10 Consumer Discretionary Stocks Whale Activity In Today's Session

Lululemon Athletica Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LULU#NASDAQ">LULU</a>) shares are trading higher by 3.28% to $271.18 during Friday&#8217;s session. Shares of apparel-related companies are trading higher after the dockworkers <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41177060/port-strike-ends-workers-return-to-work-friday">reached a deal</a> to suspend their strike after they reached a tentative agreement.
What Happened: Lululemon stock rose on Friday following the resolution of the port strike along the East and Gulf coasts, which ended after a tentative agreement was reached between dockworkers and port operators. 
The labor dispute, which had threatened to disrupt supply chains ahead of the critical holiday season, was quickly resolved, easing fears of significant delays in inventory shipments for retailers like Lululemon.
The agreement, which includes a 62% wage increase for dockworkers over six years and improved working conditions, addresses key demands of the International Longshoremen&#8217;s Association.

The strike, which lasted only three days, averted a prolonged disruption that would have caused logistical challenges for companies reliant on steady import flows, especially as they gear up for the busy holiday period.
What Else: For Lululemon, which sources a substantial portion of its products from overseas manufacturers, any disruption in the port operations could have caused shipment delays, potentially resulting in lower inventory levels during the all-important fourth quarter. The quick resolution of the strike now ensures that Lululemon, and other retailers, can keep their supply chains running smoothly as consumer demand peaks.
The news also defused a political risk for the current administration, which had been under pressure to avoid a prolonged labor conflict that could have exacerbated inflationary pressures. Dockworkers are set to return to work immediately, with port operations expected to return to normal by the end of the week.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy LULU Stock</h2>
By now you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for Lululemon Athletica &#8211; be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy ‘fractional shares,' which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share. For example, some stock, like Berkshire Hathaway, can cost thousands of dollars to own just one share. However, if you only want to invest a fraction of that, brokerages will allow you to do so.
In the the case of Lululemon Athletica, which is trading at $270.63 as of publishing time, $100 would buy you 0.37 shares of stock.
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to ‘go short' a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading &#8211; either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, LULU has a 52-week high of $516.37 and a 52-week low of $226.19.

