Test. 5 seconds. Say USANA then name a shape.
If the shape is a pyramid, you pass.

very sound products I have tried myself and well priced.
COmpany seems solid with high insider ownership and I know company business model too well to believe the already refuted rumours about accounting/stockoption enrichment issues.
At EPS of $2.3 $33 is pretty cheap given how unjustified the revenue and stock drop were.
Baby boomers aging will need lots of good nutritional supplements as they age and the AMA continues suggesting we take our vitamins and more health benefits are discovered alongside the weakness of our regular food.
My only regret: I missed buying at $24 by a few days when the falseness of accusations against USNA were already evident.

USANA's ratios show a lot of promise. The stock has dipped to one of it's all time lows but it's ratios have seemed to maintain their strength. Look for this stock to climb out of it's hole soon.

Sketchy people and crappy products surged on high volume Monday, while economists discussed the market's irrational exuberance.
I'm with old Specy-bear on this one. As Falkor the luckdragon might say while being ridden by Peter Griffin, "We're goin down"

USANA Health Sciences, Inc. (USANA) develops and manufactures science-based nutritional and personal care products. The Company operates through two business segments: Direct Selling and Contract Manufacturing. Under the direct selling segment, the Company sells products from two primary product lines: USANA Nutritionals, which includes supplements and functional foods, and Sense—beautiful science (Sense), a line of skin and personal care products. The Company distributes and sells its products through a network marketing system, a form of direct selling, using independent distributors that it refers to as Associates. It also sells its products directly to Preferred Customers who purchase the Company’s products for personal use and are not permitted to resell or distribute the products.
During the fiscal year ended December 29, 2007 (fiscal 2007) had 176,000 active Associates and 78,000 active Preferred Customers worldwide, which accounted for 87% and 13% of net sales, respectively.
Technical Analysis:
Gap up last May 13, 2008. Sellers entered the market but the price stayed. It seems overpriced. The price movement is not supported by volume. I think it is heading down in a week or days.

"We've long felt that the only value of stock forecasters is to make fortune tellers look good. Even now, Charlie and I continue to believe that short-term market forecasts are poison and should be kept locked up in a safe place, away from children and also from grown-ups who behave in the market like children."
