Generally and HANESBRANDS

I plan to revisit all equity holdings over the next few weeks, and I will also review multiple other stocks for purchase.

HBI-HANESBRANDS–Selling at 22.08.  I own a bunch through the office.  Performance over the last 52weeks is at -24%.  Short interest is at 8.45%…kinda high. Cap is at 8.32B.  P/E is 16.93.  Dividend yield is at 2%.  So we’re looking at like .44/year in dividends which is a good amount of their earnings: 1.30. Analysts are neutral to mixed negative.  Why?  I suppose this has to do with declining brick and mortar retail.  Book value is 3.14 and Price to book at 7.52…kinda high.  EPS growth expected at 11.74%.  Book grown last 5 is at 17.79.  Return on equity is really, really high.  That’s because they have all this debt…277%…omg.  So…let’s see.  Let’s do this by the book. I’d buy if it dips below 20