Lululemon Athletica's Options Frenzy: What You Need to Know

Historically, investors have bet on the consumer discretionary sector when the Federal Reserve (the Fed) cuts interest rates, as these typically have a positive effect on consumer spending habits through easier and cheaper financing rates. However, this time it&#39;s different, the state of the consumer is not what it used to be before, and that is sending money out of a few stocks in the space and into others.
Stocks in the retail industry, those that are highly dependent on domestic demand and consumer trends, will likely suffer from what&#39;s happening behind the scenes in the economy. Lululemon Athletica Inc. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/lulu#NASDAQ">LULU</a>) falls into this category, which is why price action and analyst downgrades have been working against the company lately. To avoid this pitfall, investors can look into those with much more international sales exposure.
A bigger brand like Nike Inc.&nbsp;with a large presence in international markets can help the financials of the business diversify across different trends and cycles. Benefitting from this same trend is Skechers Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/skx#NYSE">SKX</a>) with over a third of its sales exposure being concentrated in European markets. Before investors dig deeper into he divergence between these names, they should understand why domestic markets are seeing lower demand.
<h2>Key Factors Behind the Recent Decline in Consumer Confidence Readings</h2>
Economists can keep thinking in black or white terms when it comes to the consumer, but the reality is that there are many more factors at play, such as psychology. The consumer today has to battle with rising unemployment rates, inflation in items like rent, groceries, and insurance.
The divergence between earning power and inflation has caused one major shift in the financial sector, one that drove Warren Buffett out of consumer credit stocks like Capital One Financial Co. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/cof#NYSE">COF</a>) over the past quarter. Credit card delinquencies are on the rise, and so are car repossession rates in their 23% annual spike.
Ultimately, the personal savings rate ended up negative in recent readings, meaning items like clothing and other discretionary items will likely be first to be put out of the monthly spending budget from consumers. Investors can probably guess what happens next to stocks that rely too much on domestic demand for these products, such as Lululemon.
<h2>The Trends Are Clear for Lululemon: Here Are the Key Details</h2>
Lululemon stock had been an investor favorite since the COVID-19 pandemic, when the Fed cut interest rates to a near historical low, an event that helped Lululemon see better prospects. However, today&#39;s rate cuts come up against the weakening consumer state, which won&#39;t probably have the same effect on the stock as they had a few years ago.
Wall Street analysts know this, and those at Raymond James, Citigroup, Deutsche Bank all downgraded Lululemon stock&#39;s price target over the past month. This shift in sentiment serves as a warning for investors to consider, one that is weighted against these fundamental trends that also work against the stock.
More than that, bearish traders decided to raid the stock recently as well, as Lululemon stock&#39;s short interest rose by as much as 10.8% in the past month, part of a quarterly trend higher. This new sentiment can be seen in the company&#39;s price action lately as well.
Lululemon stock now trades at a low 50% of its 52-week high, meaning a deep bear market in the company&#39;s value perception. The changing sentiment can also be attributed to Wall Street&#39;s earnings per share (EPS) projections for the next 12 months.
Analysts predict that Lululemon will see only $2.85 EPS compared to today&#39;s $3.15, calling for a net decline of 9.5% to bring the bearish thesis home. Despite the sock already trading at a low, investors should consider waiting a bit before forgiving its fall.
<h2>Why Nike and Skechers Are the Better Buys Right Now</h2>
Counting with a much bigger international presence, both Nike and Skechers are able to stay away from the potentially bigger contractions to be seen from the consumer sector in the United States, which is why Wall Street has treated both of them a bit better.
Not to mention, mega investor Bill Ackman recently took advantage of Nike&#39;s sell-off to buy up a sizeable stake in the company, showing investors that value is in Nike rather than Lululemon stock despite both suffering from similar declines. Here&#39;s what Wall Street had to say about Nike.
The consensus price target lies at $96.5 today, calling for up to 8% upside from where the stock trades right now. This is after the double-digit rally that Ackman&#39;s purchase ignited as well. But that&#39;s not all, the Healthcare of Ontario Pension Plan decided to boost their holdings by 625.4% in Nike, bringing their net investment to $5.8 million today.
All told, Nike stock now trades at 72% of its 52-week high to be significantly above Lululemon.
Skechers brings a similar thesis to the market, as the stock sits at 92% of its 52-week high to show investors bullish momentum in recent months.
Analysts at Bank of America felt comfortable boosting the stock&#39;s price target up to $81 a share, daring it to rally by as much as 17% from where it trades today and also make a new yearly high. Short sellers are also starting to capitulate in front of this trend, as Skechers stock&#39;s short interest declined by 9.2% in the past month.
With declining short interest and increasing analyst confidence, Skechers appears poised for continued strength. If current trends persist, the stock could soon challenge its previous highs, further supported by strong market sentiment.
Fundamentally, these two have much better upside and safety than Lululemon, which is why investors should consider them as potential buys in the middle of a weakening consumer sentiment reading.

Shares of Lululemon Athletica Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LULU#NASDAQ">LULU</a>) dipped 0.9% to $264.04 Wednesday morning after Nike Inc reported weaker-than-expected first-quarter revenue, raising concerns about the broader athletic apparel market. Nike&#8217;s first-quarter revenue came in at $11.59 billion, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/10/41129610/nike-q1-earnings-revenue-miss-eps-beat-teams-energized-amid-ceo-transition-a-comeback-at-this-scale">missing Wall Street's expectations</a> of $11.65 billion.
The 10% year-over-year revenue decline, including drops across North America, China and Europe, has cast a shadow over the entire athletic retail sector, including premium brands like Lululemon.
What To Know: While Lululemon operates in a slightly different segment of the athletic apparel market, specializing in high-end yoga and athleisure wear, Nike's earnings report highlights potential challenges facing the broader industry. 
Nike's wholesale revenues, which dropped by 8%, and its 13% decline in Nike Direct revenues, indicate softening consumer demand across athletic wear and footwear. This could suggest potential headwinds for Lululemon, which also relies on maintaining strong consumer interest in performance and lifestyle apparel.

