I think this stock was unfairly oversold with announcements that their growth numbers were shrinking like every other company in the retail industry. They have a decent brand, good fundamentals, and a great price right now. The 2.32% dividend certainly sweetens the deal. Spring and Summer clothing always helps this cyclical retailers, so I see this as a sure bet for the medium term.

I have done extremely well with this stock over the past 10 years. I listen to my teenager! Every time I walk by that store, I see what they are buying. I have to agree that the women's line is in need of help. My teenager does not like their jeans...she told me this 6 months ago. AEO is revamping their women's line of jeans. Teens do not care about the credit crisis. They will ask for the trendy clothes and the parents will buy...You are correct. AEO has taken a bad rap over the past few months. Spring should prove to be a big turnaround.
