Duel Flashback: Pixar
You've got a friend in Pixar <% if gsSubBrand = "aolsnapshot" then Response.Write("(Nasdaq: PIXR)") else Response.Write("(Nasdaq: PIXR)") end if %> -- or not. Shares of the computer animation specialist have fluttered around like A Bug's Life's Francis, the male ladybug with an attitude.
Rick Munarriz (TMF Edible) and Bill Barker (TMF Max) were the bull and bear as the insect-laden Flik flick hit the theaters just before Thanksgiving. Six months later, like a molting caterpillar, the stock had fallen by 9%.
Our Foolish Voters, who sided with Rick, barely missed making the mark this time. Oh, well, Toy Story 2 cometh.
Victory? Bill Barker. Congrats!
