It’s Time To Shop For Lululemon Athletica

Thomas Hughes

After falling more than 31% from the all-time high set in late 2021 shares of Lululemon Athletica (NASDAQ: LULU) are ready to rebound. The market caved in the wake of the updated Q4 guidance and may move lower but we don’t think so. The market caved but on the charts, it looks like capitulation and capitulation is an opportunity for investors looking to ride the next rally.

Mixed Results Sends AZZ, Inc Lower

Thomas Hughes

Demand for metals, metal products, and metal-related services is high throughout the supply chain so we are not surprised to see AZZ, Inc (NYSE: AZZ) performing well. We are surprised, dismayed rather, to see those same forces driving the business hindering the results as well.

Earnings Sparks Short-Covering In WD-40 Company

Thomas Hughes

WD-40 Company (NASDAQ: WDFC) produced a mixed FQ1/Calander Q1 but the results were strong enough to spark short-covering. With the short-interest sitting at over 12% coming into January there is quite a bit of fuel for this fire, enough perhaps to get this market back up to the all-time highs set in early 2021.
