BKE- 1/3/5 Total Return = 22%/165%/165%
Div yield = 1.9%

GES- 1/3/5 Total Return = <29.6%>/116%/<9.7%>
Div yield = 2.7%

Buckle has been around for many years. They own clothing brands such as: 7 for all mankind, Affliction, Alpinestar, Billabong, BCBG, Diesel, Dr. Martens, Fossil, Fox, Hurley, K-Swiss, Kenneth Cole, Lacoste, Lucky Brands, O'Neil, Puma, Quicksilver, True Religion and Volcom just to name a few.

As far as I know, BKE doesn't own those companies - they just retail those brands along side their own goods....

You are correct, I should have stated they retail/market those brands. :)

Thanks! Me too!

Good catch on the BKE post.... we don't want people going all over the place and buying stuff based on erroneous info!

I've been working on the Camaro all day so didn't do any research personally on that "name" --- and had not heard of it before.

:thumbsup:

yeah... and apple paid for the next one - not a bad tuesday. (I know - they're only up 10% overnight but with that cash on hand and that cash flow it wouldn't surprise me to see a div and a special div in the next 6 months). And you still have the upside that a div would give if and when they do announce it. I hate to buy at a peak but I might have to tomorrow. We had a nice bump today on a positive PR in an otherwise down market but it's a lot of hard work to get the message out.

not sure apple will ever pay a div. Ever since Steve took the company over they haven't made any donations to any charity. A company of that size and with that much wealth no Philanthropy.

James OLC 01-24-2012 07:01 PM

I guess I don't understand how a dividend relates to charity...