Nike's wholesale revenues, which dropped by 8%, and its 13% decline in Nike Direct revenues, indicate softening consumer demand across athletic wear and footwear. This could suggest potential headwinds for Lululemon, which also relies on maintaining strong consumer interest in performance and lifestyle apparel.
Nike&#8217;s earnings miss comes at a time when macroeconomic conditions, including inflation and slowing consumer spending, are pressuring discretionary purchases. Lululemon, known for its premium pricing strategy, could face increased competition for consumer dollars as shoppers become more price-sensitive. 
What Else: Although Lululemon has historically benefited from strong brand loyalty and a focus on affluent customers, the broader weakness in Nike&#8217;s results could signal cooling demand for athletic apparel in general.
Moreover, Nike's sales decline in key markets, especially North America, where sales dropped 11%, raises concerns for Lululemon&#8217;s core business. Both companies rely heavily on North American consumers, and any prolonged slowdown in this region could impact Lululemon&#8217;s future growth trajectory. 
Lululemon, which has been expanding its product offerings into areas like footwear and men&#8217;s wear, could face intensified competition from Nike if the latter leans into promotions and discounts to offset its slowing sales, especially with Nike's inventory still at $8.3 billion, down just 5% year-over-year.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy LULU Stock</h2>
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. 
For example, in Lululemon Athletica&#8217;s case, it is in the Consumer Discretionary sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, LULU has a 52-week high of $516.37 and a 52-week low of $226.19.

If You Invested $100 In This Stock 10 Years Ago, You Would Have $600 Today

Palantir Technologies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>) and Dell Technologies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>) will be added to the S&amp;P 500 Index on Friday, as part of a rebalancing that happens<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40958207/how-apple-stock-could-gain-from-fridays-s-p-500-rebalancing-what-investors-should-know"> once a quarter.</a>
Here's a look at what the addition means and how Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) stock performed since it joined the index in 2020.
 What Happened: Palantir will be<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/broad-u-s-equity-etfs/24/09/40795608/palantirs-s-p-500-journey-rebel-tech-giant-transforms-into-frankenstein-monster-powere"> added to the S&amp;P 500 Index </a>for the first time as part of the rebalancing, while this will be a homecoming for Dell, which was previously a member.
Being a part of the S&amp;P 500 Index can be a great thing for stocks and their investors as it means that the company gets more notoriety and is also tracked by the many ETFs that track the index such as the popular SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>).
Stocks that are added to the S&amp;P 500 Index don't always experience jumps in their share price in the short or long term. In fact, many stocks see a run-up in their share price when it is announced they are going to be added before falling after the addition takes place.
One of the biggest S&amp;P 500 moves of all time was the decision to include Tesla in the index. The move came as the company turned profitable and had met other requirements to be included.
Tesla<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/20/11/18396238/tesla-will-finally-be-added-to-the-s-p-500"> officially joined </a>the S&amp;P 500 Index on Dec. 21, 2020, with the stock all added at once, a move that came as experts decided if the stock should be added in two tranches due to the stock's size.
At the time Tesla was added to the S&amp;P 500, the stock made up the sixth largest weighting in the index. Tesla is now the 11th largest weighting.
Tesla shares struggled in its<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/education/22/12/30189411/heres-how-much-tesla-has-dragged-down-the-s-p-500-since-it-was-added-2-years-ago"> first two years </a>in the S&amp;P 500 with a 46.5% decline, including a more than 60% drop in 2022. The large weighting of Tesla and subsequent stock price drop weighed on the market index's performance along with the ETFs that tracked it.
Investors who bought Tesla the day it was added to the S&amp;P 500 may have done better buying days or months later after the fanfare had faded.
A $1,000 investment in Tesla stock on Dec. 21, 2020, could have bought 4.89 shares based on a split-adjusted price of $222.83.

What's Next: Palantir and Dell are both trading higher year-to-date and saw spikes when it was announced they would be added to the S&amp;P 500 Index. The moves could be short-lived lived and investors should be aware that shares won't just trade higher Friday or Monday because the stocks are now included in the market index.
Freedom Capital Markets Chief Market Strategist Jay Woods shared some recent examples in his weekly <a href="https://jaywoods.substack.com/">newsletter </a>ahead of the S&amp;P 500 rebalance, which traditionally takes place on the third Friday of March, June, September and December. Some additions happen when mergers and acquisitions are completed to replace old members.
<ul>
<li>Lululemon Athletica Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LULU#NASDAQ">LULU</a>): Was added in October 2023 and jumped 10% on the news and "faded after three days and inclusion day was a non-event," Woods said.</li>
<li>Uber Technologies Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>): Stock was added in December 2023 and moved up 8% before giving gains back two weeks later.</li>
<li>Super Micro Computer Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>): Stock jumped 27% when the S&amp;P 500 addition was announced and was later up only 10% when shares were added officially in March 2024. Shares have fallen since the stock was added.</li>
</ul>
"So far PLTR has rallied 17.3% since the announcement, while shares of Dell have climbed 12.1%. Expect them to fade into Friday's close but resume their recent trends within a few weeks of the addition into their next earnings cycle," Woods said on Monday.
Woods said some market enthusiasts claim that being added to the S&amp;P 500 Index is a curse, which Tesla and Super Micro may illustrate above.
"Most additions have fared well and resumed their trends and normal activity afterwards."
For Palantir and Dell, time will tell if the addition is a curse or a normal event ahead of more growth for shares.
PLTR, DELL Price Action: Palantir shares traded at $36.25 at the time of writing Friday versus a 52-week trading range of $13.68 to $37.35. Palantir stock is up 122.1% year-to-date.
Dell shares traded at $117.06 at the time of writing Friday versus a 52-week trading range of $63.90 to $179.70. Dell shares are up 57.5% year-to-date.

