This summary was created by AI, based on 24 opinions in the last 12 months.

Lululemon Athletica (LULU) is facing significant challenges in a transformed retail environment, with its stock plummeting 8.5% following a disappointing earnings report and a 45% decline this year. The company's transition from athletic gear to daywear has raised concerns about its market position, especially as competition has intensified from brands offering similar products at lower price points. Analysts note that despite a strong brand presence globally, the North American same-store sales have seen a decline of 5%. While there's an opportunity for long-term turnaround, many experts advise caution, given the company's ongoing struggles and the potential for continued stock volatility. Valuation is perceived as attractive, but the unclear trajectory of growth and competitive pressures pose risks for investors.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Sep 24/24, Up 44.4%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

Our PAST TOP PICK with LULU is progressing well.  To remain disciplined, we recommend trailing up the stop (from $267) to $310 at this time.  

BUY

Shares soared 16% today after reporting. China was a key driver. Inventories and loyalty program are doing well. An excellent quarter. They bought back a lot of shares.

DON'T BUY

Tries to stay away from specialty retailers, though LULU might be an exception. Seems to have bottomed out and is coming back. Tough business. He'd rather own an AMZN.

RISKY

Started the year at $520, then lost 50% of its value. Starting a recovery, but losing steam. A possibility, but be very careful. Not a lot of volume on the buying, certainly not as much as on the downside. Don't take a big position, $300 would be a good place to get out.

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

With three year revenue growth over 30%, we reiterate LULU as a TOP PICK.  Cash reserves are growing, while shares are aggressively bought back.  It trades at 21x earnings and supports a robust 43% ROE.  We recommend trailing up the stop (from $200) to $230, looking to achieve $316 -- upside potential of 16%.  Yield 0%

(Analysts’ price target is $315.86)
DON'T BUY

It is a large company with good products but some styles that are coming back are not their strength. Revenue is slowing down which is not good for any stock trading in the 50X, 40X or 30X range. Revenue guidance dropped in the last quarterly report. He prefers smaller size retailers.

BUY

Loves that their CEO just bought $1 million in shares. They will likely tighten their product offering, which is good. Shares are down 38% this year, bottoming last month. LULU offers the best product in their class, better than Nike or Under Armor.

DON'T BUY

Problem is so much competition in apparel. Nike has similar problems. Would avoid all apparel.

DON'T BUY

Consumers are fickle and tastes constantly change. Avoids this sector.

BUY

He's not a big fan of retail, though this one's the best of its kind. Inventory issues. Good brand and company, great products, executes well. Relatively cheap at these levels. Not a value trap. Has a specific audience, return customers. 

WATCH

He's definitely looking at it, exciting at these levels. Hiccup with Breezethrough over last couple of weeks, what will inventory write-downs be? EM penetration requires lower margins. Doesn't report until September. Worth doing your homework. Hoping they can right the ship and get back to growth. 

DON'T BUY

Used to be the hottest thing going. Long-term uptrend looks to be broken. Lows from 2022 are being tested. If it doesn't find support, you could see the much lower lows from 2020. If you already own, it's one of those mug's game stocks.
