Dicks Sporting Goods Inc (DKS), Big 5 Sporting Goods Corporation (BGFV): Sporting-Goods Retailers You Should Look Into

Indeed, the company remodeled/relocated 89 stores during the first half of 2013. Its goal, to improve the profitability of the store base, appears to be a sound one. The company is on pace for a moderate earnings gain this year after growing sales and EPS nicely in 2012.

Foot Locker, Inc. (NYSE:FL)’s stock is another that has fallen sharply over the past couple of months. Accordingly, this may be a buying opportunity. The forward P/E is 10.8 times earnings per share. Furthermore, it also offers a nice dividend.

Conclusion
All of these retailers of sporting equipment and clothing are worth a look as three- to-five year investments. That said, the best opportunity is probably the first discussed, Dicks Sporting Goods Inc (NYSE:DKS). This is in light of its growing store base and increasing comparable-store sales.
