@MattJMcClintock you don't need to squint to see the underperformance of $RH vs the rest of sector over the past month or ytd 😉 https://t.co/lyt7NOg23h

Best to be long stocks like $NEU which have no analyst coverage. Can’t miss earnings if there is no earnings consensus… https://t.co/dD5mVOVXsZ

@valuedrift $CAAP up 4% but $ASR flat because apparently it is better to own 1 Brazilian airport today than own a dozen Brazilian airports in three months once the M&A deal closes.

When rates jerk higher and everything rate-sensitive gets smoked together, that’s when you want to swoop in on the names where you actually have conviction. Rates spike. $FTAI, $CORZ, $CIFR, $OWL all gap down 5%. Did anything change in the catalyst? No? Buy the dislocation.

No clue how this plays out, but $ABG CEO during Q2 earnings what seems to have played out at $AN in Q3... So some of it seems like poor execution/mngmt?

@kab604 Oct 5

Will be interesting to see Q3 results, but $AN built up used inventory and apparently had to liquidate wholesale at a loss in Q3. But, that seems like an $AN issue... Look at this comment from $ABG's CEO:

@kab604 Oct 5

$ABG bought back 7% of shares in H1, $LAD hammered the buyback in Q1 before stock ripped. Robert Penske/Mitsui wants to take over $PAG (at a fwd PE of 15x). Meanwhile rest of sector starting to trade closer to 6x, after $AN CFO spooked mkt.🧐
