Downthumb. Huge debt. Poor balance sheet. Slow growth rate. Reduced guidance.

There are a lot of fat people out there and this is the most reliable weight loss program out there. Decent dividend, but management doesn't own very much stock.

I am just taking some points off the short squeeze. This stock looks pretty good to me. I may buy on the dips.

This is one of the only diet plans that is well proven to work, and sustainable. A great company.

H.L.Mencken said no one ever went broke underestimating the taste of the American public. Add "for fried food" between "taste" and "of", and WTW is a money pump.

This hit a 52 week over the last trading day and bounced up a bit.
This is a play on the fattening of America. Looking at their over financial high points, they seem to be doing pretty well. There is also very high insider holdings, which is always a good thing.

Obesity in America coupled with WeightWatcher's extremely proven, simplified diet plan make for huge upside. My wife is on their plan using their Internet points tracking system and it's phenomonal. Buybacks signaling high confidence in current stock price.

A unique "product" (meetings) even in the crowded world of weight loss. Tons of customers as society tells women at every opportunity they are overweight. Lots of repeat customers. Ironic. 68% owned by insiders. CEO Huett's compensation at $1.2 million and has exercised $4.1M in options with $9.7M left to exercise. Seems like she has a good stake in the company doing well. Just a few of my very few bits and pieces here. I have faith in the company.

Market leader, huge share repurchase and an ability to weather a down market. Great long term buy, but keep an eye on the new CEO.

People keep getting fatter in this country and weight watchers has survived the diet fads. People also do seem successful as long as they keep on a diet of WTW branded products.
