10 Consumer Discretionary Stocks With Whale Alerts In Today's Session

In the current session, the stock is trading at $143.15, after a 0.37% spike. Over the past month, Abercrombie &amp; Fitch Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ANF#NYSE">ANF</a>) stock increased by 0.03%, and in the past year, by 56.79%. With performance like this, long-term shareholders are optimistic but others are more likely to look into the price-to-earnings ratio to see if the stock might be overvalued.

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1734355832_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Comparing Abercrombie &amp; Fitch P/E Against Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of the 30.41 in the Specialty Retail industry, Abercrombie &amp; Fitch Inc. has a lower P/E ratio of 14.12. Shareholders might be inclined to think that the stock might perform worse than it's industry peers. It's also possible that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1734355832_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Overcoming A 44%+ Drop In A Top Stock</h2>
We&#8217;ve done well with Super Micro Computer (SMCI) recently, buying it at $21.86 last month (&#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/24/11/42052075/turning-bullish-on-supermicro">Turning Bullish On Supermicro</a>&#8220;), and seeing the stock more than double since.

But SMCI was in some of our hedged portfolios created six months ago, and it dropped more than 44% over that time frame.&nbsp;
Here&#8217;s a look at one of those portfolios, and how hedging and security selection enabled it to still smoke the S&amp;P 500.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Our Hedged Portfolio From June 6th, 2024</h2>
This was the hedged portfolio our system created on June 6th, for an investor with $3,000,000 to put to work who didn&#8217;t want to risk a decline of more than 30% over the next six months. Our system started by dividing the money in seven equal parts, and allocating it to&nbsp;Abercrombie &amp; Fitch Co.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ANF#NYSE">ANF</a>),&nbsp;Century Aluminum Co.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CENX#NASDAQ">CENX</a>)&nbsp;Dell Technologies&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>),&nbsp;Comfort Systems USA, Inc.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FIX#NYSE">FIX</a>),&nbsp;Powell Industries, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/POWL#NASDAQ">POWL</a>), and&nbsp;Semtech Corp.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMTC#NASDAQ">SMTC</a>), in addition to&nbsp;Super Micro Computer Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>).&nbsp;

Next, it rounded down those seven dollar amounts to round lots of each of those names and their optimal hedges. Then it swept most of the leftover cash from that process into a tightly collared position in MicroStrategy, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>). 
The dollar amount of the SMCI position (circled in red in the image above) at the start was $233,376 in underlying shares and $21,900 in puts for a total position value of $255,276. We&#8217;ll come back to that in a moment.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How That Portfolio Performed Over The Next 6 Months</h2>
Over the next six months, our portfolio was up 30.52%, net of hedging and trading costs, while the&nbsp;SPDR S&amp;P 500 Trust&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) was up 14.4%. So it more than doubled the performance of the market, despite SMCI dropping 44%.&nbsp;
<figure class="wp-block-image aligncenter size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="700" height="545" src="https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/09214404/1-Portfolio-.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-3931" srcset="https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/09214404/1-Portfolio-.jpg 700w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/09214404/1-Portfolio--300x234.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px" /></figure>
<figure class="wp-block-image aligncenter size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="700" height="282" src="https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/09214442/2-Portfolio.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-3932" srcset="https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/09214442/2-Portfolio.jpg 700w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/09214442/2-Portfolio-300x121.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px" /></figure>
You can view an interactive version of the chart above <a href="https://portfolioarmor.com/front_tests/5769" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">here</a>.
You can see the ending value for the $SMCI plus its put hedge circled in red above: $202,155.30. Recall that the starting value for that position was&nbsp;$255,276. $202,155.30 represents a 20.8% drop from $255,276.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How This Portfolio Beat The Market Despite SMCI&#8217;s 44% Drop&nbsp;</h2>
We mentioned two reasons above: hedging and security selection. Both are true, but there&#8217;s a bit more to it.&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>Although SMCI dropped by 44%&#8211;and its hedge was designed to protect against a &gt;30% drop&#8211;it nevertheless limited the drawdown to 20.8%. That was due to the positive hedging error inherent in our hedging algorithm.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Security selection helped overall here in picking mostly winners. POWL, for example, was up more than 73% over that six-month period.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Concentration helped here too. Since there were only 8 underlying securities in the portfolio, the 73% gain in POWL had a big impact.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Finally, knowing when to hedge with optimal puts rather than optimal collars was key. Our system has an algorithm to determine that, and since it hedged POWL with puts, we captured nearly all of its upside.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
You can use our system to create hedged portfolios for dollar amounts as small as $30,000&#8211;you just need to enter the dollar amount you want to invest and largest drawdown you&#8217;re willing to risk, and our system does the rest.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">If You Just Want To Hedge What You Already Have</h2>
