Stockpickr Staff	When asked about retailer Aeropostale (ARO), Cramer said he was wrong to lump this company with the likes of American Eagle Outfitters (AEO) and Abercrombie & Fitch (ANF) in a recent sell recommendation. He said that Aeropostale is a much better company and is worthy of owning.

barrons3	Positive - Price 13.08 on April 6 by Susquehanna Financial Group AEO [is being] proactive in [its] efforts to drive shopper conversion and traffic...such as buy-one, get-one-50%-off shorts and scarves and tops -- precisely what shoppers are gravitating toward...AEO has broadly increased hard markdowns, reflective of the challenging environment and higher inventory levels....Management estimated that the later Easter holiday will have a negative March-comp [comparative-store sales] drag of roughly 500 basis points. AEO guided 1Q09 earnings per share to [a range of] 4 cents to 7 cents. Our forecast is 5 cents (versus 21 cents), a year-over-year decline of 76%. Market cap: $2.5 billion.	Love	April 11, 2009

barrons3	Last on the list was American Eagle Outfitters (AEO). Cramer said this retailer has a clean balance sheet and has increased promotions to drive shoppers back to its stores. The earnings estimates have come down so fast, said Cramer, that the company will be hard pressed not to surprise to the upside.	Love	December 26, 2008
barrons3	Teen apparel chains have taken a beating this year from skeptical investors; Abercrombie & Fitch is down more than 70%, to 22.84, while American Eagle Outfitters has fallen 53%, to 9.81. Yet both companies have net cash -- Abercrombie's $198 million and American Eagle's $269 million. David Berman, manager of Durban Capital, a New York hedge fund, prefers American Eagle because its fashions are less pricey -- a plus, these days, for teens and parents. Abercrombie's same-store sales fell 28% in November, compared with a far more modest decline of 11% at American Eagle. Berman warns that both are likely to miss earnings estimates this year.

barrons3	Abercrombie is getting squished, says Karen Finerman. Their clothing is fairly expensive and people just don’t have the money. If you’re looking for a trade you might want to get long rival American Eagle [AEO] and short Abercrombie (ANF).	Love	November 19, 2008

barrons2	Check out American Eagle American Eagle Outfitters, says Karen Finerman. Chairman Jay Schottenstein recently bought a lot of stock in his company, and that intrigues me. Typically insiders buy for one reason, she explains, because they think their stock is going higher.	Love	March 12, 2008

barrons2	Witmer: American Eagle's balance sheet should have about $5 a share in cash and no debt as of year end. Using only a 12 to 13 multiple, plus the cash, gets us a price target of over 30.	Love	January 19, 2008
