		<description><![CDATA[Following a mixed third quarter 2012 from one of the leading designer, marketer and distributor of premium lifestyle products, Polo Ralph Lauren Corporation (RL), we retain our long-term Neutral recommendation on the stock. In the third quarter, Polo’s earnings per share of $1.78 reflected a 3% growth from $1.72 earned in the year-ago period. Quarterly earnings also surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.67 per share. The earnings beat in the quarter reflected a decline in shares outstanding as against last year. Polo Ralph Lauren&#8217;s net revenues climbed 16.6% year over year to $1,805.6 million in the quarter, which however fell short of the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1,768.0 million. Solid quarterly performance prompted management to lift its revenue growth guidance for fiscal 2012 to 20%, instead of the high-teen ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[An economy plagued by financial crisis and high unemployment remains a bitter truth, but relentless efforts to emerge from these doldrums cannot be ignored. The ongoing turmoil has also touched J. C. Penney Company Inc. (JCP), which has seen its crests and troughs through the year despite trying every means to tide over a distressed economy. Dismal Sales Numbers J. C. Penney has been losing its foothold in the market as it struggles against retail chains such as Macy’s Inc. (M) and Kohl’s Corporation (KSS). It has been witnessing falling comparable-store sales since the last four months. Comps declined 1.9% in August, 0.6% in September, 2.6% in October and 2% in November. Between January and November 2011, comparable-store sales fell as low as 2.6% (in October) and rose as high ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[J.C. Penney Company Inc. (JCP) recently raised its third-quarter 2009 earnings outlook on the back of better-than-expected September sales results. The retailer now expects third-quarter earnings in the range of 3 cents to 10 cents a share, up from its previous guidance range of a loss of 5 cents to profit of 5 cents a share. The company’s comparable-store sales for the month of September 2009, dipped 1.4% compared to a fall of 12.4% reported in the same month last year. The comps for the reported month fared better than the company’s guidance range of a 3.0% to 6.0% decline predicted earlier. Year-to-date comps slid 7.5% compared to a fall of 6.6% posted in the same period last year. J.C. Penney expects comparable store sales to dip in the range ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Considering the Consequences of Consumer Credit Contracting Yesterday the Federal Reserve announced that consumer credit contracted by a much larger than expected $21.5 billion in July, and that the contraction in June was larger than previously thought. Consumer credit is broken down into two major types: revolving (mostly credit cards) and non-revolving (personal loans, auto loans etc). Real estate-backed debt (aka mortgages) are not included in this report. The decline in total credit was at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 10.4%, with revolving credit down at an 8.0% rate and non-revolving at an 11.7% rate. Given the success of the &#8220;Cash for Clunkers&#8221; program, the decline in non-revolving credit is pretty shocking. It marks a very distinct acceleration to the downside. In the second quarter, non-revolving credit was contracting ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There&#8217;s a Bull Sneaking Around Quietly, there has been a bull sneaking around the markets over the past three weeks. The S&#38;P 500 index (.INX) technically began a new uptrend on November 20. By climbing 20% from its low on the 8th to the 20th it became a new bull market by definition. The shortest bull markets for the S&#38;P lasted only 24 days. With today, we are up to 22. To cancel this uptrend, the S&#38;P would have to drop by 20% from its high. So until it hits 727.80 we&#8217;ll remain in an uptrend. Interestingly enough, some of the biggest movers supporting this drive have been from the consumer discretionary spending sector.
