Here's How Much You Would Have Made Owning Blackstone Stock In The Last 10 Years

Calls for President Joe Biden <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39540588/joe-bidens-debate-performance-triggers-democratic-panic-biden-sounds-hoarse-looks-tired-and-is-babbl">to step down</a> ahead of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/2024-electionhttps://www.benzinga.com/topic/2024-election">the 2024 election</a> and make way for another candidate, such as Vice President Kamala Harris, have grown. Yet, Biden remains vocally committed to the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39628794/biden-vs-trump-new-poll-shows-president-still-very-much-in-race-despite-debate-fiasco-but-final-outc">presidential race as of Friday</a>.
Meanwhile, the latest Morning Consult poll, conducted after the first presidential debate, saw Ex-President and presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump retake his lead.
What Happened: The new <a href="https://pro.morningconsult.com/trackers/2024-presidential-election-polling">poll </a>of nationally registered voters shows the following results, with the results from <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/06/39538536/trump-vs-biden-2024-presidential-candidates-tied-ahead-of-first-debate-abortion-hits-high-for-be">the June 25 poll</a> in parentheses:
<ul>
<li>Joe Biden: 43% (44%)</li>
<li>Donald Trump: 44% (44%)</li>
<li>Someone Else: 8% (8%)</li>
<li>Don't Know: 5% (4%)</li>
</ul>
Of the Democratic voters polled, 87% have Biden as their top pick. That&#8217;s in line with the previous poll. Eighty-nine percent of Republican voters polled have Trump as their top pick, which is in line with the previous poll.
Independent voters, who could decide the election, selected their 2024 pick as follows, with the June 25 results in parentheses:
<ul>
<li>Joe Biden: 33% (34%)</li>
<li>Donald Trump: 37% (37%)</li>
<li>Someone Else: 18% (18%)</li>
<li>Don't Know: 12% (11%)</li>
</ul>

Why It's Important: After <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/07/39620336/biden-contemplates-future-in-2024-race-after-poor-debate-showing-report">the recent debate performance</a>, Biden could lose support in election polls and the next Morning Consult poll could show a much different result.
While Biden only trails by one percentage point in the latest Morning Consult poll, his campaign won't like several findings.
<ul>
<li>68% of voters say Biden is too old for the presidency, compared to 64% before the debate. </li>
<li>Among Democratic voters, 50% said Biden was too old, up seven percentage points from before the debate.</li>
<li>The poll found that only 35% of voters consider Biden to be in good health, compared to 41% before the presidential debate.</li>
<li>63% of Democratic voters see Biden in good health, compared to 75% before the debate.</li>
<li>When asked if Biden is mentally fit, 37% of voters said yes, compared to 43% before the debate. </li>
<li>Among Democratic voters, 68% said Biden is mentally fit, down from 77% before the debate.</li>
</ul>
Biden being mentally fit hit the lowest score for all voters and Democrats since polling began in 2020.
For a ninth consecutive week, Biden's net favorability rating has been ahead of Trump's, marking Biden's longest streak since April 2023.
However, voters were 31 points more likely of having heard, read or seen something negative than positive about Biden after the debate. This marked Biden's worst buzz rating since tracking for the 2024 election began in November 2022.

Dozens of high-power business leaders, including Walmart Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMT#NYSE">WMT</a>) heir Christy Walton, have <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39641760/biden-vs-trump-incumbent-trails-by-widest-margin-in-this-election-cycle-but-more-than-half-unenthusi">signed a letter </a>to President Joe Biden asking him to give up his re-election bid, while praising his time in the Oval Office.
The letter, which was obtained by Bloomberg and signed by 168 executives and billionaires, credit Biden, 81, with "rescuing our democracy from the deepest threats it has known since the Civil War." 
But the letter, which came from the Leadership Now Project, also encouraged Biden to step aside by telling him, "to ensure that legacy is cemented, we ask that you pass the torch of leadership to the next generation of Democratic leaders by ending your reelection bid," Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-07-05/a-14-billion-walmart-heir-joins-novogratz-urging-biden-to-exit?srnd=homepage-americas&amp;sref=TBDibEcD">reported.</a>

