Hello everyone, Yesterday was more fun in the Europa league as Manchester United played Draw with AZ and took home with a 1 points and now they are leading the table with 4 points. Manchester United has to win their next match to secure their position to qualify to the next stage. The group that was given to Manchester United was an easy go team but look at what they are doing. Truely this shows that the team is really not in a good form. Lazio did well to do their comeback thing to win the match again Rennes. It was really sad when I saw Rennes leading by 1 goal in the first half before they went on the half time break. But I think the peep talk that was given to them worked nice so when they came back from the half time break they did what they can to make sure that they take home the 3 points. Nice game to Lazio. Manchester United on the Other had has alot of work to do else if we qualify to the next stage of the Europa League we might get off from the Europa League. Because with this kind of performance is not really showing that the team can win something this season.
Forever 21 is an American fashion retailer that sells accessories, beauty products, home goods and clothing for women, men and children, but the retailer is better known for the “wears” for teens, tweens and young adults.
Forever 21 was founded in 1984 and during the 2000s, went hard opening up bigger and bigger store in the mall. When it was all said and done, Forever 21 now has about 550 out of 800 stores located in malls. But you know what with only 16% of their total sales coming from the web and mall traffic continuing to dwindle, this week Forever 21 filed for bankruptcy protection, and announced that it was ceasing operations in 40 countries and closing most of its international and 178 of its US stores last week.
Simon Property Group (NYSE: SPG) is a global leader in the ownership of premier shopping, dining, entertainment and mixed-use destinations and an S&P 100 company (Simon Property Group, NYSE: SPG). Their properties span across North America, Europe and Asia provide community gathering places for millions of people every day and generate billions in annual sales.
Because Simon Property Group’s CEO David Simon fears such events like Forever 21 filing for bankruptcy, they have decided to dabble online as well. They partnering with other companies, essentially its tenants, and will take a cut of sales with the tenants responsible for fulfilling orders.
Now honesty, Simon Property should of done something like this years ago…maybe they might have had a chance. But when Forever 21 is your seventh largest tent in terms of rent, it puts Simon Property in a bad spot.
The Census Bureau of the Department of Commerce announced today that the estimate of U.S. retail e-commerce sales for the second quarter of 2019, adjusted for seasonal variation, but not for price changes, was $146.2 billion, an increase of 4.2 percent (±0.9%) from the first quarter of 2019. Total retail sales for the second quarter of 2019 were estimated at $1,361.8 billion, an increase of 1.8 percent (±0.2%) from the first quarter of 2019. The second quarter 2019 e-commerce estimate increased 13.3 percent (±1.6%) from the second quarter of 2018 while total retail sales increased 3.2 percent (±0.5%) in the same period. E-commerce sales in the second quarter of 2019 accounted for 10.7 percent of total sales.
The tide turned for Simon Property Group when price broke the long term up trendline from 2009 accompanied by negative divergence.
One of my favorite set-ups is to then wait for the pull back, in this case the short at the monthly supply at $185.
And price gave potential sellers another opportunity to short at the monthly supply at $166. Nothing changes for me, the target remains the monthly demand at $115. Based on the secular shift to online retail, I’m confident price will get there within the next 1-2 yrs.

Hello guys, it was a lucky day for Liverpool As they took a lead of 3 goals to 1 in the first half of the game. When they came back from the Half time break Salzburg applied some full force to equalize and they did it to make it 3 -3 but since Liverpool has this speedster and he is capable of doing wonders he did it again by putting Liverpool on top again by scoring in the 69th minutes of the game thus Mohammed Salah and the Assist was their fantastic Striker Firmino. Liverpool is now in good form that if care is not taking they might take the Champions League again and also take the Epl. They lost their first game of the Champions League so they have to work harder to get to the top as they have 3 points now and at the 3rd Position of the Table. But when you come to epl they have played 7 matches unbeaten so this should show you how serious they are this season. Nice game from them. Today is Europa league and I will bring you more details and News on it thank you and have a great day.
Barcelona has done well to win their game against Inter Milan. When the game started they were down by 1 goal to 0 in the 3 minute of the game. And when they went on half time it was still 1-0. But you have to know that when a team comes to Camp Nou. For that team to win will not be an easy task for the team. You will have to struggle more before you can win and this time too Messi started the game so it was much of more confidence in the Barcelona team that they can do something. Low and Behold they were able to comeback in the second half from and Assist from Vidal and the goal scorer was Suarez that was in the 58 minutes of the second half. Then getting to the last minute of the game thus 84 minutes of the game Messi also gave an assist to Suarez to increase the tally. So it became 2-1 against Inter Milan. Messi was not able to Level up the Record of CR7 with the scoring of 33 different teams in the Champions League. So as it stands now CR7 is now the only player to level up with Raul the number one striker for Real Madrid. Nice game from Barcelona Tho and a great win for them.
Juventus won their match 3-0 as Cr7 scored the closing goal for his team Juventus. There was a record set by the former Real Madrid Star Raul. He has scored against 33 different teams in the Champions League during his career. CR7 scoring the final goal for Juventus has also leveled up the Record which was set by Raul. Now CR7 has also scored against 33 different Teams in the Champions league. Which he will still continue to score more goals and set new record. When you check on the Barcelona star Lionel Messi he too has scored against 32 different teams in the Champions League. Today Messi can level up with CR7 when he is able to scored against the Seria A team Inter Milan. This team has been a challenging team for Messi to score against. And now they are meeting them in the Champions league at Camp Nou. We will see how it will turn out. Champions League Day. Let us all get ready for the matches.
