Cabela's, Inc. (CAB)

CAPS Rating:
****

The Company is a direct marketer, and a specialty retailer, of hunting, fishing, camping and related outdoor merchandise.

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.

The stock has been absolutely slaughtered, and I can't figure out why. I worried that they were expanding their stores too quickly and picking up too much debt to expand, but they've now slowed down their expansion removing the single biggest worry I had. Despite the tough economy, the company is still making a good hunk of change, and if a company can weather tough times so well, I'm looking very forward to seeing how well they do when the good times return!

Cabela's has a long loyal customer base. I like their mail order and catalog business. The new stores are big and very expensive as the stores are designed like a museum to attract customers. This is a good marketing tool in my opinion, but Cabela's could have made their stores smaller, hence, to open more stores to penetrate the specialty market better. I believe Cabela's has growth potential in the future if they would scale down their store size and continue to open new stores in the right designations. I think hunting and fishing is a passion that I believe people will spend their disposable income regardless of the market, but to the extent to pay for the recent new stores may be a near term problem.

Disposible income is way down, Unlikely shopping at specialty retailers for diversified products such as apparel will continue. Numerous compettors are taking chunks out of various audiences targeted by Cabelas: IE Bass Pro shops, Sports Goods stores, etc...Strong branding and private labeling will keep margins decent, but not much growth should be expected.

Finally at a price where I can get behind this stock (on CAPS at least). I don't actually think this store will hurt with the economy as much as people think. With the economy suffering people are going to spend less money on vacation and more money on things they can do in an immediate location. Cabela's provides just those things. Don't expect too much of a downturn from here. I'd pull the trigger at or near $10.50 for a real account.