Other signatories include Michael Novogratz, CEO of Galaxy Investment Partners,&nbsp;and&nbsp;Paul Tagliabue, former commissioner of the National Football League.
Walton, 75, is worth about $14 billion, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. The philanthropist is the widow of John T. Walton, the second son of Walmart Inc. founder Sam Walton.
 Walton, Novogratz and Tagliabue haven't donated to Biden's re-election campaign, Bloomberg reported.
The letter, which also told Biden that &#8220;nothing short of American democracy is at stake this November,&#8221; has come after Leadership Now <a href="https://www.leadershipnowproject.org/statement-a-new-nominee-to-protect-democracy">published </a>an unsigned statement on Wednesday that said business leaders have &#8220;heard from many individuals who share our deep concerns about the present course but fear speaking out.&#8221;
&#8220;But speaking out is our duty in a democracy and the time to do it is now,&#8221; Leadership Now said in its statement.
&#8220;We call on others to join us in making this urgent call.&#8221;
Leadership Now pointed to Biden&#8217;s performance in his June 27 debate with former President Donald Trump in requesting that the president give up his campaign for a second term.
&#8220;What we witnessed Thursday night in the presidential debate was deeply concerning,&#8221; the organization said.
&#8220;Donald Trump repeatedly lied, preyed on our worst fears and grievances, and refused to commit to accepting the 2024 election results. Unfortunately, President Biden failed to effectively make the case against Trump, and we now fear the risk of a devastating loss in November.&#8221;

Biden Should Step Aside, Say Business Leaders Including Walmart Heir

June&#8217;s Bureau of Labor Statistics jobs report <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/07/39646053/mixed-picture-for-fed-june-payrolls-rise-more-than-expected-unemployment-rate-ticks-up-wage-grow">shows unemployment rising</a>, signaling a continued slowing in the U.S. economy. 
University of Pennsylvania Wharton professor Jeremy Siegel reacted to the data, recommending the Federal Reserve to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/07/39648975/fed-needs-to-frontload-interest-rate-cuts-say-4-economists-labor-markets-cooling-">cut interest rates</a> in response.
What Happened: Siegel <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/video/2024/07/05/we-are-in-a-slowing-economy-says-whartons-jeremy-siegel.html">appeared</a> on CNBC on Friday afternoon to discuss Friday&#8217;s &#8220;weak report.&#8221;
&#8220;I think it&#8217;s really time for Fed Chairman [Jerome] Powell to tee up in the July meeting a cut in September, and maybe another one in November,&#8221; Siegel said. &#8220;I think inflation is definitely under control and I don&#8217;t want to see this slowing economy turn into something worse.&#8221;
Siegel referenced economist Claudia Sahm&#8216;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s/24/07/39649271/us-close-to-recession-warning-as-june-jobs-report-shows-rising-unemployment">leading &#8220;Sahm Rule&#8221;</a> as a means to predicting recessions. The threshold is met when the three-month moving average of the&nbsp;unemployment rate rises by 0.5% or more relative to the minimum of the three-month averages from the previous 12 months. 
June&#8217;s figure is very close to approaching the 0.50%. A recession still should not be considered likely, Siegel says, especially if a September rate cut by the Federal Reserve would forestall a recession.
&#8220;Why not be preemptive? The commodity market is under control, all the others are under control. We&#8217;ve talked so long about the fact that if they used realistic shelter costs in their CPI, they [inflation indicators] would be much lower than what they have now. I think he [Powell] can afford to bring us a more normal Fed Funds Rate in relationship to those long rates&#8230;&#8221;
Why it Matters: The market is currently predicting a 77% chance for a September interest rate cut with additional cuts possible in November, <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">according</a> to the CME Group.

