Lululemon's Growing Pains

Updated

The following video is from Friday's Motley Fool Money roundtable discussion, in which host Chris Hill, and analysts James Early, Ron Gross, and Charly Travers take a look back at the most influential investing stories of the week.

Shares of lululemon athletica were down this week after the retailer pulled its popular black yoga pants from the shelves after it realized the pants were too sheer. When asked about the fabric on a conference call with analysts, CEO Christine Day said that the only way to know is "to put on the pants and bend over." Should investors be worried about the company's quality control? In this installment of Motley Fool Money, our analysts talk about the future of the embattled retailer.


Lululemon has the potential to grow its sales by 10 times if it can penetrate its other markets like it has in Canada; but, without question, the competitive landscape is starting to increase.
