What has really helped the quarter is very good sales because of El Nino. El Nino, is blamed for many things, but this time it can take credit for the boost in sales.
We believe that Hurricane Isabel could negatively impact September sales by approximately 0.5 to 1.0 percent. Retail stock prices have historically declined during hurricanes 54 percent of the time but usually recover quickly.
Until we receive more information from the company, we tentatively estimate the intrinsic value of Sears' stock at between $36 and $42 a share.
We believe that most retailers were in line or slightly above plan for the fourth week of December, boosted by pent-up demand caused by two snowstorms earlier in the month and the trend toward later buying in the Christmas season.
