Went to the mall this weekend and noticed JCrew was the only retailer with huge checkout lines, so I'm thinking it still has some more room to the upside.

When the overly optimistic FOMC says that household spending will be "constrained" by sluggish income growth, ongoing job losses, lower household wealth, and tight credit AND Shanghai stocks hit a seven-week low, then you know this bear market rally is finally over!

The 1929-1930 equity rally (coming out of The Great Depression) lasted 147 days and the market was up 46%. It has been the same amount of time since the March, 2009 low and we are up about the same percentage. It’s déjà vu (paramnesia), so prepare for a drop of about the same percentage (85%).

HIgh profit margin, upscale products, and a clientelle that can still afford to spend/buy. Sales continue to exceed expectations in spite of general sour attitude on the economy. Economic improvement will only sweeten the deal.

Michelle Obama & the Obama Girls are giving this retailer thier pop especially with Michelle's Homerun hit in Europe, they LOVE her style - You too can have off the rack style just like our first family, if you can afford it. Otherwise you may have to settle for JC Penny or Walmart.

JCG is really hurting right now. What is my reasoning behind this? With a nearly -83% growth rate in the past year, this company is still on the nose dive. JCG has been absolutely bombarding my inbox with emails with sale after sale. It's obvious they are desperately trying to cut prices in order to control the damage.
JCG really dropped the ball on Black Friday as well after their server went down for the majority of the day and for the rest of the weekend. Maybe that's why they have been having a straight two weeks of 20-30% sales with free shipping.
As a college student, I realize the popularity amongst our generation with JCG and I think they will bounce back but the bottom is not here yet.
On the flip side, after receiving some clothing from them in the mail, I realize that JCG definitely has some good profit margins on their clothes judging by the quality. I'm not saying the quality is low but for a $60 fleece sweatshirt, I can't say that I would think it would cost anywhere near half that to make.
Final verdict on JCG: A company that probably will not go out of business but I wouldn't invest in this company in the next 1-3 months.

This is a different company that it was 5 years ago. Clothes are quality. Classic yet modern. What Tommy Hilfiger tried to be and almost was in the 90's. A lot of connections with GQ lately. This is a brand on the rise.
