CAPS Rating:
**

The Company designs, develops and produces a line of women's apparel and accessories.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other players to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

Bebe Stores look to be in a bad niche right now with fashion trends which arent finding the hot spot in an already softer economy. I fully expect same store sales figures to continue to be weak and for Bebe's market position to weaken further. From a technical perspective it wouldnt take but a sneez...More

hovering within $1 of a 52 week low, zero debt to equity, consistent growth, consistently profitable and a dividend to boot. Lets give this one a shot and hope for the best.

In and enviroment where consumers are straped for money i do not see Bebe doing well. I asked around about this company with some shopers. They are telling me they styles are getting worse and worse and that they feel their clothing is a tad overpriced. Just dont see this one poping anytime soon.

The price of retail stocks varies inversely to the amount of love and hate expressed by analysts and pseudoanalysts...this applies to most stocks, and applies to ALL retail stocks.





Almost everyone hates retail now, and most of those hate BEBE.





Fact is they make money- tough environment or not. They have a BRAND and they don't have debt. Their customers don't trade down to Walmart or Dollar Stores- they may be buying a bit less right now, but they will buy- rebate checks or not.





The stock pays a dividend- not enough to jusitfy buying it on that alone, but an expression that despite mechandise misteps- which are inevitable in this business- management knows it has a BRAND.





Who knows where it trades tomorrow or next week. But surely, by the time these boards figure out that retail is not dead, and neither is BEBE, the stock will be North of 14 bucks. Which is about where why you should own this stock will be obvious and just before all the analysts genius types expalin why you should own it. See you there!!! And sooner than you think.
