Halloween Scare

Hansen Natural Corp (HANS) is the one stock Jim would pick for his Halloween show if he had to pick one. This is a haunted house stock and he told us probably a lose your money stock. A momentum stock that has lost its momentum is just about as scary as it gets. These do not usually come back from the dead and this beverage maker has nothing proprietary to help. Today he performed a blind taste test sampling HANS drinks and all of them taste the same so it is time to sell. They have a “totally undifferentiated product.” They try to make premium drinks at premium prices but there is nothing premium about HANS’ drinks according to Jim. You need to be out before they report the next quarter. Bulls are even worried about this stock now and Jim doubts the energy drinks can save them stating, “it is only a matter of time before the medical companies start turning on these guys.” He believes that energy drinks are a fad. HANS got its “head chopped” and it has only gone up two points so the time to get out is now. A caller questioned Tootsie Roll Industries (TR) and Jim said to get out of TR because it is at the top and get into Hershey Company (HSY) due to the company being at the bottom.
