Deckers Outdoor Corp. (NASDAQ) DECK
This week's stock is the marketer of the hugely popular UGG boots and Teva sandals. The company has
been showing some "monster" growth in earnings and sales and may be ready to make a big run higher.
The graph below shows both quarterly earnings and sales increases for the last 5 quarters. Notice the rapid acceleration in earnings in the last two quarters. This is extremely positive. Sales are also accelerating.
A weekly chart is showing a "Base on Base" chart pattern with a possible buy point of 56.27 (ten cents above the previous high (marker "A"). The last 2 full weeks have shown some nice accumulation on above average volume (marker "B").
