Interest rates determine the risk and reward perceptions of virtually all asset classes in the financial market. The benchmark for return is&mdash;and has always been&mdash;the United States ten-year treasury bond yield, so when bond yields are high, investors tend to avoid higher-risk assets like stocks, as the risk is not worth it compared to bond yields.
Now that the Federal Reserve (the Fed) has lowered interest rates by the most since 2007, investors may think that lower returns could be ahead, especially now that the S&amp;P 500 has priced in most&mdash;if not all&mdash;of the potential effects these interest rate cuts have on the economy. Understanding that new money will shift into different market areas is key. Still, it all begins with knowing what interest rates will do in the coming quarters.
Sectors that typically have higher debts on their balance sheets are poised to benefit from lower interest rates. Lower interest expenses on that debt would drive up net income and earnings per share (EPS). For this reason, investors can find higher returns in sectors like consumer discretionary and the real estate sector.
<h2>Top Consumer Discretionary Stocks Poised for Higher Growth Ahead</h2>
This is one sector that could benefit from a double tailwind as interest rates work their way through the economy. Still, not all consumer discretionary stocks are made equal. This is going to be the case, especially for those with a smaller market capitalization and higher debt.
<h3>Analysts Expect Abercrombie&#39;s EPS to Jump 14.5% by 2025</h3>
Fitting this list, investors can see stocks like Abercrombie &amp; Fitch Co. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/anf#NYSE">ANF</a>), with its $7.3 billion market capitalization today, carrying over 73% debt to equity on its balance sheet. This makes the company a prime target for an EPS expansion name, as lower interest rates help both consumer trends and lower interest expenses.
Wall Street knows this is the case, as analysts at Jefferies Financial Group see up to $220 as a price target for the company, calling for a net upside of 53.3% from where the stock trades today. More than that, Wall Street analysts expect to see EPS of $2.86 for the end of 2025, a jump of 14.5% from today&#39;s EPS of $2.5 in Abercrombie &amp; Fitch.
This growth in EPS and the higher valuation are driven by both the company&#39;s small size and the potential earnings expansion that can come from lowering interest expenses to push EPS higher to a point where current forecasts might be on the conservative side.
<h3>Chewy&#39;s Debt and Size Make It a Prime Target for Future Gains</h3>
Another name that is worth mentioning for a potential buy in this trend is Chewy Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/chwy#NYSE">CHWY</a>) as a part of the consumer discretionary space with a healthy mix of consumer staples in the way that pet owners will always have room in their budgets to take care of their pets&#39; needs.
Because the company is only $12.6 billion in size and carries over 100% in debt compared to equity, it makes for a nearly perfect buy target in the coming quarters. This is why analysts at Piper Sandler see a price target on the stock of up to $35 a share, calling for a net upside potential of 16.3% from where it trades today.
More than that, bearish traders decided to trim their views on Chewy stock, as the short interest has declined by 2% over the past month alone to show capitulation from the bearish side of the market and opening room for bulls to take their places instead.
Among these bulls were Truist Financial and B. Riley Wealth Advisors, who boosted their holdings in Chewy stock by 39.3% and 74% as of August 2024. This would bring their net investments up to $2.5 million and $565,000 today.
<h2>Real Estate Stocks Poised for Growth Ahead of the Market</h2>
<h3>Healthpeak&#39;s Dividend and Growth Potential Make It a Standout REIT</h3>
Real estate stocks fit this same category. Because they need to acquire property and boost rental income, stocks like&nbsp;Healthpeak Properties Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/doc#NYSE">DOC</a>) shine. This $15.9 billion real estate investment trust (REIT) operates in the healthcare sector, an underrated growth source in the U.S. economy.
Wall Street analysts know that lower interest rates can help this company acquire more property and boost its bottom-line earnings, so Evercore decided to raise its price target to $26 a share for Healthpeak Properties. To prove these targets right, the stock must rally by as much as 15% from where it trades today.
Wall Street&#39;s earnings per share (EPS) forecasts are set at $0.44 a share for the next 12 months, up from today&#39;s $0.21 a share for a net 109.5% growth rate. This comes on top of one of the main benefits of investing in REITs: the dividend payout.
Healthpeak Properties offers a $1.2 payout for an annualized dividend yield of up to 5.3% to beat inflation and cushion any volatility that lower rates might bring into the market.

Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

Peering Into Abercrombie & Fitch's Recent Short Interest

Ulta Beauty, Inc. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ulta#NASDAQ">ULTA</a>), a leading retailer in the beauty and cosmetic industry, has seen its stock price fall below critical technical thresholds, including its 200-day moving average. This moving average is an important indicator for gauging market trends and momentum. Yesterday the stock closed at $393.84, below the moving average of $436.89. The breach of this threshold heightens investors&#39; concerns about the stock&#39;s short-term outlook and signals the potential for further downside if these levels are not reclaimed.
<img alt="Zacks Investment Research" src="https://staticx-tuner.zacks.com/images/articles/charts/7f/79020.jpg?v=541858321" />
Image Source: Zacks Investment Research
Shares of Ulta Beauty have dropped 22.1% in the past six months compared with the industry&#39;s 12.2% decline. The S&amp;P 500 has gained 9.4% in the same time. Currently, the stock stands below its 52-week high of $574.76.
<img alt="Zacks Investment Research" src="https://staticx-tuner.zacks.com/images/articles/charts/01/79017.jpg?v=1437951768" />
Image Source: Zacks Investment Research
This decline in the stock price can be attributed to a combination of broader market dynamics and specific challenges encountered by the company. Let&#39;s see whether investors should exit or if this stock is on the verge of recovery.
<h2>Decoding Headwinds Behind ULTA&#39;s Dismal Stock Performance</h2>
ULTA is encountering challenges within prestige beauty. According to Circana data for the 13 weeks ended Aug. 3, 2024, the company retained market share in mass beauty, while losing share in the prestige beauty, particularly in makeup and hair categories. ULTA is also being impacted by changing consumer purchasing behavior, as they are increasingly prioritizing value over premium offerings in the face of inflationary pressures. It is also battling increased competitive pressures with the introduction of new points of distribution for prestige beauty products.
ULTA came across some unexpected operational challenges stemming from its Enterprise Resource Planning (&quot;ERP&quot;) system transformation in the second quarter of fiscal 2024. While managing old and new systems during the transition, some disruption occurred in in-store inventory allocation. To reduce future disruption, ULTA is identifying key legacy processes causing friction and implementing proactive monitoring and dedicated support to quickly address issues as they arise.
Another aspect that impacted ULTA&#39;s performance was the effect of incremental promotions, which fell short of generating the expected sales lift. While these promotions drove traffic and sales on the company&#39;s digital platforms, they failed to generate a meaningful uplift in ULTA&#39;s brick-and-mortar stores. The increased frequency of offers, with new structures, pressured the average selling price without leading to additional purchases in stores.
<h2>ULTA&#39;s Weak Gross Margin and High Cost</h2>
Ulta Beauty experienced a contraction in gross margin in the second quarter due to lower merchandise margin and fixed cost deleverage. The merchandise margin decreased due to increased promotional activity, adverse impact from the brand mix and the continued lapping of benefits from price increases last year. For fiscal 2024, the company is expecting gross margin to decline, as lower merchandise margin and deleverage of store fixed costs are likely to be only partially offset by growth in other revenues and lower transportation costs.
Ulta Beauty also has been grappling with higher selling, general and administrative (SG&amp;A) expenses for a while now. In the second quarter of fiscal 2024, SG&amp;A expenses increased due to the deleveraging of store payroll and benefits, higher corporate overhead from strategic investments and increased store and marketing expenses.
<h2>Revised Outlook of ULTA</h2>
To adopt a more cautious approach, the company decided to revise ULTA&#39;s fiscal 2024 outlook downward at its last earnings call. ULTA now expects net sales to be in the range of $11-$11.2 billion compared with the previous guidance of $11.5-$11.6 billion. Comparable sales are expected to be flat to down 2% compared with the 2% to 3% growth projected earlier. For fiscal 2024, earnings are envisioned in the band of $22.60-$23.50 per share, lower than the earlier guided range of $25.20-$26.
<h2>ULTA&#39;s Earnings Estimates Decline</h2>
ULTA is currently in a tough spot. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings per share has seen downward revisions. In the past 30 days, analysts have decreased their estimates for the current and next fiscal year by 8.9% to $23.21 and 10.5% to $25.16 per share, respectively.
<img alt="Zacks Investment Research" src="https://staticx-tuner.zacks.com/images/articles/charts/d3/79016.jpg?v=2035038154" />
Image Source: Zacks Investment Research
<h2>Factors Working in ULTA&#39;s Favor</h2>
ULTA is concentrating on reinforcing its competitive position and driving stronger performance through several initiatives. These include strengthening product assortment, increasing social relevance, enhancing the digital experience, leveraging a powerful loyalty program and evolving promotional strategies.

