I laid out the Crocs (CROX) case here. This is a very debated stock, and there has been some scuttlebutt of late regarding gross margins dropping to mid 50s from 60% - never a great thing but with this pace of expansion and necessary overhead it doesn't surprise me. I expect the name to remain controversial as even the devil and angel on opposing shoulders argue on this one...
I believe the latest controversy is a case of someone's Crocs getting caught in an escalator in the Far East. Personally, I call this Darwinism, but then again I am a cold hearted capitalist ... ;) I believe shoe laces could also be considered a threat on escalators so please sell all shoe related holdings if this is indeed the reason for 'today's' panic.