Lululemon Athletica (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LULU#NASDAQ">LULU</a>)&nbsp;reported financial results for the second quarter after the market closed on Thursday.&nbsp;
Analysts covering the&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/LULU/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">company provided their takes:</a>
<ul>
<li>Truist Securities analyst Joseph Civello reiterates the Buy rating on the retailer, maintaining the price forecast at $310.</li>
<li>Goldman Sachs analyst Brooke Roach reiterates the stock&#8217;s Neutral rating and increases the price forecast to $291 from $286.</li>
<li>Piper Sandler analyst Anna Andreeva maintains the Neutral rating and increases the price target to $260 from $250.</li>
<li>BMO Capital Markets analyst Simeon Siegel reiterates the company&#8217;s Market Perform rating with a price forecast of $265.</li>
<li>JP Morgan analyst Matthew R. Boss reiterates the Overweight rating, with a price forecast of $338.</li>
<li>Stifel analyst Jim Duffy maintains the Buy rating, with a price forecast of $370.</li>
</ul>
Truist Securities: Civello is optimistic about the future outlook, noting that management&#8217;s increased focus on introducing new products is crucial for driving growth. The analyst maintains a Buy rating with expectations realigned, strong international momentum, self-help initiatives gaining traction in the U.S., and a $1 billion repurchase authorization.
The analyst has reduced their EPS estimates for 2024 and 2025, lowering the projections from $14.30 and $16.05 to $14.05 and $15.40, respectively.

Goldman Sachs: The analyst notes that while the U.S. women&#8217;s business remained weak, growth in men&#8217;s apparel and Canada helped offset this decline.
Additionally, better-than-expected margins were achieved due to effective fixed expense management, favorable product mix, and a lower markdown rate.
The analyst revised the EPS estimates for FY24, FY25, and FY26 to $13.99, $15.27, and $17.37, respectively, up from the previous $13.81, $15.08, and $17.04, to account for the second-quarter results, weaker sales trends in North America, and improvements in cost control.
Piper Sandler: The analyst has adjusted the &#8217;24/&#8217;25 estimates upward following the second-quarter beat.
While the stock may receive some leeway due to past underperformance, the analyst sees its valuation will remain limited until the U.S. comparable store sales turn positive.
The analyst has increased their EPS estimates for 2024 and 2025 to $13.88 and $14.75, respectively, reflecting growth rates of 9% and 6%.
BMO Capital Markets: According to the analyst, widespread negativity was offset by better-than-expected gross margins (with markdowns remaining flat) and clean inventory levels, which likely alleviated some concerns.
However, the company still reports gross margins below those of its peers and is experiencing significant slowdowns in both domestic and Women&#8217;s revenue.
JP Morgan: Although the in-stock position for smaller sizes has improved through the second quarter and into the third quarter, CEO McDonald pointed out that the major issue affecting the Women&#8217;s business is &#8220;a product plan that introduced less newness in both core and seasonal styles,&#8221; the analyst writes.
The analyst&#8217;s forecast suggests that the brand could gain from international expansion, strong growth in men&#8217;s products, new categories like personal care and footwear, and increased e-commerce sales alongside steady growth in the core North American business.
This leads to mid-teens revenue growth and high-teens earnings growth through FY26, with modest annual improvements in operating margins due to gains in gross margin and leverage from selling, general, and administrative expenses.
Stifel: According to the analyst, the company needs to demonstrate a turnaround in its U.S. business to counter the negative outlook.
In the meantime, the analyst considers the shares to be undervalued and anticipates that, with a potential turnaround in the U.S. business, the shares could see a significant increase in value by early 2025.
Price Action: LULU shares are trading lower by 0.72% to $257.14 at last check Friday.

