5 Stocks for the Michelle Obama Effect

Stock #1: Talbots (TLB)

If ever a brand could use a boost it’s Talbots (TLB).

This conservative women’s clothing store has lacked the pizzazz to capture a larger market share. Michelle Obama wearing TLB
injects some much needed life into the brand.

After the election, when it was known that Mrs. Obama wore TLB, shares bounced significantly. Previously, the stock was threatening
to broach the $1 mark. Today, you can buy shares for around $5.

Perhaps a new generation of buyers will find TLB to be “cool conservative.” If the Obama effect has any legs, this stock could
see a tremendous boost.
