Collective Brands does better-than-expected

After the adjusted third quarter which was on Thursday, shares of the shoe retailer Collective Brands, topped expectations.  The stock advanced $1.75, or 8.7 percent, to $21.96, after touching a 52-week high of $22.07.

 

Oprah Winfrey made an offer on a recent show, that made half-off coupons available through the following day to Payless ShoeSource shoppers on all purchases, and this is believed to have helped Collective Brands tremendously.
