Here's a good one: Pep Boys. Pep Boys has done quite well over the last few years, expanding stores to over 35 states (16% growth this year alone). Next year, 20% more stores to open. S&P wrote them up as a buy. Value Line wrote them up very favorably. Seems that alot of the newer cars (especially the expensive utility vehicles) will be needing repairs and parts (Had a very bad winter back east...is catching up to the 4x4s). New car sales are down...more people maintaining thier older cars. Pep Boys offers both parts-only stores (Parts USA) as well as full service stores that offer everything from installation of tires, shocks, exhaust, to sales-only of those parts (~26,000) that stores such as Track Auto offer. Pep Boys katers to the consumor, back-yard mechanic, as well as the professional mechanic. All these factors combine into a very intersting play that, I believe, will reward well. Pep Boys is timely, inexpensive (I just bought in at $35, 52 week high ~38), and low risk. Anyone wish to add to this thread? Reasons to buy? Reasons not to buy? PRB | ||||||||||||||