팔란티어 테크놀로지스(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>)와 델 테크놀로지스(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>)가 금요일에 S&amp;P 500 지수에 추가되었다. 이는 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40958207/how-apple-stock-could-gain-from-fridays-s-p-500-rebalancing-what-investors-should-know" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">분기마다</a> 발생하는 리밸런싱의 일환이다.
여기서 추가되는 것이 의미하는 바와 테슬라(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>)의 주식이 2020년 이 지수에 포함된 이후 어떻게 반응했는지 살펴보겠다.
무슨 일이 (What Happened): 팔란티어는 리밸런싱의 일환으로 처음으로 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/broad-u-s-equity-etfs/24/09/40795608/palantirs-s-p-500-journey-rebel-tech-giant-transforms-into-frankenstein-monster-powere" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">이 S&amp;P 500 지수에 추가</a>되며, 델은 이전에 이 지수 구성원이었으므로 복귀를 의미한다.
S&amp;P 500 지수의 구성원이 되는 것은 주식과 투자자들에게 긍정적인 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 이는 회사가 더 많은 인지도를 얻고, 인기 있는 SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>)와 같이 이 지수를 추적하는 많은 ETF들에 의해 노출된다는 것을 의미한다.
S&amp;P 500 지수에 추가되는 주식들이 항상 단기적 또는 장기적으로 주가가 급등하는 것은 아니다. 사실, 많은 주식들이 추가될 것이라는 발표가 있을 때 주가가 상승한 후, 실제 추가가 이루어진 후에는 하락하는 경우가 많다.
역사적으로 가장 큰 S&amp;P 500 움직임 중 하나는 테슬라가 이 지수에 포함되기로 결정된 것이다. 이 결정은 이 회사가 수익을 내기 시작하고 지수에 포함되기 위한 다른 요건을 충족했을 때 이루어졌다.
테슬라는 2020년 12월 21일에 S&amp;P 500 지수에 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/20/11/18396238/tesla-will-finally-be-added-to-the-s-p-500" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">공식적으로</a> 포함되었다. 이 주식은 한 번에 모두 추가되었으며, 이는 전문가들이 주식의 크기로 인해 두 번에 나누어 추가해야 하는지 여부를 결정하던 중 발생한 일이다.
당시 테슬라가 S&amp;P 500에 추가되었을 때, 해당 주식은 이 지수에서 여섯 번째로 큰 비중을 차지했다. 현재 테슬라는 11번째로 큰 비중을 차지하고 있다.
테슬라 주가는 S&amp;P 500에서 처음 2년 동안 46.5% 하락(2022년 60% 이상 하락 포함)으로 어려움을 겪었다. 테슬라의 큰 비중과 그에 따른 주가 하락은 이를 추적하는 ETF들과 함께 이 시장 지수의 성과에 부담을 주었다.
테슬라가 S&amp;P 500에 편입된 날 테슬를 매수한 투자자들은 팡파르가 사라진 후 며칠 또는 몇 달 후에 테슬라를 더 잘 매수했을 수도 있다.
2020년 12월 21일에 테슬라 주식에 1,000달러를 투자했다면, 분할 조정 가격이 222.83달러인 경우 4.89주의 주식을 구매할 수 있었다. 오늘 테슬라 주식 가격이 243.92달러일 때, 이 1,000달러 투자액은 1,192.77달러의 가치가 있다. 이는 거의 4년 동안 19.3%의 수익률을 나타낸다. 아래의 <a href="https://bzresearch.myclickfunnels.com/benzinga-pro-content-webinar-registration/?utm_source=BZprocontent092024&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1">Benzinga Pro 차트</a>에서도 확인할 수 있다.