<h2>ULTA&#39;s Investment Analysis</h2>
Ulta Beauty&#39;s stock decline points to several challenges, including slowing beauty category growth, heightened competition, changing consumer trends and ERP system disruptions. The company&#39;s reduced fiscal 2024 guidance, coupled with negative sentiment from analysts, indicates that it could face ongoing difficulties. While omnichannel expansion and loyalty program improvements are noteworthy, these may not be enough to counter current obstacles. With persistent issues and an uncertain future, investors should approach the stock with caution. Currently, Ulta Beauty stock carries a Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell).

Smart Money Is Betting Big In ANF Options

Designer Brands Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/dbi#NYSE">DBI</a>) released second-quarter fiscal 2024 results, wherein both the bottom and top lines lagged the Zacks Consensus Estimate and declined year over year.
However, during the second quarter, the company continued to advance with its strategic initiatives aimed at business transformation. Despite challenges in categories like dress and seasonal footwear, the expansion of athletic and athleisure brands helped mitigate some of the pressure.
Looking ahead, the focus will be on investments in retail and brand businesses to drive growth. Enhancements in product assortment, marketing and the omnichannel customer experience are intended to ensure the company remains a top destination for footwear. These enhancements will also help it to adapt to changing consumer spending patterns and evolving market trends.

<h2>More on Designer Brands&#39; Q2 Results</h2>
Designer Brands posted adjusted earnings of 29 cents per share, which missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 56 cents. The company recorded earnings of 59 cents per share in the year-ago period.
Net sales were $771.9 million, down 2.6% year over year. The top line missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $819 million. Also, comparable sales (comps) decreased 1.4% year over year compared with the Zacks Consensus Estimate of a nearly 3.7% decline.
<h2>Insight Into DBI&#39;s Margins &amp; Expenses</h2>
Gross profit amounted to $252.9 million, down 7.5% from $273.4 million in the year-ago quarter. This was primarily due to lesser revenues. Also, the gross margin decreased 170 bps to 32.8% from the prior-year period&#39;s level.
This decline was mainly due to a lower initial markup on athletic and athleisure products as the company focused on increasing its market share in these categories. Additionally, the need to run promotions to clear seasonal inventory put pressure on the gross margin, leading to reduced profitability.
Adjusted SG&amp;A expenses, as a percentage of net sales, rose to 28.9%, up 200 basis points from 26.9% in the same quarter last year. This increase in the ratio was primarily due to a drop in overall sales, combined with higher fixed costs and greater investment in areas like talent acquisition and IT, particularly for e-commerce and back-to-school marketing. However, this impact was somewhat mitigated by cost reductions implemented at the start of the second quarter.
Adjusted net income amounted to $17.1 million, down 56.7% from $39.4 million in the year-ago quarter.

DIN Expands Global Reach With New Dual-Branded Restaurant

Stitch Fix, Inc. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/sfix#NASDAQ">SFIX</a>) has seen a substantial 45.4% surge in its stock price in the past six months, significantly outpacing the Zacks Retail-Apparel and Shoes industry&#39;s 6.5% decline. This impressive growth is driven by the company&#39;s strategic initiatives, such as AI-powered inventory management, pricing optimization, margin expansion, enhanced client engagement and improved cost efficiency.
These efforts have enabled Stitch Fix to outperform both the broader Retail-Wholesale sector and the S&amp;P 500 index, which saw growth of 2.6% and 5.9%, respectively, in the same period. This impressive uptick has left many investors wondering if they missed out on a lucrative opportunity or if there is still potential for growth. Closing at $3.46 as of Sept. 6, the SFIX stock is inching toward its 52-week high of $5.05 attained on July 16, 2024.
Technical indicators are supportive of Stitch Fix&#39;s strong performance. The stock is trading above both its 100-day and 200-day moving averages, indicating robust upward momentum and price stability. This technical strength reflects positive market perception and confidence in SFIX&#39;s financial health and prospects.
From a valuation perspective, the stock presents an attractive opportunity, trading at a discount relative to historical and industry benchmarks. With a forward 12-month price-to-sales ratio of 0.33, below the five-year median of 0.54 and the industry&#39;s average of 1.04, the stock offers compelling value for investors seeking exposure to the sector. The stock currently has a Value Score of A, further validating its appeal.

