Thursday Is All About…
Sack Lunch Productions, Inc. (symbol: SAKL)
Good Evening,
Get ready for SAKL because the company’s news profile makes it an ideal candidate for day and swing trades.
SAKL recently reported a 43% jump in first quarter revenues and issued another big update on May 8 when it confirmed that system wide sales in May totaled $1.945 million. If you are wondering why SAKL is reporting system wide sales it’s because it has a mix of operations in the entertainment space.
One of these is a subsidiary called Lantern Fest Productions, Inc. which has just signed a deal that will bring its festival event to 3 cities in Tokyo, Japan.
These developments paired with a strong chart setup are helping to fuel the company’s upside potential in the near term. Volatility levels have been good in recent weeks and this has pushed volume to a decent level.
SAKL is trading below its historical high and is just about finding its groove as it makes its way to higher RSI. A look at the chart will confirm to you just what SAKL is doing but suffice it to say, it’s an impressive looking uptrend.

Music Festival Industry Growing In Popularity Where Single Events Can Generate Millions
Multi-day music festivals in North America have gone from a handful to hundreds. As music festivals have gone mainstream, they’re reporting hundreds of millions of dollars in ticket sales and sponsorship revenue. The five biggest festivals combined grossed more than $183 million in ticket sales in 2014 not including sponsorships or merchandise, food and alcohol sales. Coachella grossed a record-breaking $78 million over just two weekends in 2014. Austin City Limits (ACL) made $38 million, Lollapalooza made $29 million, the Outside Lands Festival in San Francisco grossed $19 million and the Electric Daisy Carnival Festival in New Jersey made $7.2 million. More recently, the Stagecoach Country Festival in Southern California reported $18.5 million in revenue earlier this year.
In 2014, a staggering 32 million people attended at least one music festival according to Nielsen Music. Half of them (14.7 million) were Millennials, the most sought-after target demographic for sponsors (which explains the big-budget sponsorships at festivals). Nielsen Music also reported that the average festival attendee traveled 903 miles to attend a festival. Even if you consider that many fans fly to festivals, that’s a huge distance to travel for live music.
Major festivals like Coachella and Lollapalooza regularly sell out within hours of launching ticket sales. Last year, three-day passes to Lollapalooza sold out within one hour! But it’s not just the fans that love these events. Increasingly, musicians are choosing the festival circuit over touring on their own. Even popular bands like Modest Mouse and the Arctic Monkeys play at multiple festivals a year and claim to love it.
