    I doubt they are that concerned after over 20% increase in revenue.

    Not when you do not meet shareholder expectations, UA relies on brick and mortar stores that are secondary sellers. UA will have to invest in their own stores and that increases the stakes and investment.

    It's just business ladies and gentleman, not that I agree with UA's decision, nor do I think posting something such as a spear hunt on an open source social media account such as you tube is a good idea either, but we all have to understand one thing about corporate america in todays day and age. Money makes the world turn, and with only a small portion of UA's monetary compensation coming from hunting we get to learn an age old saying that corporate america lives by today. (the needs of the many out weigh the needs of the few)

    I think this was a knee jerk reaction from someone in UA's camp in an effort to try and clean up what has been a failure in their hunting line. UA is either going to benefit from this decision, or not benefit from this decision. Considering that not all decisions in corporate America today are good ones I would imagine that someone is going to fall on his or her sword eventually.

    At 19 bucks a share all I can say is I love bad news. I will be buying more. I think it's great S and P trashed their credit today. They aren't going anywhere except back up. It's a longer play but one I will be making.

    I think you'd be making a mistake on buying shares. Look at the companies 1 year and even 5 year scale and is falling faster than the temps around here. Brick and mortar is dead and in the next 10 years I think it's going to be extinct.

    With their international sales increase I wouldn't be worried.

    Maybe but I"ll take my chances. Over the years I have seen so many good stocks get trashed only to come back and make money. Buying on upward momentum is boring, I love these plays.

    You know what’s in my portfolio? I don’t care about UA anymore than I do Netflix, Boeing etc. I’m happy your concerned about my finical well being. But since you brought up UA they are looking interesting in the $10 range.
