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!

StockScouter rating is 10 and high 3 and 12 month RS.

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%).

trade up play

After inflation hits, $.99 wont get you much.

name brands, usually sell better....

This store rocks. Unlike dollar store, you can get everything you need - including fruit, milk, cheese, butter, etc. Once you shop there - you will go back.

Saturdays are a mad house. Feels like they are giving the food away.

Mom has spoken.

Ugh, I actually hope I am wrong on this one. More cheap plastic crap, disposable life, hollow and non-sustaining junk...

name brand cereals @ major supermarkets $5 a box.

same cereals @ ndn half the price.

other hse hold itims follow the same price dif.

people will shop there for the nessecities not just the junk.

ndn will profit slowlly be patient

Tiny margins in a space that is flooded with competition. I think an optimistic view of this stock would be market perform. People won't suddenly start going here because money is tight; I think your average American tries to be thrifty as it is, so if they could be saving money in these stores, they'd already be shopping there.

The Recession will soon turn into a Global Depression and these are the kind of stocks that might quadruple in months time.

My wife made me buy this one a few months back at $7.4 Thanks babe, for once you "were right". (Im dead BTW) The stores are constantly packed and they have backed out of their toxic Texas market. Margins are thin and shrink continues to haunt them. In the near term, though, I think this one is a good play.

Got a flag formation and really high rankings in jaywalk universe.....i bought 150 shares at 10.73 and i expect it to jump up to 13.00 in the next few weeks here......short term trading love.....good luck lets make some cash money baby

Simple business model; poised to succeed in recession/economic downturn, what have you. Predict steady to moderate growth for at least three -five years.

The economy will push people towards retailers with low price items, especially those that supply basic daily living needs.

I don't see people flocking to 99 cent stores because of the economy; they don't sell anything you HAVE to have. Margins are razor-thin by necessity, and I don't see them outperforming the market.

"Exteme Value Retailer" does not equal "Extreme Value Stock".

I'm not buying dollar stores as the consumer's solution to the downturn. I don't buy them as purveyor sof "substitute goods" in the downturn. The don't sell fruits, vegetables, milk, eggs, or most of the bare grocery essentials. Half of what they sell is pure crap, another half is knockoff stuff and the other half is various gag gifts/items.

YES THE MKT IS CROWDED AND WHAT DOES THAT TELL YOU. THEY HAD TO MAKE THIER 1ST PRICE INCREASE OF UP TO .99 CENTS IN OVER 25 YRS & PEOPLE DON'T HOLD THIS AGAINST THEM INSTEAD THEY UNDERSTAND THE REASON WHY. IT'S BECAUSE THOSE BLOWHARDS FROM WELL ST. (YES WELL ST) DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE ONE IS! IV'E NEVER MET G. W BUSH & THE RAT PACK WHEN I SHOP THERE. AND THATS BECAUSE THOSE RATS ARE EATING IN FRENCH RESTURANTS WITH OUR MONEY.
