Any company whose primary decor elements include mounted stuffed bears has to get a green thumb.
Good inventory control improvement. Farming off bad CC debt to Chase & keeping good card holding customers that spend well. Smartly backing off on new store openings & streamlining new store format.
Obama fear continues to drive Hunting Equipment sales.

Great mail order house with great quality and they don't compete on price. Only hesitation is if new stores can hold their own and add to the mail order business.

Have some very tough comps coming up, where gun sales were good due to a rush to buy them in case Obama was going to tighten restrictions on that side of things.

I read of the credit issues. The credit card reform is going to hurt. So shorting is in my world.
Recs
It's at $13.81, and has a Book Value of $13.80. It's been trending up, and has some nice momentum. The 17% short interest may offer a nice short squeeze.

completed a cup and handle tech pattern look for a break out above previous high for confirmation

Decent quality merchandise at a reasonable price with excellent service to boot.

Cabela's caters to a very specific group of sportsmen, hunters, fisher persons and campers. This is a group of people who will continue to pursue their hobbies regardless of what the economy is doing. This persona of the sportsman should help Cabelas weather this downturn and continue to offer great service and excellent products at a competitive price. I suspect that their stock will begin to rebound as the stock market and economy in general begin to turn around.

Obama will leave us all living in the woods. Stock up now!

Cabelas is a great company. Their agressive retail expansion and financial business have kept me a little concerned lately but I'm jumping in with real money now. They own most or all of their real estate and they usually only build with substantial financial incentives, including surrounding property leases. As far as their financial division goes, I'm less concerned than a year or two ago. They are not a survivalist retailer, alhtough gun sales have been a huge helper lately. They sell everything from lawn chairs to kids toys.
Most of all, I am astounded at their customer service! Walk into their stores and look at the shelves of the "Bargain Cave" and you will see what I am talking about. Usually their prices are very competative to local stores and if I can buy it from Cabelas fo the same price I will do so simply for their customer service. I have been buying from them for years and never had a problem from their customer service. If they sell it, they back it 100%. If you have questions about a product they sell, call them and ask. If they don't know they answer they will get it and call you back. I have never had anything but polite and helpful people to talk to on the phone. In fact, I bought a product for my dog (not a Cabelas brand product) and had some problems. Twice they sent me a brand new replacement, free shipping both ways, until the manufacturer replaced the original. I never even talked to the product manufacturer!
It's hard to put a price on convienence, but Cabelas does it.
