In Monday’s Blitz Daily, we take a look at shoe retailer Foot Locker ahead of the mid-week retail sales report.
Shares of the company dropped like a stone following its earnings event back on Nov. 19. Foot Locker reported third-quarter 2021 sales of nearly $2.2 billion, up 3.9% from the year-ago quarter and beating consensus estimates.
Unfortunately, the firm wasn’t able to calm supply chain fears heading into the holiday season. Since the report, shares have seen a 35% haircut.
A good showing from Wednesday’s retail sales report could be the shot in the arm the stock needs to break its three-week slide.
With shares closing in on 5% from their 2021 low, bulls are laying monster bets that the stock can run, with one trader dropping over $300,000 in premium on the Dec. 23 $43 strike calls!
And that’s not the only retail name seeing bullish action heading up to the report. I have two more must-see trades waiting for you below…
-
- Foot Locker Inc. (NYSE: FL): Dec. 23 $43 CALL.
- Macy’s Inc. (NYSE: M): Mar. 18, 2022, $26 CALL.
- Under Armour Inc. (NYSE: UAA): Dec. 31 $24 CALL
