They Shoot Retail Stocks Don’t They?

Shoot Retail Stocks Don't TheyAs I look at the stock market action today and recently, it is hard to miss the fact that retail stocks are getting killed. GoPro (GPRO) has been annihilated for a while now but Fitbit (FIT) is joining in as are many others.

As I look at my screen today: FIT -11%, GPRO -7%, Michael Kors (KORS) -5.6%, Lululemon Athletica (LULU) -7.4%, Under Armour (UA) -6.6%, Vipshop (VIPS) -30%, Nordstrom (JWN) -20% and on and on. I wonder what this is saying about the Christmas season. They shoot horses retail stocks don’t they?

Retail Sales Bring Back the Bears

goldilocksIt started in China again last night as they reported lower than expected inflation. Then U.S. retail sales were below expectations.

In tonight’s Weekday Market Wrap video I look at all of today’s action and check in on Germany and China. Gold continues to push higher. Three new trade ideas tonight on Celgene (CELG), Lululemon Athletica (LULU) and Tesoro (TSO).  Continue reading

Coiling

CoilingThe market continues the coiling process of the last couple of weeks after the big breakdown in August. The DJIA was up 77 points today but the Hi-Lo indicator continues to read negative. I talk about my expectations in tonight’s video.

Stocks tonight are LULU, CAT, SCTY, TWTR and UAL. LULU got smashed today, down 16.4%. As a result our trade idea had a nice profit. Continue reading

Reversal Day

reversal dayAll the indices were up at the beginning of the session but started to fade and went negative after about 2 hours. So after the S&P500 was up 19 points, it ended down 27 points for the day. This looks like and acts like a reversal day but we’ll need to see follow-thru.

In the video below I go into detail about today’s action and look at the German DAX and China Shanghai Composite Index also. Stocks reviewed tonight include AAL, ADBE, LULU, GPRO, SCTY, TWTR and CAT. Continue reading