Grown Rogue International Inc.(CSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GRIN#CSE">GRIN</a>) (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GRUSF#OTC">GRUSF</a>) has entered a secured drawdown promissory note agreement with ABCO Garden State, LLC, a New Jersey licensed cultivator. As of Friday, July 5th, Grown Rogue owns 44% of ABCO, with an option to acquire an additional 26% of ABCO, subject to regulatory approval.
On May, 31, Grown Rogue, obtained licensing approval with the New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory Commission (CRC) and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/06/39188107/craft-cannabis-co-grown-rogue-expands-in-this-booming-east-cost-weed-market-via-new-acquisition" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">closed its first option to acquire 44% of ABCO</a>.
&#8220;As we reach the final stages of Phase I construction, this additional capital will be used to finish construction and provide the necessary working capital to become operational," stated Obie Strickler, CEO of Grown Rogue. "Our Phase I work has included many of the necessary improvements required to accelerate Phase II completion such as full panel installation, the purchase of on-site HVAC equipment, and the fulfillment of fire safety requirements.&#8221;
The news comes on the heels of the company reorganizing shares to keep<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/06/39489016/craft-weed-company-grown-rogue-reorganizes-shares-to-keep-its-foreign-private-issuer-status-in-t" rel="noreferrer noopener"> its foreign private issuer status in the US</a>.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Key Takeaways</h2>
<ul>
<li>Grown Rogue will lend up to $3,000,000 to ABCO under the note agreement to support ongoing construction and working capital as ABCO ramps up its operations. On June 25, 2024, Grown Rogue advanced $500,000 to ABCO, representing the first drawdown.</li>
<li>The note has preferential repayment, and interest on the outstanding principal will accrue at 10.5% per annum.</li>
<li>The note, including all accrued and unpaid interest, shall be due and payable on June 25, 2025.</li>
</ul>
&#8220;Phase I remains substantially on schedule and on budget, with final occupancy approvals expected later this month and sales anticipated to commence in the fourth quarter," Strickler continued. "Phase II construction is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2025, with sales anticipated to commence in the second quarter of 2025. With both Phases complete and a total flowering canopy of ~16,000 square feet, we expect to be producing in excess of 1,000 pounds of whole flower per month in New Jersey.&#8221;
New Jersey's Attractive Potential
According to the New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory Commission, the state reported over $800 million in cannabis sales in 2023, growing more than 44% year-over-year. The fourth quarter sales reached a record with $220 million in sales, growing 7% sequentially. Furthermore, the state's recreational cannabis revenue topped $201 million in early 2024, a substantial rise from the previous year. This boost comes as the number of dispensaries jumped from 24 to 130 within a year, putting New Jersey on track to <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/06/39271024/new-jerseys-cannabis-market-excels-as-new-york-continues-to-face-setbacks" rel="noreferrer noopener">becoming a billion-dollar market</a>.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Price Action</h2>
Grown Rogue shares traded 48.87% lower at 65 cents per share at the time of writing Monday after the close.

Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin Struggle As Mt Gox Repayments Begin: Crypto Analyst Says BTC 'Could Drop To $47,000 From Here'

The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>) CEO Bob Iger rejoined the company in the CEO role in<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/22/11/29798775/bob-iger-returns-as-disney-ceo-after-reports-of-growing-rift-with-bob-chapek"> November 2022.</a>
In addition to leading Disney, Iger may soon add sports team owner to his list of titles.
What Happened: Disney is<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/sports"> no stranger to sports </a>with its ESPN brand and previous ownership of the Anaheim Mighty Ducks (NHL) and Anaheim Angels (MLB). The company's CEO is nearing a deal to acquire a stake in women's soccer team Angel City, which competes in the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL).
Angel City would be valued at $300 million in the deal, according to a <a href="https://www.semafor.com/article/07/02/2024/disney-ceo-bob-iger-and-willow-bay-to-by-soccer-team">report </a>from Semafor. This would make the team the most valuable women's sports team in the world.
Iger and his wife Willow Bay would buy the controlling stake of Angel City FC according to the report, which would make the duo have a larger stake than <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/22/12/29963917/reddit-co-founder-alexis-ohanian-prints-mean-tweets-and-screenshots-how-he-uses-them-as-motivation">current controlling shareholder </a>Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian. 
Unlike many other sports teams, there is no majority holder of the team. The unique ownership structure may have led to recent squabbles among owners, with several of them upset over increased spending. The team hired Moelis &amp; Co to seek an investor to assume control of the team's board, as <a href="https://www.latimes.com/sports/soccer/angel-city-fc/story/2024-03-16/angel-city-seeking-new-owner-for-controlling-stake-of-franchise">reported </a>by the Los Angeles Times.
The Bay-Iger group will invest at least $50 million in the team, according to the report. Bay and Iger beat out several interested parties including former Milwaukee Bucks (NBA) owner Marc Lasry and Avie Glazer, who is a member of the Glazer family, who own soccer team Manchester United (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MANU#NYSE">MANU</a>), and the NFL's Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
A pitch deck from Bay and Iger shared by Semafor showed the duo highlighting their 25 years of residency in Los Angeles, ability to lead media companies and growth initiatives for the team of expanding international reach and connecting the team to big area events in Los Angeles.

