"A market beater (tripled) over the past five years." Pretty strong case for being bearish, don't you think? Thanks for the info, Dave.

This stock is obviously overpriced. I'm a little nervous about the mere .08% decline today,… More

Go against the crowd with this one. This company has good record, but huge amount of debt will drag it down.

If only I had invested in it in real life I wouldn't have lost 65% of my portfolio's value over a 10 month period. There is a lesson here about the steady performance of staples in a recession, but I don't know what it is.
