Back to back days with 30%+ moves in the retail space. Today it's $ANF with a 30%+ move higher. This wasn't supposed to happen in the age of "alt data" and credit card panels. Instead, single stock vol in the retail space is higher than ever. Market structure is a big part of it (See my 5 "P"s" rubric). However, in this case you can't help but wonder how alt data is driving EXTREME levels of group think in individual stocks. One thing is certain, $ANF is a trader's delight, if you can get it right....

I’ll be studying the following Delta Sheets: $NSYS - another one of those never ending - “just wait for it, change is coming soon!” - stories. Anyways.. mentions data centers as an opportunity + has defense & medical device angles. Selling near book. $USIO - some smart investors seem to like this payment processing turnaround.