Why It's Important: Sports teams have consistently achieved record valuations and demonstrated strong performance in recent years.
Angel City counts a handful of celebrities including Natalie Portman, America Ferrera and Eva Longoria as owners along with former soccer players Abby Wambach and Mia Hamm, and other athletes including Serena Williams and Billie Jean King. &nbsp;
Disney is among the media rights partners with the NWSL as part of an overall $240 million three-year <a href="https://www.nwslsoccer.com/news/nwsl-announces-landmark-media-partnerships-with-cbs-sports-espn-prime-video-and-scripps-sports">deal </a>signed in November 2023 by ESPN, Paramount Global (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PARA#NASDAQ">PARA</a>)(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PARAA#NASDAQ">PARAA</a>), Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) and Scripps Company (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SSP#NASDAQ">SSP</a>). It is currently unclear how Iger's relationship with Disney and the team would impact the rights deal.
A <a href="https://www.sportico.com/feature/nwsl-soccer-team-value-ranking-1234740972/">Sportico </a>ranking of NWSL teams listed Angel City with a $180 million valuation in 2023, double the next highest team San Diego Wave, who were listed at $90 million. The Wave were sold for a then-league record $113 million earlier this year.
Angel City has an estimated $31 million in annual revenue in the Sportico ranking, which is nearly double that of San Diego at $16.3 million.
Sports teams continue to attract interest from billionaires and investors, with Jeff Bezos potentially selling Amazon shares to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/sports/24/07/39621460/jeff-bezos-to-sell-5-billion-in-amazon-shares-could-he-be-raising-cash-for-seattle-seahawks-purcha">buy an NFL team.</a>
NFL star Patrick Mahomes is a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/education/23/02/30870247/5-things-you-might-not-know-about-kansas-city-chiefs-qb-patrick-mahomes">co-owner of NWSL team</a> Kansas City Current.
Investors looking for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/public-sports-teams">publicly traded stocks</a> with exposure to sports ownership have limited options. A few soccer related options are Manchester United and Juventus (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JVTSF#OTC">JVTSF</a>).
Ares Management Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARES#NYSE">ARES</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/08/33602864/want-to-invest-in-lionel-messis-mls-success-theres-a-new-way-to-get-a-stake-in-inter-miami">is an investor</a> in Inter Miami, the Major League Soccer (MLS) team that landed soccer superstar Lionel Messi last year.
MLS team Toronto FC counts Rogers Communications (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RCI#NYSE">RCI</a>) and BCE Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BCE#NYSE">BCE</a>) each as 37.5% team owners.

In a bid to support pro-crypto candidates in the upcoming U.S. Senate elections, crypto investment firm Multicoin Capital announced Friday it will match donations made in Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>) tokens to the Sentinel Action Fund up to $1 million over the next 10 days.
&#8220;Over the next 10 days, Multicoin Capital will match all SOL donations to Sentinel Action Fund up to $1 million in value,&#8221; Multicoin Capital partner Kyle Samani <a href="https://x.com/KyleSamani/status/1809238868605988959">said.</a>
The Sentinel Action Fund (SAF) is a political action committee (PAC) dedicated to electing pro-crypto candidates to the U.S. Senate.
Under the help of Jessica Anderson, the SAF&#8217;s focus is on backing conservative candidates who advocate for responsible crypto innovation in America.
Multicoin Capital's matching initiative is designed to amplify the impact of contributions.

This initiative aims to double the impact of each contribution, supporting the Sentinel Action Fund's mission to increase the number of pro-crypto senators like Senator Bill Hagerty (R-TN) .
Highlighting the importance of political engagement, Samani stated, &#8220;We realize that political engagement matters, and it starts with supporting the candidates who believe America needs to remain free for innovation.&#8221; 
He emphasized the need for elected leaders who understand the crypto industry and can advocate for good legislation, policy results, and agency nominees.
Donations can be made through the SAF's website, and the process has been simplified using a new donation tool called Blink, created by SayDialect.
&#8220;Blinks lets you donate directly from X. If you have a Backpack wallet, you can use this Blink today. Support for Phantom wallets should be in the next release,&#8221; explained Samani.

