I wouldn't touch any retailers right now, with real $$$. I expect a pull back of ARO(Strong Sell), CACH, JWN, JOSB, ZUMZ, FINL, and VLCM. I'm only short on ARO, FINL, and I might short CACH.I think JWN is a buy at $31.JOSB, could go up or down,… More

"BOSTON (MarketWatch) -- If you're an athlete in search of appropriate footwear or something hard to find, a Finish Line store with as many as 1,000 choices of sneakers and casual shoes is a shopper's dream.

That said, the Indianapolis-based company could be an investor's nightmare. Its shares are priced near the high end of their valuation, with some muddy off-balance sheet issues that could make buyers feel like they've just stepped into the Stupid Investment of the Week."

"...With a fair-market value that stands somewhere between $6 and $9 per share, by most estimates, there's no denying that Finish Line is past the flag on the time when it should be purchased as some kind of bargain. Given the current economic and retail climate, investors should be betting that this race is over, and that Finish Line shares will head back to fair value -- or worse -- before toeing the starting line for another run."

Retail, mall based, lots of competition, bad economy, near 52 week high, sales have fallen 3 straight years, high PE, what is there to like about this one, I do not see it.