비교를 위해, 같은 1,000달러를 S&amp;P 500을 추적하는 SPY에 투자했다면, ETF의 주식을 2.64주 구매할 수 있었다. 오늘 이 1,000달러 투자액은 1,507.39달러로, 같은 기간 동안 50.7% 상승한 것이다.
다음은 (What&#8217;s Next): 팔란티어와 델은 올해 초부터 주가가 상승세를 보였으며, S&amp;P 500 지수에 추가된다고 발표되었을 때 주가가 급등했다. 이러한 움직임은 단기적일 수 있으며, 투자자들은 주식이 이제 시장 지수에 포함되었다고 해서 금요일이나 월요일에 단순히 상승하지 않을 것임을 인지해야 한다.
프리덤 캐피털 마켓(Freedom Capital Markets)의 수석 시장 전략가 제이 우즈(Jay Woods)는 S&amp;P 500 리밸런싱 이전의 주간 <a href="https://jaywoods.substack.com/">뉴스레터</a>에서 최근 사례들을 공유했다. 리밸런싱은 전통적으로 3월, 6월, 9월 및 12월의 세 번째 금요일에 발생한다. 일부 추가는 인수합병이 완료되었을 때 이전 구성원을 교체하기 위해 발생한다.
<ul>
<li>룰루레몬 애틀라티카(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LULU#NASDAQ">LULU</a>): 2023년 10월에 추가되었다. 이 소식이 전해진 후 10% 급등했으나, 3일 후에는 하락세를 보였고 포함 당일은 별다른 이벤트가 없었다고 우즈가 말했다.</li>
<li>우버 테크놀로지스(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>): 2023년 12월에 주식이 추가되었다. 이 소식이 전해진 후 8% 상승했으나, 2주 후에는 상승분을 모두 반납했다.</li>
<li>슈퍼 마이크로 컴퓨터(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>): S&amp;P 500 추가가 발표되었을 때 주식은 27% 상승했고, 나중에 2024년 3월 공식적으로 주식이 추가되었을 때 주가는 10%만 상승했다. 주식이 추가된 이후 주가는 하락했다.</li>
</ul>
&#8220;현재 PLTR는 발표 이후 17.3% 상승했으며, 델의 주가는 12.1% 상승했다. 금요일 마감까지는 하락세를 보일 것으로 예상되지만, 다음 실적 주기를 앞둔 몇 주 내에는 최근 추세로 돌아갈 것&#8221;이라고 우즈가 앞서 월요일에 말했다.
우즈는 S&amp;P 500 지수에 추가되는 것이 저주라는 주장을 하는 시장 애호가들이 있다고 언급했으며, 이는 테슬라와 슈퍼 마이크로가 위에서 설명한 바와 같다고 설명했다.
&#8220;대부분의 추가는 긍정적인 성과를 보였고, 이후의 추세와 정상 활동으로 돌아갔다.&#8221;
팔란티어와 델에게는 시간이 지나야 이 추가가 저주인지 아니면 주식의 더 큰 성장으로 이어지는 정상적인 사건인지 알 수 있을 것이다.
PLTR, DELL 가격 움직임: 팔란티어의 주식은 금요일 1.00% 상승한 37.20달러에 마감되었다. 52주 거래 범위는 13.68달러에서 37.35달러다. 이 주식은 올해 들어 124.37% 상승했다.
델의 주식은 금요일 0.23% 하락 117.50달러에 마감되었으며, 52주 거래 범위는 63.90달러에서 179.70달러이다.  주식은 올해 들어 57.11% 상승했다.

