It's overpriced. Less than a year ago it was 70.00. What was it when they bought Indian?

Closer to 50 back then. I wasn't in the position to move $ over then...

 

While we've debated that they are overpriced, they went up over 1.17% which is more than most people are getting in their CDs or checking accounts over a period of a year. Their P/E is high, but Value Line has them going up to $135 over the next few years...

 

No doubt they will continue to go up as the Indian launch gets closer. After they start shipping.. me personally.. I'll take a deep breath, hard look at them and see what to do with the stock

Most of our cards played out a long time ago. Still, it is interesting info. Thanks.

I would hope most have $ in their 401k, IRA etc that can be moved around to make a few bucks on this?

What goes up must come down. The debut of Indian may give it a bump, but for how long? Bubble gotta bust. Indian may be the needle if it flops.

True .. which is why we sell when necessary :)

 

Of course, you could always Short the stock, and buy us all bikes with the profits? :)

Polaris officials did a fair amount of gushing as they released the companys second-quarter earnings results Tuesday. But they were far more pumped about the upcoming relaunch of the Indian Motorcycle brand, set for Aug. 3. at the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in South Dakota.

We expect to generate significant dealer and consumer excitement and orders in the months ahead, CEO Scott Wine told analysts during a conference call Tuesday. It is going to be interesting over the next six to eight months.

Strong demand for the iconic brand, once considered a rival to Harley-Davidson, prompted Polaris Industries to boost its earnings guidance for the full year. Already, the Medina-based company has built 300 of the redesigned bikes so it will be ready to accept orders.

Polaris bought the 112-year-old company in 2011 and has since invested millions expanding factories to accommodate the return of the nearly defunct bike.

Polaris is usually a little bit more conservative about your product launches. It sounds like you are excited. And it sounds like you could pick up more market share, Citigroup analyst Greg Badishkanian told Polaris executives Tuesday.

In addition to the launch, Polaris expects improved profit margins in its Parts, Garments and Accessories unit to bolster its earnings performance for the full year.

Day trade that shit from now til about 2 days after the reveal. Then sell it all until the stock finds it's "real" value.

My guess is she will hit 110 by the reveal...theN drop back closer to upper 90s ......then creep up over the span of the quarter upwards of $120..... $130 next year... Once the hype dies down and it drops down to a realistic number (90--100) in. Week or so, should be a great long term stock to own/hold. IMHO

A hard core day trader would sell at the end of every day...and buy back around 10 am every day. You could potentially make serious $. Just check the charts. It's like clockwork (btw...I'm not)

Have to figure out what percentage Indian makes up Polaris' portfolio. from what i've seen, it's a blip on their map that could grow. their upwards hike in stock price over the last years has had less to do with Indian than it has responsible business practises throughout the company and a steady growth in all their division.

Remember: The best way to become a millionaire in the motorcycle industry is to start off with two million in your pocket.

I agree. Polaris is a well-run and profitable company even without the motorcycles. Plus, investors love Polaris these days and that helps a lot.

That's the kicker.. this stock has migrated upwards on it's own, with the moto' business. Now, it's now on steoroids. I believe there will be a correction, but .. that is why one puts a Stop Loss in place for selling to protect themselves..

Agreed.. I've seriously debated the option of owning ./ operating an Indian Dealership this year... Decided to funnel funds into PII instead ... less stress, more immediate upside,... but .. still .. crosses my mind ..

I would be careful with money in stock period. We are heading for an implosion. Any logical person has to come to that conclusion. Stocks like Polaris that are basically frill and luxury items will be hit the hardest. When that implosion will come is the riddle. I made a bunch of money in the market and I almost (did) lose my ass by not accepting the obvious signs. I thought I could ride it forever. Wrong. Like I said before, for every stock you just can't wait to buy, there is another guy out there who can't wait to unload it. It is a very delicate balance that has little to do with the real value of a stock or a company. It is raw emotion and fear or confidence. If something comes along and upsets this little apple cart, and the sellers start to outweigh the buyers by a moderate margin, it is ugly. Very ugly. Trust me on this one. We (humans) behave like a herd of antelope. We run around in large numbers, knowing that some of the herd will be eaten by lions, but we think it will always be the other antelope that gets eaten. The antelopes in the stock market that aren't eaten are the super rich. Unless you are one of them, you have no protection from the lions. In fact the super rich feed you to the lions so the lions won't eat them. Kinda like a sacrifice. Think about it. it's true. How's that for an analogy?

A good one... And I agree.

 

I saw folks get mauled during the dot com implosion. I finally recovered from the '08 fiasco

That being said....Polaris is riding the wave. And is about to create more. Just need to be aware of low tides and rocks beneath the surface

Righteous times dude:)
