Our call has been to be Short Retail, and Long 'boring' retailers -- things like $BBWI, $GIL, $VVV, $DRVN. Revenue inflecting positive on all three, stocks should grind higher through 2H, while the rest of retail melts down.
Best Idea Short $FND should literally be down 20% on this print alone. Across the board guide-down and cutting unit growth AGAIN. Winners don't cut unit growth when times are tough, they LEAN-IN and accelerate investment. But in FND's case it's about cash preservation. Bulls are having major thesis drift here.
And in other news, John Donahoe got paid $29MILLION for all that value he created last year as CEO of $NKE.
$CVGW USDA crackdown on Mexican avocado corruption significantly erroding import vols (region where $CVGW sources all product). S. America taking share at accelerating rate as customers (ie. $CMG, grocers) shift suppliers. $CVGW sales vol -13% MRQ. Current Q could be a disaster.
$PLUS Earnings on 8/5, expectations & stock disconnected from reality. Suppliers ($CSCO – 50% of product sales), competitors & customers all reporting sharp sales declines. Non-event PR today re a service they’ve been offering for 3 yrs is pumping stock; suggests mgmt is grasping
Thanks to Spruce Point for making our $FND Short Call! The work we've done on this name is the best work we've done -- on ANY name -- EVER. @HedgeyeRetailJM @hedgeyeretailrw
Seriously considering getting a Swoosh tattoo on my forehead (ok, maybe on my calf like PHK) -- with a $75 after it -- after today's shellacking -- to remember forever (and to remind me when this stock is at $150). $NKE
$NKE SHOULD be getting tagged. So should $ONON and $DECK as Nike Futures are up so materially in the specialty running channel. But what the market is getting WRONG is taking $FL lower. FL is Nike's meal ticket to reaccelerating top line. It's a massive long here. It's a 2-3-bagger from here.