Hello everyone, Today is another for all of us. Champions League continues. And Yesterday too some of the Champions League matches went on. Tottenham played played Bayern yesterday. During the first Half Tottenham showed Bayern that they will score them and took the lead with a nice strike from Son. Kimmich didnt allow that lead to proceed so he gave a nice placement straight to the net of Tottenham making it draw. The goal was really nice and fantastic. The way he dribbled the player and didnt move the ball again and placed it at the right bottom corner of the goal keeper, everyone in the room was clapping. Getting to the half time of the game. Lewandoski gave a nice skills which was marked by Champions league Instagram page as the Skills of the Day. And gave a nice pass but that one didnt go through so he has to come and struggle for the ball as the got the ball it was a nice turning with a shoot straight into the net. So when they went for Half Time Bayern was leading by 2 goals to 1. When they came back from the Half time Bayern added another 5 goals and then Tottenham scored 1 to their 1 making it 2. So when the match came to an end it was 7-2 against Tottenham. Thank you for your time more news coming.
Natural gas put in a hammer, reversal candle, which usually occurs at the bottom of a down trend. On the daily chart, price formed a demand zone, on top of a demand zone. Thus, the chart suggested to go long during a pull back to the daily demand zones with a target at the daily supply at $2.700.
Price never pull back, but did hit the daily supply and is falling now. Because the demand zones were never hit, they are still in play.
The United States Natural Gas Fund (UNG) is an exchange-traded security designed to track percentage changes in the price of natural gas delivered to Henry Hub, Louisiana, the main U.S. benchmark for natural gas.
Yesterday I noticed that the Smart Money bought over 29,000 of the Nov 15 call options with a strike price at $21.
Because UNG follows the natural gas futures, the charts look very similar.
And based on the seasonality of natural gas price acting bullish from the Fall to the Winter from a technical standpoint, but also from a fundamental standpoint, I love the trade. Thus, the Smart Money should have no problems being profitable on this trade.
Hello everyone good morning, Hope we are all doing great. Today is another day for all of us. Let us all be protected by the God Almighty. Today I would like to discuss something small on the Manchester United vs Arsenal match they played yesterday. This match was nice to watch. But one thing most people has to take note of is that Manchester United has not kept a clean sheet when we started the Epl so when Manchester United scored first I told a friend sitting beside me that if Manchester United dont score again they will by all means concede and the game might end up draw. True talk it came to pass as I said. De Gea tried all that he could to keep a clean sheet but most of the mistakes comes from the defenses and most of the them comes from Linderlof. The pass that he missed was not supposed to missed but see he missed it and that was the second time he missed a ball and it was nearly a goal but De Gea helped to save to balls on target. Also Rashford has to sit at the bench for some couple of matches to learn some lesson because he is really wasting more of Manchester United chances. So that we will try the Greenwood guy and see how he will also play. The team really needs a full change in most part of the position. Our next game is between Liverpool and if we play like this they will score us more. I will end here thank you for your time have a great day.
Just like Netflix disrupted the at home movie streaming market, Stitch Fix is disrupting apparel retail by allow you to choose your own clothes from a selection of clothing. Stitch Fix is your own stylist on a budget. They send you five items at a time based on an interface through which you select your style preferences, budget, and fit. Customers only pay for what they want to keep and return the rest for a service fee of $20 which goes towards the purchase.
Similar to Netflix who uses technology to get to know their customers, Stitch Fix has put their spin on technology as well with an interactive, mobile and web-based game with clients that we call Style Shuffle.
Stitch Fix was launched in 2011. The company has seen significant growth since, with 2.7 million customers and more than $1 billion in revenue. The person running Stitch Fix is founder Katrina Lake and is the youngest woman ever to take a company public.
Stitch Fix’s debut on the stock exchange last November, with an opening price of $16.90. The stock more than double before settling back to the high $20s. But since its existence the stock price has been more volatile than Elon Musk’s twits.
And Tuesday should be no different when they announce their fourth quarter earnings after the market close. According to The Motley Fool, the 3 things that investors should pay attention to are the following:
The biggest change Stitch Fix made in the fourth quarter was its May launch in the U.K., the company’s first foray into a foreign country. On the third-quarter earnings call, shortly after the U.K. launch, CEO Katrina Lake sounded optimistic about the launch, saying “it seems like there is a lot of excitement from the [British] market” for Stitch Fix’s service. Look for commentary and updates on the U.K. business, as Stitch Fix’s results there will likely inform the brand’s ability to penetrate other international markets.
Despite the fact that Stitch Fix surged following its last two earnings reports, the stock is actually trading near all-time lows today. The most closely watched metric from the company has been revenue growth, the best indicator of the company’s ability to truly change how people shop for clothes. Pay attention to the mix of revenue growth between new and existing clients in the upcoming report.
The most influential number in the earnings report, however, will likely be the company’s revenue guidance for fiscal 2020. This time a year ago, management forecast adjusted EBITDA of $20 million to $40 million for 2019, and the company is now targeting the high end of that range for the full year. With the investments to kick off the U.K. market now in the past, we could see a jump in adjusted EBITDA for 2020.
But the Smart Money is not having any of that. On Monday they bought over 5,000 put options with a $14 strike price that expire on Friday.
With price at $19, that represents a potential 26% decline in price, but if they are right, the trade would be worth up to 500% – 700% return. And it would mean breach the weekly demand at $19 as well.
Will the Smart Money be right, we shall find out Tuesday?
