WATCH

She's surprised that TJX's numbers (and retail) are up. After all, you have to go to their stores to spend; they don't have much e-retailing. She's looking at this as well as luxury clothing retailing. Louis Vuitton is down 25% since the start of February probably because people feel less wealthy than they were. She suspects this feeling extends to the lowest-end customer, too. Retail stocks should be cheap, but those with good balance sheets will be fine.

BUY

Allan Tong’s Discover Picks Reopening retail stocks have slid lately, so this a buying opportunity. TJX hit $73.78 on May 7 and now trades below $65. One caveat, though, is that TJX’s PE now stands at 52.7x, higher than the sector’s 32.5x. Attribute their PE to high growth expectations, but analysts foresee a forward PE of 22.94x. To be prudent, buy an initial position on a pullback, then see how TJX performs before buying a second tranche. Read 3 Retail Stocks to Buy Now: Ready, Set, Shop for our full analysis.

COMMENT

It has a poor online presence and has the wrong inventory. Its footprint isn't designed for social distancing whereas Costco aisles are so wide you can drive car down them. The stock has been bouncing, helped by getting inventory from dying retailers. This will be in great shape once the pandemic is under control and people can safely shop again. Up 2.5% today on hopeful vaccine news. so the market is impatient.

TOP PICK

Jan. 23 to March 31 is seasonality. People have been down on retail for so long because of the Amazon effect. But TJX sources its merchandise from ailing brick-and-mortar stores to sell at wide margins. TJX has done well. January to March seasonality has been strong in recent years. Chart looks good, so seasonality is likely to repeat. (Analysts’ price target is $65.15)

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Apr 12/18, Up 34%) Their ability to be very nimble, to change inventory quickly helps the bottom line. In an economy that could slow down, you want to own a company like this. They are expanding internationally also. People like shopping at Winners.

clothing stores

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jan 14/19, Up 12%) TJX runs the Winners discount clothing stores--in recessions people shop at downmarket chains like this. Late-January to end-March is their seasonality and it outperformed this year.

clothing stores

BUY

TJX is best in breed and they'll always have an offering that isn't online and is offered in shops. They turn their inventory weekly. There's always a new deal. A great model. Free cash flow is strong and has really competent management. Note that retail tends not to be good late-cycle, but TJX has great numbers. It's hard to not like them, but definitely this is defensive.
