As for WTSLA and PSUN being "in", I disagree. PSUN doesn't know who their customer is anymore and it shows, in both their merchandising and sales. Sales reports show PSUN is bleeding customers and, I believe, only holding on to its remaining ones because of aggressive pricing. WTSLA is not much better with similar sales trends at its namesake, although its Arden B chain at least is doing better.

I agree BKE is doing well, but, again, pointing this out after their sales have been growing at a double-digit rate for two years now is not only useless, its dangerous. Sales have been so strong for so long, I worry that it is inevitable they slow at some point. With men's sales down last month, I would be particularly wary right now.]]>
