If the markets get traction, could see a nice bounce. $MAT also introduced 2 new barbies, blind Barbie and the first Black Barbie with Down syndrome.

  • debeers: $MAT-Barbie put herself up for sale.
    Some guy will think to himself: With that hair and those legs, she could be Indian feather or Indian dot or Oriental or Black. or a brunette or Blonde.
    Here's what i think: there is a cadre of folks who cannot re ...

    And welcome back, Scottrades! I'm delighted that you survived the water park; being of an occasionally macabre bent, I always amused myself estimating the number of germs floating around along with the kiddies. Lady DeBeers admirably summarized the ...
  • Forexpro: @Momentariness $BBW LOL, Momentariness, As long as Moms are looking for birthday party ideas for their toddlers, this one might be able to survive. I'm pretty much immune to the place's charms, but back in the day - about two decades ago, when my daughters were age-appropriate - they were quite popular with my town's kids. The one that killed me was American Girl, now owned by $MAT. It's almost cheaper to have an actual kid; I'm surprised Mattel hasn't set up a university that charges real-life tuition. Don't forget the sorority dues! Thanks for reminding me about this atrocity. I wouldn't have wagered that they were still around, either. Hope you're thriving; all the best!

  • JosephM: $MAT..somone bought a ton of Dec 11 weekly $15.50 calls. News forthcoming?
  • Yuls: $MAT near big resistance level of $14.88 again, couldnt break it since March 2019, and was just promoted on CNBC.... Watching
  • lostsheep: @Yuls $MAT Christmas is coming
  • Yuls: $MAT broke out, lets see if holds
  • just4mo: @Yuls $MAT broke above 200 week quite the move since march
  • JosephM: $MAT..just came to post and SMM is all over it. Thoughts?
  • Yuls: $MAT is trying to BO again, failed miserably this morning
  • Yuls: @Yuls $MAT if it consolidates for a few days here more chance it might shoot upward
  • jschibal: @Yuls $MAT - If it had high volume today, I would take a position, but volume is quite low. Nice chart though.
  • CraigReynolds: $MAT BO of weekly and up on daily. Bought some Oct 12 calls for $.50 as my spec trade for the week. Time will tell, not much risk with buying small.
  • scottrades: @PhilHarmonic $MAT Ha! What a time to be alive.
  • scottrades: $MAT Up 20% After Hours after a solid Earnings report.
  • PhilHarmonic: @scottrades $MAT Solid earnings means they lost less then they were projected to lose and their revenues were greater then what analysts predicted. What a crazy world we live in.

  • traderbren: $MAT - proved to be a nice short following Friday's drop. Covered this morning. NP.
  • DrScience: $MAT broken on guidance. halted. $HAS falling from volatility squeeze on the news.
  • bRobert: @DrScience $MAT $HAS I stopped playing with toys.........never ;)
  • bRobert: @DrScience $MAT $HAS I don't like stocks that toy with me.
  • Wolf: @DrScience $MAT $HAS Wish I were long 16 today puts. 10X. I am surprised they announced during market hours.
  • Brian_M: $MAT bought a starter position today at $15.84. It is sitting on the 50/200 day MA. Needs to tighten up a bit, but I like the setup and the seasonality should help. Giving it some room and placing a stop at $14.90. Been trading around $15/16 for about a year, so any positive news could really move it.
  • DrScience: $MAT not having a good day. Could go either way from here, but I think money isn't the only thing flowing out of the stock.
  • Iceman: $MAT #CoveredCalls – Sold MAT Jul 20 2018 25.0 Calls @ 0.65 with the stock at 17.75

  • gwenzee: $HAS $MAT Because Toys "R" Us is filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy you will probably see Hasbro and Mattel down in sympathy. Retailers are having a tough time with Amazon controlling so much in that space. And what about all the Real Estate that these companies own? Your thoughts welcome.
  • tejas7: @gwenzee $HAS $MAT Hazmat suit needed
  • gwenzee: $HAS $MAT Could be even more toxic??? How low can they go? Took a little liberty with HAZMAT.
  • lostsheep: $HAS $MAT - So no one will ever buy a toy again? Burgermeister Meisterburger must be in town. Maybe not from Toys R Us, Buying opp if not just for a trade? Santa Claus is coming soon.
  • gwenzee: @lostsheep $HAS $MAT Toys are always a good seller especially around Christmas. But, people are going to AMZN not to the stores as they once did.
  • debeers: $HAS/$MAT-If you insist on being in this space, at least be in the better of the 2 which is $HAS.
  • debeers: @lostsheep $HAS $MAT -$HAS is the one if you are to be in this space. Christmas hasn't been cancelled.
  • Bridget: $MAT seeing some selling rhrn. Looks to be breaking out of this tight consolidation tothe downside. 50DMA is still acting as overhead resistance.
  • traderbren: @Bridget $MAT - came back pretty quickly. NP, but interesting to see the buyers come in to take it off the bottom.
  • Bridget: @traderbren $MAT yeah, now it's a triple bottom. Still in the channel. Would need a break above the 50dma before I would be bullish.
  • Wolf: $MAT Phase 2, or just wide range consolidation? Up 3.8% today.
  • Bridget: @Wolf $MAT This stock is in a downtrend. I would want to see if break above $31.50 before I would be interested in going bullish or buy it closer to the 20MA for a swing trade.
  • Wolf: @Henry $mat Thanks. I don't pay much attention to twitter, but maybe I should.
  • traderbren: $MAT -- with all the talk of retail, $MAT has buying interest. NP.
  • mharps: $mat strong move but earnings on Jan 18 and resistance at the 200 (daily) , I have a starter and like the dividend-(if it keeps paying)-this was on volume so we'll see.
  • Wolf: @mharps $mat Yahoo and Fidelity show earnings on 1/30 after market close. I don't see any news to account for the 5.7% move today. Have been holding a medium position for the mainly for the dividend.
  • Henry: @Wolf $mat TWTR is my source to explain the unexplained. Mattel introduced an Amazon Echo-type smart home assistant aimed at children at CES as well as a smart baby monitor.
  • traderbren: $MAT -- might be worth a trade as its back above the 50 dma and getting a bid on the intraday.
  • Bridget: @janner0814 $MAT #BUCS This stock is just trading sideways. Did you have a question?

  • Wolf: @Iceman $MAT $HAS #ShortPuts #Earnings Looks good so far. $2 above my strike.

  • Bridget: $MAT breaking down below the 200MA. Head and shoulders pattern on the weekly that has just recently been confirmed. Moving averages turning over. I think this is a good shorting candidate.

  • Thunder_Struck: $MAT Mattel, Fuhu Move Closer to Sale -- Market Talk 18 hours 19 minutes ago - DJNF 17:35 ET - Children's tablet-maker Fuhu is nearing a solid sale deal with Mattel (MAT), and a truce with lender Tennenbaum Capital. Both will be necessary if the kid-tech business is to survive bankruptcy. Persuaded Mattel is serious about a buyout, Tennenbaum agreed to loosen its grip so Fuhu can fill holiday orders in the coming weeks, at least some of them. Fuhu's low on inventory, after a fight with contract manufacturer Foxconn, and its website says it's out of stock on many items.
