Is the Post-Pandemic Retail Trade Dead? (ANF, AEO Earnings Edge)
Retail stocks are still in focus in this week’s Earnings Edge, but more specifically, the mall trade. This may be dated, but the early 2000s were red hot for both of the stocks I’m watching — Abercrombie & Fitch Co. (NYSE: ANF) and American Eagle Outfitters (NYSE: AEO).
Teens loved the new looks they offered, and their stores stay packed.
Back then, though, the mall was a central hangout. Times have changed since then.