룰루레몬 애틀라티카(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LULU#NASDAQ">LULU</a>)가 목요일 시장 마감 후 2분기 재무 결과를 발표했다. 이 발표로 주가는 시간외 거래에서 5% 상승했다. 다음은 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/08/b40637610/lululemon-athletica-inc-announces-second-quarter-fiscal-2024-results">보고서 요약</a>이다.
2분기 실적: 룰루레몬은 2분기 매출을 23억 7,100만 달러로 보고했는데 이는 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">컨센서스 추정치</a>인 24억 9,000만 달러를 밑돌았다. 이 애슬레저 회사는 2분기 주당 이익이 3.15달러로 분석가 추정치인 주당 2.94달러를 넘어섰다.
총 매출은 전년 대비 7% 증가했으며 총 비교 매출은 ​​전년 대비 2% 증가했다. 아메리카의 순매출은 전년 대비 1% 증가했으며, 해외 매출은 전년 대비 29% 증가했다.
룰루레몬의 전체 매장 수는 해당 기간 동안 10개의 신규 직영 매장을 오픈한 후 분기말 현재 721개이다. 재고는 전년 대비 14% 감소한 14억 달러를 기록했다. 이 회사는 현금 및 등가물 16억 달러로 분기를 마감했다.
"2분기에 룰루레몬은 해외 비즈니스 전반에 걸쳐 지속적인 강점을 바탕으로 매출과 이익 성장을 이루었다. 미국에서 우리 팀들은 계속해서 제품 구색을 최적화하고 시장에서 기회를 창출하는 데 계속 집중하고 있다"고 룰루레몬의 CEO인 캘빈 맥도널드(Calvin McDonald)가 말했다.
&#8220;앞으로 우리는 파워 오브 쓰리(Power of Three) ×2 성장 계획을 실행하면서 우리 앞에 놓인 긴 여정에 대해 자신감을 느낀다.&#8221;
전망: 룰루레몬의 Power of Three ×2 성장 계획은 사업을 2021년 62억 5천만 달러에서 2026년까지 125억 달러로 두 배로 늘릴 것을 목표로 한다. 이 회사는 자사의 성장 전략에 2021년 대비 남성복, 전자상거래 두 배, 해외 순매출을 4배 늘리겠다는 계획이 포함되어 있다고 밝혔다.
룰루레몬은 3분기 매출을 23억 4,000만~23억 6,500만달러로 예상하고 있다. 이 회사는 3분기 이익을 주당 2.68~2.73달러로 예상하고 있다.
2024년 전체 매출은 추정치 106억 1,800만 달러에 비해 103억 7,500만 달러에서 104억 7,500만 달러 사이가 될 것으로 예상된다. 이 회사는 연간 이익이 주당 14달러 추정치에 비해 주당 13.95~14.15달러 사이가 될 것으로 예상하고 있다.
룰루레몬의 주식이 회사의 매출 부진과 연간 전망 부진에 반응하여 매도세가 발생한 것으로 보인다.
LULU 주가 움직임: 룰루레몬의 주식은 목요일 애프터마켓에서 5.02% 상승한 272.00달러에 거래되었다.

룰루레몬: 2분기 매출 예상 하회, 이익 예측 초과 및 약한 3분기 전망에도 주가는 상승

Invesco QQQ Trust, 시리즈 1(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>)이 추적하는 기술주 중심의 나스닥 100은 목요일 2.5% 상승하여 마감하여, 6거래일 연속 긍정적인 세션을 기록했으며, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/08/40135090/old-school-summer-risk-off-vix-up-over-50-nasdaq-100-enters-correction-chipmakers-officially-in-" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">월초 매도세로</a> 인해 지수가 조정 영역에 들어간 후 강력한 반등을 기록했다.
지난 6거래일 동안 9%의 랠리를 보인 이 지수는 2022년 11월 이후 최고의 6일 연속 상승을 기록하며, 하락세에 기술주를 매수할 기회에 뛰어든 트레이더들 사이에 낙관적인 감정이 여전히 살아 있음을 보여준다.
기술적인 관점에서 목요일 세션은 나스닥 100 지수가 7월 24일 50일 이동평균 아래로 떨어졌다가 다시 50일 이동평균선 위로 상승하면서 중요한 체크포인트가 되었다.

기술 산업 내에서는 VanEck Semiconductor ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMH#NYSE">SMH</a>)가 지난 6일 동안 16% 상승하는 등 반도체 주식이 가장 큰 상승세를 보였으며, 2022년 말 이후 가장 강력한 행진을 기록했다.
이달 초 표면화된 경기 침체 우려의 완화는 주식 시장, 특히 이달 초 가장 큰 타격을 입었던 기술주에서 회복을 이끄는 주요 촉매제가 되었다.
미국 경제는 8월 초 일부 경제 데이터, 특히 실망스러운 7월 고용 보고서에서 제시된 것처럼 부진한 것으로 보이지는 않았다.
신규 실업수당 청구 건수는 지난 2주 동안 예상치 않게 감소했으며, 이는 7월 실업률이 4.1%에서 4.3%로 증가한 것이 더 심각한 노동 시장 문제의 징후라기보다는 단지 일시적인 변칙에 불과한 것인지에 대한 합리적인 의심을 불러일으킨다.
7월 소매판매도 예상을 크게 뛰어넘어 전월 대비 1%의 견고한 증가세를 보였다. 이는 2023년 1월 이후 가장 빠른 속도이다. 경기 침체 위기에 처한 경제에서 기대할 수 있는 것과는 정확히 다르다.