<h2>Stitch Fix&#39;s Strategic Moves to Drive Growth</h2>
Stitch Fix continues to fuel its growth by leveraging AI and data analytics, which have become central to the company&#39;s operations. A key driver of this success is the implementation of an AI-driven inventory buying tool, now responsible for nearly half of all inventory decisions, significantly boosting efficiency compared to traditional methods. This strategic application of AI highlights Stitch Fix&#39;s commitment to innovating business processes and maintaining a competitive edge.
The introduction of Quick Fixes, a feature that allows clients to schedule an additional fix immediately after checkout, has led to a 25% increase in average order value within three weeks, showcasing the company&#39;s agility in meeting client needs. Additionally, a comprehensive review of pricing architecture has resulted in adjustments expected to generate more than $20 million in annualized contribution profit, aligning prices with the value offered and enhancing profitability.
Stitch Fix has also made significant strides in margin expansion and operational efficiency. In the third quarter of fiscal 2024, the company reported a 280-basis-point year-over-year increase in gross margin, reaching 45.5%. This improvement was driven by strong product margins and better transportation leverage, reflecting the company&#39;s strategic focus on optimizing pricing and inventory management.
Enhancing the client experience remains a top priority for Stitch Fix. The company has introduced more dynamic and personalized interactions, such as increasing the number of items in each fix, refining discount strategies and improving the onboarding process. These initiatives have already delivered promising results, with higher average order values and improved retention metrics, indicating strong client satisfaction and loyalty.
The launch of Stitch Fix Freestyle has created a unique shopping experience, allowing customers to discover and purchase curated items based on their style preferences, fit and size, without the need for a Fix first. This initiative is part of the company&#39;s broader strategy to expand its client base and achieve long-term profitability.
On the marketing front, Stitch Fix is refining its strategy to prioritize liquidity preservation and profitability by focusing on high-lifetime-value clients. The company is also restructuring its operations, including consolidating U.S. warehouse locations from five to three and successfully divesting its U.K. operations, further aligning SFIX&#39;s business for sustained growth.
<h2>Declining Active Client Base: A Major Hurdle of SFIX</h2>
The reduction in the active client base in the past eight quarters has been a major concern and is the primary factor behind the company&#39;s revenue decline. In the third quarter of fiscal 2024, the number of active clients involved in ongoing operations fell to 2,633,000, representing a 20% year-over-year decrease.
Consequently, the company&#39;s revenues dropped 15.8% in the fiscal third quarter. This persistent decline in sales indicates ongoing challenges in client retention and acquisition, possibly indicating deeper issues related to product appeal or increased market competition.
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
Investors may consider SFIX stock due to its strong recovery momentum, bolstered by innovative AI-driven inventory management and pricing strategies, which have significantly improved efficiency, margins and client engagement.
Despite a decline in the active client base, the stock&#39;s value appeal is evident in its low price-to-sales ratio and outperforming industry benchmarks, combined with technical indicators showing robust price stability. This makes SFIX an attractive option for those seeking exposure to a company leveraging advanced analytics for growth. The company&#39;s focus on operational efficiency and profitability further enhances its investment potential. Stitch Fix currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).

