Monster run past few days in retail -- $SHOP, $URBN, $EBAY, $ETSY $SHAK etc. especially considering where oil and diesel have traded and the results from $DPZ today..... seems selective still many laggards in each of those verticals - someone making a rates/inflation play or pure rotation slop as they sell chips? Weird(er) is the strength in rate sensitive plays like $w and even $trex relative t the rest of housing like $QXO, $BLDR, $low Opportunities in-between sectors to make our own call based on where you view the data
