See 'Investment Analysis Clubs / Dynamic Value Investing' board and my CAPS profile for further excellent companies selling at a discount to Maxprice with excellent current metrics. CAPS only shows my selections over 100Mill (unfortunately due to restricted lower market cap applied by MF CAPS).

As stated on the 'Investment Analysis Clubs /Dynamic Value Investing' board my aim is to obtain up to 50% returns p.a. as Buffett stated he could obtain (3 times) recently. A very difficult task but you can follow along with my buys and sells on my CAPS page, where I put my money where my mouth is . If I perform well I hope you can benefit. If not , feel free to ignore my comments. CAPS allows each and everyone of us to be clinically judged on our stock picking abilities over the LONG TERM.

Please always do your own due diligence before investing.

Manucastle :o)

Look for M&A

yup

fransgeraedts, b-bands

Just kicking you while your down. Take that!

The only market these shoes sell well in is the Asian market, which is plagued with knock offs. I applaud their attempt to diversify their product line, however the shoes are still unappealing for the most part, and still carry a brand name plagued with "ugly."

Their main product is no longer in the growth stage, and the only thing that will save them is a genius marketing ploy. It's so hard for me to simply go short on a stock based on their product, since they ARE cutting costs, but I have to remain short on this one.

Not a fad anymore-new designs aren't selling

If this company has'nt taken off by now it's not happening.

(sidenote) I like the sandals.

No Thanks!

They were close to extinction before, but they made a remarkable comeback. Over the last two months, there stock has been relatively flat, in a trading range. The market rally since March has obviously helped this company's stock price. The expectation for a recovery in retail has made this company look like a good value play. Unfortunately, retail recovery will be dependent primarily on unemployment recovery, which I don't see happening soon. So that begs the question, does this company have enough capital to survive until unemployment improves? I don't think so and I think that this will become apparent within a year.

Been best seller on amazon.co.uk for ages!

This company will not be in business in 1-2 years will sell out or go under.

We understand CROX my not be the best ran company out there but the darn things are sure easy on the feet.

Great product, but cheap knock-offs are just as good. Has the look of a fad that is winding down.

Crox is disproportionally high compared to the index, if you believe the index will rise Crox is coming down to get in step. In addition they have been unimaginaative in new product developement. Company designers seem to target the fad market instaed of funtional apparrel. I believe they are more fad than favorable.

Low P/E. Some people still wear it.
