Lululemon’s North American sales, margins and legging demand are falling as Alo and Vuori gain share, leaving its brand moat and depressed valuation in question.

Continue to believe that expiration this week will be the culmination in the software squeeze. Money will want to come off the table ahead of earnings season for the sector, and I think that will be followed with an acknowledgment from earnings that while their revenues are not at risk today - these companies still do face increased competition, lower barriers, higher costs for cloud/inference, and seat based model problems that will be challenging moving forward. The $WDAY rumor news was not the floor, it was the peak counter narrative to AI disruption.

Impressive just how many healthcare companies with no direct or derivative exposure today or at any point to the $MRNA news can rally 10%+ on the day. Be smart for these companies to pocket these gains with secondaries and solidify fragile balance sheets, but in the ultimate short term pump market their management teams will no doubt not want to interrupt their stocks squeeze potential and will not issue shares, but aggressively unload their options

Quite a few directors at Bath & Body Works $BBWI are buying the dip on poor earnings, with the shares dropping to multi-year lows. With negative sentiment pressuring the topline and margins and quite a bit of leverage, we’re not surprised to see this share price action. That said, the company is refocusing on key franchises, improving its product offering, and cutting costs heavily. It's too early to touch this one, but it's certainly interesting to keep on the watchlist on a potential inflection of the fundamentals (while the market continues to puke the shares).
