Great Moments in Lemon History

lululemon athletica announces that same-store revenues will be higher than expected. The street had anticipated a growth rate (YOY) in the teens, but the Co notes strong volume and a strong Canadian dollar, then guides the street to a rate in the 30s. The stock moves from $41 to $47 in one session on 5.6 million shares — the heaviest trading since the IPO debut.

In anticipation of the Wachovia Consumer Growth Conference, LULU zooms for a second day in a row. The stock gains more than $6 to an all-time high of $53.70 (13.5%) on 3.1 million shares.
