    I'm going to make a very bold statement here--soon China will dictate global fashion and will have more influence than Paris, Milan, and New York City will. Obviously, this isn’t happening this year, nor will it happen next year, but given the macro and micro economic factors that will drive China’s growth coupled with the country's billion-plus population, fashion companies are already paying very close attention more »

    By AnnaLisa Kraft - April 15, 2013 | Tickers: COH, FNP, KORS, RL

His eponymous company Ralph Lauren (NYSE: RL) has created an almost voyeuristic lifestyle brand with images of East Coast mansions, beautifully idle models, and an old-money fashion signature.
