+7.45%

I love PETS. I think this company is great. 25% return on assets, zero debt and a solid business model. The problem here is PETS is nearing a five year high on current share price. That price ceiling looks to be something that will hold this stock back and probably return it to the 13-15 range over the next 90 days. Now, the raw intrinsic value on this stock is about 30 bucks a share but I am going with technical indicators on this "short" pick. <> Overall, I think PETS is a great company but technically speaking I would wait and pick it up a little cheaper than current pric...

PetMed Express: Results Reaffirm Franchise's Strength
Last week, we explained why we think PetMed Express (PETS) is a fantastic franchise. We even went so far as to suggest that the company might meet Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A) Vice Chairman Charlie Munger's definition of a great business, the kind where an investor might be able to purchase, sit back, relax, and hold as net asset value per share increases over time. <>Not everyone agrees with this view for PETS. We understand that there are real risks with any business as <font>things can change</font>, whether through competition, creative destruction, and/or business model flaws. According to...

<>Over the past year, the Russell 2000 Index sank 39%, similar to the S&P500’s 41% decline. Over the past three months, the Russell’s decline of 15% is slightly worse than the S&P’s down 12% performance. However, from the lows of last fall, some small-cap names have moved higher, including j2 Global Communications (JCOM), PetMed Express (PETS), and VistaPrint (VPRT). The common thread among these companies is that they are non-cyclical and benefit from favorable secular growth trends. In addition, they have healthy net cash positions, limited to no debt, high returns on invested capit...
