People�� tastes and preferences keep changing with the changing times. So was the case with the footwear industry, when Crocs��(CROX) fancy and new style shoes took over the market. Customers became highly fascinated with the new style of resin-molded shoes which came in a variety of bright colors. It became a fashion statement. However, a few years later, this fascination started to fade away as customers got bored of the same old style. Crocs��footwear became tacky for the same lot of customers. This resulted in sharp decline in the retailers��revenue.
Therefore, the company is still struggling to overcome the after effects of the situation. But this time Crocs wanted to differ. Its recently reported second quarter results were ahead of the Street�� estimates, enabling its share price to move north.
Numbers accompanied with restructuring plans
The footwear retailer�� revenue inched up slightly to $363.8 million from $376.9 million in last year�� quarter. The top line was higher than the analysts��estimate of $372.8 million. Even the bottom line was higher than the estimates, clocking in at $0.36 per share. However, this was lower than the prior year�� EPS of $0.48 per share.

Even though China is not posting double-digit economic growth like it did before, shipping (NYSE: SEA), natural gas (NYSE: UNG) and coal (NYSE: KOL) should all fear the way the leadership is positioning the country.

We recently added small cap coal stock�Alpha Natural Resources, Inc (NYSE: ANR) to our SmallCap Network Elite Opportunity (SCN EO)�portfolio as a short-term position despite the fact it has underperformed the Market Vectors-Coal ETF (NYSEARCA: KOL) along with President Obama�� ��ar on coal.��And while you might be leery of betting on a coal stock with almost four years left for the current administration to wield power, but there is a good reason why investors in small cap coal stocks like Alpha Natural Resources could be rewarded.

Basic guidelines
In this series, I examine inventory using a simple rule of thumb: Inventory increases ought to roughly parallel revenue increases. If inventory bloats more quickly than sales grow, this might be a sign that expected sales haven't materialized. Is the current inventory situation at Accuride (NYSE: ACW ) out of line?

Trailing-12-month revenue decreased 14.3%, and inventory decreased 30.5%. Comparing the latest quarter to the prior-year quarter, the story looks decent. Revenue dropped 28.6%, and inventory dropped 30.5%. Over the sequential quarterly period, the trend looks healthy. Revenue grew 9.2%, and inventory dropped 6.1%.
