Here's a look at trades that I've made so far this morning: Closing Out Our Trade of the Week This week's Trade of the Week was August $118 puts on the PowerShares QQQ ETF , which were set to expire at the close of trading today. This trade aimed to...

I expect retail stocks to fall today given the disappointing quarterly earnings and/or forward guidance this morning from Lowe's and Target . I'll be buying J.C. Penney on any weakness, and I remain short on Foot Locker , Nordstrom and Starbucks .
Dick's Sporting Goods bounced back to report strong 2Q results, taking market share from bankrupt former rival The Sports Authority.
Retail earnings and Federal Reserve speakers will be in focus for the week of August, 15.
Bloomberg Radio, listen! Bloomberg TV, watch! I have a crush on Twitter . Why the rally in retail may not be justified. Parts one and two and three. I am a buyer of Macy's down 10% (or so) from here. I initiated a small J.C. Penney long. I add...
Retail-related stocks have climbed mightily over the past two days, and there's a great deal of optimism regarding the U.S. consumer's state -- but I believe that such views aren't entirely justified. So do Bank of America Merrill Lynch researchers ...
Noticeable quarterly sales and profits disappointments from the Gap and Coach are taking the retail sector down fairly hard this morning. As a result, our shorts of Foot Locker and Nordstrom look delightful in the early going. At last check, FL was ...
Peter Boockvar expresses concerns this morning about consumer stocks. I share his worries, and I'm currently short on Foot Locker , Ford , General Motors , Nordstrom , Starbucks and several other consumer-oriented names: "My focus this week will be ...
Beware of false profits. Monday's "takeaway." Radian Group was up a second day in a row after a nice, 25%-plus run. Thank you, Barron's. My Trade of the Week, long SPDR S&P 500 ETF puts. Here's why... My take on the technicals. A deeper dive into...
I'm down to tag ends on the following shorts: The "B" shares of Berkshire Hathaway Coca-Cola Fastenal Foot Locker Lincoln National MetLife Netflix Nordstrom Starbucks Walt Disney Co.
My fellow Americans and Real Money Pro subscribers: Politics will weigh on the markets during the months leading up to the election. What, me, worry? Bank of America reports there is more than $13 trillion in negative-yielding sovereign debt now. T...
Well, the S&P 500 has closed at a new all-time high. I would have called this a quiet, range-bound session at 3 p.m. ET -- but at 3:15 p.m., we were near the day's highs. Buyers are clearly living higher and sellers living lower, but is a gloating b...
Here are my latest trades: I've added further to my long of Radian in the early going. Radian was last week's Trade of the Week, and I recently added it to my "Best Long Ideas" list. I've added to my shorts of Apple and Foot Locker this morning.
Growth Seeker's view of Under Armour runs counter to Morgan Stanley's bearish stance.
Slow day thus far, so I plan to leave early. I started the day by shorting the market and substantially raised my short exposure in the morning ramp. I felt so strongly about an overvalued market that I added SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY), iShares Russell...
One note to start: I constantly try to be ahead of Group Stink, which is pervasive in the business media, and if I am not, please inform me! I don't want to write the obvious or mimic consensus through a rear-view mirror. That would not be value-add...
The 10-year U.S. note yield hit 1.35% this morning, the lowest level since 1953. Raise your hand if you think this is a bullish signpost for the global economy. (I don't see many hands being raised!) With the U.S. dollar strengthening and corporate ...
My month was made by Double D's comments, and I mean it. At my core I am a softie, and D's sweet words tugged at my heart. I shared them with my family. Bottom line to me on the markets: This week's events reset global economic and profits growth l...
My 3 a.m. project this morning: I am not banking on banks. Today's stock performance could be a tad disquieting to bank bulls, though not conclusive (it's only one day!). Citigroup (C) and Bank of America (BAC) were barely higher on the day. To me, ...
Perhaps more than ever, the market has no memory from day. Stocks closed up by 35 handles and ended at the day's high. What were the odds of this occurring at yesterday's close? Enough said. I got lucky and got slightly net long and covered a lot of...
Nike (NKE) beat by a penny on the bottom line but missed on the top line. The shares are down $3.50, or 6.6% after hours. Peak Sneakers. It should help my Foot Locker (FL) short tomorrow.
Nike's stock is oversold, but Jim Cramer says his favorite play in the footwear group right now is Foot Locker, which has come down a lot.
I started the day with a two-part opening missive that took a while to write this morning, "The Big Chill." It's here and here. Friday and Monday represented the worst two-day drop in the senior averages since last August. I guess it's clear, with t...
