Hasbro, Inc. (NASDAQ:HAS)

Kids will love buying G I Joe action figures! When the younger investors (including me) starts noticing Hasbro (which is now), it will remind all of us that Hasbro is still selling the greatest board game of all times.

SA pick I got in real life

oversold...great valuation ...PEG below 1...

Do you want to bet against Transformers and GI Joe and the legion of die hard fans?

Hasbro is beginning to tap its strength, could this be another Marvel all over again?

This company is the number 1 toy company in America. With the G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra movie due out in August, bringing back strong core brands for boys toys like Transformers and G.I. Joe, and the future use of Hasbro property in media, Hasbro stock is poised to go up over the long term.

I like it

this stock is a two way street gainer. the movies sell the toys and the toys sell the movies and the movies then sell more toys and toys sell more....(you know the rest). i have not read anything describing hasboro growth other than the movies will sell the toys. wait until "little johnny" goes next door and sees what his little friend is playing with and his little friend tells him "you gotta see the movie so you can pick out your favorite one (toy). a children's unstoppable STAMPEDE in the making here. one hand washing the other. don't wait for wall st. to finally bake that into the pie. it's already there.

The next version of a Disney or Marvel. Juicy dividend (why don't those factor into CAPS ratings?).

Toys are inexpensive long lasting fun, and if the kids out grow them you can re-sell it on e-bay

Transformers and GI Joe toys never get old and they both have summer movies coming out.

Hasbro is currently positioned to move its stock price upward towards the $30 levels by August due to the highly anticipated release of Transformers 2, followed by GI Joe in August. The company also has toys made for both film characters as well as Marvel's Wolverine, which came out in May. The deal with Discovery will cost the earnings this year but the stock will pop on anticipation from both movies on the short term basis. Any long term investors should be thrilled to be in this stock due to the additional prospects from cable TV and future movies. There is also a quarterly dividend of 0.20 cents. I accidentally ended this position on fool.com so I wanted to repost it as one of my favorite picks buy now and hold at least till the dividend payout in July.

Just as Marvel is realizing the kind of success they can have with comic book movies, I believe Hasbro will come to realize that there is money to be made with movies based on their toys. With what I believe is an even bigger target audience (what kid never played with a GI Joe or Transformer?) I think they have a great chance for success with these movies. not to mention the boost in toy sales these movies will bring! they have an impressive franchise of games and toys alike and have proven since 1923 that they can be innovators in the industry (Pokemon, My little pony, the list goes on) and when this economy turns around all the parents will be trying to make up for the sub-par Christmas, Birthdays etc...

Good dividend with moderate payout ratio, not that far off its 12 month low, big summer movie plans, trying to follow the example of Marvel. It is consumer-dependent, but risk is partially mitigated by the relatively cheap price.

One of the latest pick by Motley Fool. I agree with the analysts and have picked this stock to outperform the S&P.

If you want to make 15% in the next month. Please do yourself a favor and get into Hasbro now. It is a gauranteed investment. I promise.
Catalyst: Transformers 2 (debut 6/24), Insider Purchase ($240,000, 5/26), For a one month to three month period Hasbro has underperformed the S&P by 10-15%. This will be corrected shortly, thank you.

Solid company, Very cheap now

The p/e is great. The stock is at a 52 week low, and the CFO just bought a quarter mil in stock. This is the closest stock I have found to a sure thing in months.

good toyss

good toy makers
