Ladies of age will dominate the market soon....this is a perfect to take advantage of this sector.....a company that is still growing and yet has not debt!

CWTR is ripe for shorting--a retailer of non-essentials trading near a 52-week high as sales plummet, losses mount and debt is added. CWTR will probably have some trouble surviving a lousy holiday shopping season this winter, much less making it through this depression as a going concern.

purchases are starting to move it back up

My wife tells me that this is one of the few stores where she can buy classy cloth that fit her style. Apparently a lot of the other clothing stores target clothing for women under 20, not her style and either low quality or really pricey.

Retail in a downturn, but I like their clothes.

This stock has nowhere else to go but up. It has been stuck around the $2.00 mark for a whiel, but look for it to go up in the next year
Recs
I gotta think this stock will look like a bargain at current levels in about 1-2 years. I think they have good management.

Like their buisness model, But the economy sucks. They will bounce back to over $7.00 by mid October.

This is an upscale women's fasion mailorder company with a few storefronts out west. The founder had to buy back in after his retirement to keep it going. It has been kind of bouncing along all summer and I think it will take off this christmas season.

This company went down the tubes due to their lack of
making ladies clothing that was colorful and attractive to ladies
of all age groups from mid twenties to the mid 70's. Two years
ago my wife quit shopping at CWTR. I asked her why? Her
answer was as I state above. Over the last couple years
she would occasionally look in on CWTR. She bought Nothing.
Then one day about 4 months ago she showed me a couple of
Items she bought at CWTR. I liked the items. My question was
how many people were in the store? More than she had seen
in a year and a half. Were they buying or looking? They were
buying. Shortly after that I started buying the stock again. I think
that over the next 18 to 24 months they will be exceedingly
profitable. When looking at women's clothing equities, my
Purchase and sell decisions are based on my wife's knowledge
regarding what women like and what women wear.

This stock is sitting low. Look at its 52 week high. This stock has room to grow and is not going anywhere. I expect a 100% return from this stock and it will hit 10 in a few months!

This stock is at an all time low, due to a slow-down in retail. However, the company is sound and has a great product, often for boomers (the ones who have the money). They have a good solid balance sheet and I feel will continue to grow as the recession comes to a close. Some recent policy changes in the way that coupons and discounts are handled, will begin to pay off soon. But if, the company decides to send out fewer mail order catalogs, like another large catalog merchandiser did a few years ago, sales will drop drastically. Even though a lot of people like to order over the internet, they look in the catalog first because the image is much more clear, then go to the internet for convenient ordering. IF catalogs are cut back on to save money, they are doomed. Otherwise, UP it will go!

CWTR is undervalued and provides a margin of safety greater than 50% based on its current fair market value.

Company has a 52 week high of $28 and has dropped to near $4 as of a few weeks ago!!!! I attribute the drastic dip mainly to their aggressive growth of new store locations. They took on huge initial debt to make this happen and it has hit the bottom line. The economy surely has had its affect on the retail market as well, but with the baby boomers heading into retirement this company should thrive. Their Debts should go down while their REV stream should continue to grow. If they can limit operating expenses there is no reason they should not up their profit margin in the 5-10 year range. BARGAIN STOCK (IMO)

Technical reasons
Recs
With the continued slowdown in retail, a BV of 3.35, a forward PE of 33.88, a minus 14 cents in EPS this year and a measly 16 cents projected for next year, you would think that CWTR is teetering on the edge and ready to be put out of its misery. Indeed it might be. If retail clothing continues its decline, the company fails to guess which way the ever-changing tastes of the fickle middle-aged woman will move, or simply cannot develop a business model that takes advantage of this niche market, it will die a slow but sure death in Sandpoint, Idaho.
While there are worse places to die, what swings this to the buy column in my CAPS wish list is that 1) my wife buys their clothes, 2) it has more cash than it has debt, and biggest and best, 3) 22.2% of all shares are sold short. With only 90.8 million shares and a float of 56.88 million shares, only modest gains should result in a short squeeze that will put little old Sandpoint up there on the map with Boise and the financial hub of the west, good ole Salt Lake City.

In the process of expanding and updating product lines. They have a signature look that is popular with a growing segment of the market and I expect expansion to net new markets. On topof all that the company was born in the beautiful panhandle of Idaho.
