Timberland Seeing Strong Volume Increase (TBL)

The Timberland Company

is up today, gaining 7 cents to $26.01, a gain of 0.27%, but on heavy volume. This is potentially the start of institutional investors moving into the name, and is something to watch over the next few weeks of 2010, and into 2011. Brian Sozzi, of Wall Street Strategies recently made Timberland a top pick of his, as he was positive on the boot sector, and said that Timberland should benefit as consumers look to buy more boots to replace old ones and enhance their wardrobes. The Timberland Company engages in the design, development, marketing, and distribution of footwear, apparel, and accessories products for men, women, and children.
