Insider Buys
Apparel maker Warnaco Group (WRNC) has licenses and ownership of brands such as Calvin Klein, Speedo, Nautica and even Jennifer Lopez Lingerie. Four insiders have been buying $150,000 in shares and the stock is rising after touching briefly its 200 day moving average (seems the market overreacted to the sportswear group president's resignation and the earnings projections revised downwards - that means there is room for good surprises). If the economy recovers, retail should do well.
