Downside economy going into holidaty means shoppers hunting for stores that can provide more bang for the buck, Biglots fills that bill well. Decorations for all four holidays at well below other stores prices alone should provide increases in revs. and profits, gifting also will be less costly for shoppers in this retailer's stores.

Should do well when other stores fail. For example, they just got a bunch of stock from the Circuit City's that went under.

With the holiday season coming up and money being tight, Big Lots should clean up with great deals and tons of products. Should be a very good season for them, and any store like them, and i would not be suprised if they set some sales records.

Big lots is a discount retailer, and that is the only kind of retailer that is going to thrive in this market.

Poor Economy, People tend to start pinching pennies. Discount Department Stores tend to be more of a favorite in this economy then say Macy's

I believe this stock will earn appx 40 cents this quarter (+/- 5 cents) versus the 27 cents estimated. I believe Soleil and S&P are wrong in their opinions. It has "beat the estimates" for at least the past seven quarters and I think they are positioned to do it again this quarter (earnings 082608) based on current economic conditions and forsee economics driving more sales as folks become more aware of them. They are the leader in the group with very little competition. They have a 90+ relative strength.
PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS MY OPINION ONLY! I HAVE PUT MY MONEY WHERE MY MOUTH IS! DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH!!!

Lower it goes from here

Bad stock broke trend today after big run..

Large amount of insider selling following the recent run-up in stock price that I believe is unsustainable due to Wal-Mart effect and other low cost retailers that are much larger than Big Lots.

looking for retail stocks in the 10 to 15 range

While shorted nearly 40%, this company's stock has nearly doubled over the last five months. Short-killer with slow steady growth, at least until we hit a booming economy.
