Canada Goose – Buy the Growth or Short Fundamentals?
Canada Goose (GOOS-T) has been a hidden apparel gem these past few years for investors while other apparel companies have been pressured. Yesterday’s earnings announcement confirmed why investors love this stock: increased revenue, increased net earnings, and increased margins year over year. The company has an established consumer base that is willing to spend for a premium style product.
Upon the earnings release the company quickly opened up and gained more than 21% from the previous days trading price, hitting a new 52-week high of $95.58. How ever these gains would eventually pull back and see the company close up only 9.82% at $85.09 a share.

Painted Pony Energy
Shares of Painted Pony Energy Ltd (PONY:CA) have started to rise in recent weeks since hitting a 52-week low of $2.55 in late October.

Much of the company growth has occurred through leveraged buy outs in a hope to gain market dominance in the gaming industry.

Ahead of the ER: Sportsman Warehouse Holdings Inc.
Sportsman Warehouse Holdings Inc. (SPWH) is set to release earnings this Thursday, August 17 at the close of trading. Investors appear to be pricing in a disappointing earnings release (ER) as Dick’s Sportings Goods (DKS) reported earnings below analyst expectations.
As an investor you should always be concerned when peer competitors report disappointing earnings. But is this loss in shareholder value justified for Sportsman Warehouse Inc.? This would be my second time reviewing SPWH since early March when the shares continued trading lower to $4.00 before rallying over $6.00/share in early June.

Aimia Shares Enter Over Sold Territory
Shares of Aimia (AIM-T) traded as low as $1.49/share before closing at $1.53 on Wednesday. Air Canada (AC-T) released an announcement in mid May which stated they will be creating their own loyalty program and dropping the current partnership with Aeroplan rewards beginning in the year 2020. The Aeroplan program is owned and operated by Aimia. The decision for Air Canada to drop the Aeroplan rewards program has led to significant investor panic resulting in the shares plunging from over $9.00 to current levels not seen before.

Where Will NYX Gaming Go From Here?
Heading into Q3 2016 earnings I was expecting to see positive movement from NYX Gaming (ticker NYX.VN on the TSX Venture Exchange). Everything was looking good until the company released Q3 earnings November 15 which saw the stock pull back nearly 30% over the next few trading days and hitting a new 52 week low at $1.12. Since reaching new lows only a few weeks ago the company has recovered and now trades at $1.44. But many investors may be wondering where will NYX Gaming go from here?
