Update on pawnshop operator EZ Corp (EZPW), originally recommended around $12 on March 23rd. As of Friday July 10th close it is now $16.36 having pre announced higher earnings for the quarter ended June 30th. Earnings are due out July 24th and there will be a conference call on the web. Unfortunately pawn shops are thriving in this very poor economy. This company seems to be a needle in the haystack of stocks which are suffering.
