I've written on Helen Of Troy (HELE)
plenty of times over the years, and it has long been a great stock for
writers and stock pickers because it's quite a bit more volatile than

pretty good record of delivering high single-digit returns on capital
and acquiring under-developed brands/businesses that thrive with a
little more direct attention.
Right now, the company is having a
