As the second-quarter reporting cycle gets underway, investors would look to add stocks that have the potential to surpass earnings expectations in the quarter. This is because an earnings beat generally leads to stock price appreciation.
Barnes & Noble, Inc. (BKS): Book It?
Excellent point on the comparison between $BKS and $BBY.
Barnes & Noble, Inc. (BKS): Book It?
I heard that too, but I think they are supposed to be more like Apple Stores - specifically to sell their hardware like Amazon tablets, Amazon TV, Amazon phones, etc. Not books. So as the author said, that give B&N and edge. $BKS $AMZN $AAPL
Barnes & Noble, Inc. (BKS): Book It?
#Amazon started out as a book seller only. It's growth exploded once the company diversified. Why doesn't B&N do that also? Additionally, I believe I heard that Amazon is going to open brick and mortar stores, won't that be a major threat to B&N? $BKS $AMZN
Barnes & Noble, Inc. (BKS): Book It?
That's an excellent point Jonathan Caplan, a very similar situation indeed. And the fact that B&N was the only major book seller to survive should only strengthen the company $BKS $AMZN.
Barnes & Noble, Inc. (BKS): Book It?
Yes, some good points here worth digesting. I agree with Mitch Reynolds that B&N will never be the next #Amazon $AMZN. But that just gives credence to Jonathan Caplan's case that $BKS may be getting overlooked and could be an undervalued stock. I'll be giving it a deeper look.
Barnes & Noble, Inc. (BKS): Book It?
The question is can investors make money on $BKS right now and I believe the author made his case that the answer is yes.
Barnes & Noble, Inc. (BKS): Book It?
That's a valid point Mitch. I have some friends who go to Barnes & Noble to peruse books, then order them from #Amazon right from their mobile devices, and get that same book later in the day. $BKS $AMZN
Barnes & Noble, Inc. (BKS): Book It?
I just don't see how $BKS can ever hope to compete with power houses such as #Amazon. Barnes & Noble has much higher costs due to having to maintain brick and mortar stores. And now that $AMZN is offering same day delivery on many items, they are eating away at one of the few competitive advantages that $BKS could offer - getting items right away.
