- Thursday, November 29, 2012, 8:21 AM Holiday season warning for retail? The three heavyweight retailers to report November same-store sales all came in with disappointing marks. While Macy's and Target actually saw sales slip during the month, Gap showed a positive reading below expectations. The quick buzz from analysts is that a deeper trend than just a bump in the road from Hurricane Sandy could be in play. GPS -2.4%, TGT -2.9%, M -2.8%. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Wednesday, November 28, 2012, 8:01 AM Anybody relying on reports of Black Friday sales to make investment decisions likely deserves to be separated from their money. Barry Ritholtz makes crystal clear the reality of retail sales doesn't come anywhere near the breathless headlines. The 2012 Hall of Shame for Black Friday reporting. 3 Comments [Consumer]
- Friday, November 23, 2012, 11:18 AM By the numbers there can be no denying Black Friday is a dominating national event. An estimated 147M Americans will participate in the shopping frenzy, compared to the mere 126M people that voted in the national election or the 112M who watched the last Super Bowl. Early reports on turnout has been strong, but the read-through to the bottom line of the retail sector won't be known until there is a better handle on the level of promotional activity pushed out by under-duress retailers such as J.C. Penney (JCP +1.6%) OfficeMax (OMX -0.7%), Best Buy (BBY +0.3%), and RadioShack (RSH). 5 Comments [Consumer]
- Friday, November 23, 2012, 10:55 AM Retail stocks as a group are trading with strength on optimism Black Friday will deliver a healthy kickoff to the holiday season spending season. While accounts of lines out the door at major stores are an encouraging - but largely anecdotal indicator - it's early numbers from Wal-Mart (WMT +1.2%) and a Dow Jones report tipping off strong online spending on Thanksgiving that may be really powering the mini-rally for big retail concerns such as Costco (COST +0.6%), J.C. Penney (JCP +1.8%), Sears Holdings (SHLD +0.4%), and Target (TGT +0.5%). (Previous: WMT hits 5K transaction per second at its peak) 1 Comment [Consumer]
- Wednesday, November 14, 2012, 5:21 PM A look at sector performance in the 2 months since the Fed's QE∞ announcement finds tech (XLK), -11.6% the laggard by a wide margin. The materials sector (XLB) has about matched SPY's 7.3% decline. The top performer is healthcare (XLV), -2.7%. Industrials (XLI), staples (XLP), discretionary (XLY), financials (XLF), and utilities (XLU) have marginally bested the S&P. 4 Comments
- Tuesday, October 9, 2012, 1:00 PM Today is a market anniversary of sorts, with stocks beginning a bull run on Oct. 9, 2002 and then peaking on Oct. 9, 2007. Performance since the 2007 top (dividends included): Staples (XLP) and Consumer Discretionary (XLY) lead the way, gaining 47.1% and 34.6%, respectively. The outlier on the downside is the financial sector (XLF) -49.9%. (via) 1 Comment
- Tuesday, October 2, 2012, 7:43 AM A 2.8% decline in the Consumer Discretionary sector (XLY) relative to Consumer Staples (XLP) since the Fed's QE∞ announcement may suggest investors aren't buying Bernanke's insistence the program will boost the economy. More likely, it's a case of buy the rumor, sell the news, as the XLY outperformed the XLP by 9.2% in the 6 weeks prior to the Fed move. 1 Comment
- Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 8:04 AM The slowdown in growth is evident in this Barclays chart looking at the sales deceleration in economically sensitive sectors. (via) 2 Comments [U.S. Economy, Global & FX]
- Monday, August 20, 2012, 4:24 PM While 80% of S&P 500 stocks are above their 50-day moving average, all of the defensive sectors - Telecom, Consumer staples, Health care, Utilities - have readings below that. The most defensive of them all - Utilities - shows just 39% of the sector above the 50-day, a sharp change from just 2 weeks ago, when 90% were above. "The dynamic has clearly changed," writes Bespoke, with cyclical sectors now leading the charge. 7 Comments
- Friday, August 17, 2012, 8:59 AM Another graphic look (via ukarlewitz) at the recent rally which is notable for its rotation into roughed up sectors like Energy, Materials, Industrials, and Discretionary, and out of popular defensive plays like Utilities, Health Care, and Staples. Have the hedge funds been caught wrong-footed again? 2 Comments
- Tuesday, August 7, 2012, 11:28 AM A graphic look at the rotation into neglected sectors - Energy (XLE), Discretionary (XLY), Cyclical (FCL), and Retail (XRT) are all moving higher the past few sessions, while the popular mREITs (represented by NLY), Utilities (XLU), Pharmaceuticals (IHE), and Staples (XLP) all sell off. 4 Comments
- Friday, July 27, 2012, 5:10 AM The SEC and Department of Justice are considering starting an investigation of the retail sector for possible breaches of the anti-foreign bribery law, Reuters reports. The deliberations follow allegations about Wal-Mart's (WMT) practices in Mexico, and after other unnamed retailers reported possible offenses by their employees. 7 Comments [Consumer, Top Stories]
- Saturday, July 7, 2012, 8:10 AM Stocks haven't exactly been following oil's lead, but you can still feel crude's impact in two key sectors - energy and consumer discretionary - and that means you may want to target stocks like Dollar General (DG) and AutoZone (AZO) as well as ETFs like XLY and VCR. 8 Comments [Commodities, Quick Ideas]
- Tuesday, May 22, 2012, 12:22 PM Despite some individual names being taken out and shot, the consumer discretionary sector (XLY) continues a near year-long trend of outperforming the S&P, notes Bespoke. The weakest sectors - energy (XLE), industrials (XLI), materials (XLB) - suggest maybe slowing in China is driving macro more than events in Europe. 1 Comment
- Friday, April 27, 2012, 8:00 AM The Retail Spider (XRT) leads all ETFs (on a percentage basis), garnering $61.3M or 11% more AUM this week. Other big gainers are Health Care (XLV) and Consumer Discretionary (XLY). Leading those losing funds is the triple-levered small cap bull fund (TNA). Comment!
- Friday, April 20, 2012, 8:50 AM A look at PE ratios across 12 sectors shows significant multiple expansion across nearly all over the past months. Consumer Discretionary (XLY) - sporting the highest PE at 17.6 - raises a red flag to Bespoke as the sector is a defensive one. Comment!