엔비디아(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>)는 지난 1년간 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/NVDA/news" target="_blank" rel="noopener">수익률 순위</a>에서 나스닥 100 지수 1위를 차지하며 눈에 띄는 기술 주식이었다.
이 칩 제조업의 거인은 인공지능(AI) 개발을 위한 칩에 대한 급증하는 수요로, 지난 2023년 5월 말 이후 무려 186%나 급등했다.
베테랑 월스트리트 투자자 에드 야데니(Ed Yardeni)는 최근 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/05/39037833/magnificent-7-becomes-the-magnificent-one-wall-street-guru-hails-single-tech-stock-">매그니피센트 7</a>(Magnificent Seven)과 엔비디아의 탁월한 성능을 차별화하기 위해 &#8216;매그니피센트 1(Magnificent One)&#8217;을 만들었다.
엔비디아의 시장 가치 증가 규모를 설명하기 위해 불과 1년 전만 해도 엔비디아의 가치는 1조 달러로 평가되었다. 오늘날 이 회사는 2조 8천억 달러라는 엄청난 가치를 자랑하며 미국에서 세 번째로 큰 회사가 되었다.
엔비디아의 현재 가치는 테슬라(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), 일라이 릴리(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LLY#NYSE">LLY</a>), 브로드컴(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>), 월마트(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMT#NYSE">WMT</a>) 및 마스터카드(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MA#NYSE">MA</a>)의 시장가치 합계와 동일하다.
자세히 보기: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/education/24/05/39063462/when-will-nvidia-be-the-most-valuable-company-in-the-world">엔비디아가 세계에서 가장 가치 있는 회사가 될 때는 언제일까?</a>
그러나 엔비디아의 눈부신 상승세는 지난 1년간 이 칩 제조업체의 인상적인 수익률을 두 배 이상 증가시킨 미국 주식 7개에 의해 가려졌다.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">7. 베라 테라퓨틱스(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VERA#NASDAQ">VERA</a>)- 363%</h2>

2023년 5월 30일 이후 363%의 급등을 기록했으며, 동일 기간 동안 엔비디아의 수익률을 두 배로 능가했다.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">6. 버티브 홀딩스(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VRT#NYSE">VRT</a>)- 413%</h2>
버티브 홀딩는 중요한 디지털 인프라 및 연속성 솔루션을 제공한다. 이 회사는 데이터 센터 및 IT 인프라에 대한 수요가 증가한 데에 힘입어 강력한 재무 성과를 거두고, 결과적으로 주가가 크게 상승했다.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">5. 마이크로스트레티지(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>)- 441%</h2>
마이크로스트레티지는 비즈니스 인텔리전스 기업으로, 비트코인(CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>)에 대한 상당한 투자로 주목받았다.
이 회사의 주식 수익률 비트코인 가격 변동과 밀접한 관련이 있으며, 주가는 비트코인의 상승과 함께 급등했다. 이 가장 큰 암호화폐는 지난 2023년 5월 말 이후 140%의 상승을 기록했다.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">4. 애버크롬비 &amp; 피치(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ANF#NYSE">ANF</a>)- 503%</h2>
애버크롬비 &amp; 피치는 캐주얼 웨어 및 라이프스타일 제품으로 유명한 명품 패션 리테일러이다. 이 회사의 주가 강세는 강력한 전환 노력, 강력한 전자상거래 성장 및 개선된 수익성 지표로 인해 투자자의 관심을 끌었다.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">3. 카바나(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVNA#NASDAQ">CVNA</a>)- 666%</h2>
카바나는 온라인 중고차 리테일러로, 자택 배달 및 7일 내 반품 정책을 갖춘 완전 온라인 플랫폼을 통해 차량 구매 경험을 혁신하였다.
이 회사는 어려웠던 시기를 겪은 지속적인 회복과 특별한 사업 모델 및 성장 가능성에 대한 투자자의 신뢰회복으로 주가가 급등했다.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">2. 솔레노 테라퓨틱스(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SLNO#NASDAQ">SLNO</a>)- 697%</h2>
솔레노 테라퓨틱스는 프라더 윌리(Prader-Willi) 증후군과 같은 희귀 질병에 대한 치료제 개발에 초점을 맞춘 회사이다. 이 회사의 주식은 긍정적인 임상 시험 결과와 약품 후보물질 파이프라인에 대한 낙관적 전망으로 인해 급등했다.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">1. 머니라이언(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ML#NYSE">ML</a>)- 790%</h2>
머니라이언는 개인 대출, 신용 빌딩 서비스 및 금융 자문 도구를 비롯한 다양한 제품을 제공하는 디지털 금융 플랫폼이다. 이 회사의 상당한 주가 급등은 핀테크 서비스의 공격적인 확장과 혁신에 의해 주도되었으며, 접근 가능한 금융 솔루션을 찾는 광범위한 고객 기반에 어필하고 있다.
