Juicy fruit...

Probably too optimistic about this one, but I'm a big fan of Jamba Juice. I know they've set up shop in the Whole Foods near my house, but I never get it there. I only get it when I'm in New York. That's neither here nor there. They've experienced some growth since they started offering food a few months ago and I'm thinking 2010 will be a good year for what I'd consider to be the best of the bunch among the fruit smoothie circuit (suck it Trebeck, er, Robek's).

this is a great coverage... to get lots of PT score points, you have to go for the gold (see the PT Score page for explanation) and you've been talking about Jamba Juice for a while.

Finally in the black! Hopefully, people will grok how good this shit is once the weather starts to warm up. ;-)

Ian Hall said at 3/4/10 4:10 PM Price action was $2.08 +0.14 (+7.2%)

Rock on! I knew this would turn around for me at some point. Hopefully the new hot drinks will be decent and the stock price will continue its upward trajectory.

Josh Warner-Burke agreed at 3/25/10 10:15 AM Price action was $2.59 +0.24 (+10.2%)

Formula for success: you absolutely love some expanding chain of stores, but you know that most of the country has not heard of it or barely knows what it is.

Ian Hall said at 3/25/10 10:47 AM Price action was $2.64 +0.29 (+12.3%)

I've been loving this coverage lately...looking very good to hit the mark. This and IMAX were my two favorite *serious* picks and both are right on track. :-)

Mike Barkett said at 4/21/10 12:22 AM Price action was $3.40 +0.27 (+8.6%)

glad to see you making out on this pick. I wish I had bought in real life! I have been seeing JMBA's popping up everywhere and the stock is cheap.

Josh Warner-Burke said at 4/23/10 3:16 PM Price action was $3.55 +0.17 (+5.0%)

Starting to wonder if I am succumbing to the dangerous 'I've already missed out' mindset on this stock. I'd be pretty happy if I had bought on 3/25 when I said 'formula for success'. But maybe it's still a buy now.

Josh Warner-Burke said at 5/12/10 10:46 AM Price action was $3.24 +0.12 (+3.8%)

I am finding it maddening difficult to make money in this market. Jamba is on my list for something to buy the next time the market freaks out. Which could be tomorrow, next week, or not till next year...

Ian Hall said at 5/12/10 10:56 AM Price action was $3.24 +0.12 (+3.8%)

Probably would've sunk all of my impending $500 prize into it had the fuckup of last week occurred after I won it. I still think this will see $5.00 within a year or so.

Ashley Rice agreed at 5/17/10 9:38 PM and replied Price action was $3.57 +0.19 (+5.6%)

Re: Juicy fruit... and it's everywhere!
$5.50 (+52.1%) by 10/31/10
There are a million of these things popping up, and as Ian has said before, they are going to expand rapidly. Their stuff is better than Freshens, cheaper than Smoothie King, and just way cool! Not only am I covering the stock, I'm also a customer!

Josh Warner-Burke said at 6/11/10 10:21 AM Price action was $2.52 +0.18 (+7.7%)

One hell of a wild ride, this stock. Too bad I sold at the bottom.

Ian Hall said at 6/11/10 10:26 AM Price action was $2.52 +0.18 (+7.7%)

The juice is on the loose. Too bad my real life investment right now is a $500 loss on HMC and my damned accord or I'd be up a nice little bit on a wisely-timed buy of this very stock. Oy.

Ian Hall said at 6/14/10 11:39 AM Price action was $2.70 +0.19 (+7.6%)

YOU GO TO HELL! YOU GO TO HELL AND YOU DIE, JAMBA JUICE!

Mike Barkett said at 9/1/10 12:35 PM Price action was $1.83 0.04 (+2.2%)

yeah I been hanging on to some of this crap for a while. I really have no reason to be riding it to the sea floor right now, but I suppose the upside potential is pretty big.

Mike Barkett said at 1/24/13 12:05 PM Price action was $2.57 0.00 (+0.5%)

ultimately didn't turn out so great. :(

Ian Hall said at 1/24/13 4:07 PM Price action was $2.57 0.00 (+0.5%)

Aw, nuts! Still mad at JMBA for not growing as I thought it would.