Multicoin Capital Announces $1M Match For Pro-Crypto Senate Candidates In Solana Donations

lululemon athletica inc. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/lulu#NASDAQ">LULU</a>), a distinguished name in the athleisure and high-performance sportswear world, has often been lauded for its innovative products and strong brand loyalty. However, the stock recently experienced a notable dip in the past month, prompting investors to question whether now is the ideal time to buy.
lululemon&#39;s share price has experienced a downward trend, shedding a notable percentage in the past month. lululemon&#39;s share price has rolled down 7% in the past month, the broader industry has dropped 6.6%, and the Consumer Discretionary sector has declined 0.5%. The stock also traded shy of the S&amp;P 500&#39;s gain of 3.6% in the same period.

At the current price of $300.32, the stock trades closer to its 52-week low of $293.03 reached on May 28, 2024. The current stock price reflects a 42% discount from its 52-week high mark of $516.39.
Furthermore, LULU is trading below its 50 and 200-day moving averages, signaling potential bearish sentiment in maintaining recent performance levels.

<h3>Understanding the Recent Decline</h3>
The recent stock decline follows lululemon&#39;s latest Jun 5 earnings report, highlighting slightly lower-than-expected revenue growth and cautious guidance for the upcoming quarters. While generally positive, the company&#39;s recent earnings report gave investors many reasons to mull over, including LULU losing its foothold in the core America market.
Investors noted that LULU&#39;s revenues improved by just 10% in the recent quarter, much below the 24% revenue growth recorded in the year-ago quarter. This marks a notable decline from the company&#39;s double-digit revenue growth trend that the investor community is used to witnessing.
lululemon attributed some of these challenges to inventory shortages in key product lines, such as popular bag designs and essential apparel sizes and colors, particularly in the United States. The company has been working on filling the inventory gaps that resulted in the shortage and expects to replenish inventory in its stores by the second half of fiscal 2024.
Taking a closer look, revenues for lululemon&#39;s Americas business grew 3% in the last reported quarter, displaying a significant slowdown from the growth of 17% in the year-ago quarter. The unfavorable trends in North America due to the inflationary environment have also weighed on the performance of LULU&#39;s competitors, including Columbia Sportswear (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/colm#NASDAQ">COLM</a>) and Ralph Lauren Corp. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/rl#NYSE">RL</a>).
Further, lululemon&#39;s business is not shielded from the tough macroeconomic environment, which entails serious pressures on discretionary items spending by consumers. The ongoing rise in inflation and higher interest rates have impacted the income levels of consumers, making them selective about their purchases.
Given the soft trends, the company guided a dim second quarter, with revenue growth of 9-10% year over year.
<h3>Should You Buy lululemon Amid Recent Challenges?</h3>
Although the above discussion might cause some concern, the company holds strong growth potential from an earnings standpoint. Despite the slowed revenues, lululemon has managed to maintain robust gross margin and operating margin levels at 57.7% and 19.6%, respectively, in the first quarter of fiscal 2024.
The company&#39;s improved margins mainly come from its ability to sustain its pricing power in all environments. How does the company achieve this?
lululemon is known for selling high-end apparel, placing it in the premier clothing category. Moreover, the company operates through owned stores and e-commerce portals rather than relying on third-party retailers to generate revenues.
This premium positioning and lack of dependency on third parties give lululemon control over its pricing strategies. Through effective pricing policies, the company efficiently converts revenues into profits.
lululemon&#39;s earnings potential is well reflected by its forward guidance, which predicts the second-quarter fiscal 2024 EPS to be $2.92-$2.97, up from $2.68 in the prior-year quarter. For fiscal 2024, LULU anticipates EPS of $14.27-$14.47, an increase from $12.77 reported in fiscal 2023.
The company is optimistic about its growing presence in the international market, particularly in China, which offers a lucrative opportunity. The company expects the momentum in the international business to continue in fiscal 2024. Over the long term, lululemon expects the international business to represent nearly 50% of its total revenue.
Also, lululemon continues to benefit from progress on its Power of Three X2 growth strategy. As part of the plan, LULU estimates net revenues of $12.5 billion by 2026, implying significant growth from the 2021 reported figure of $6.25 billion.
<h3>Upward Estimate Trajectory</h3>
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for LULU&#39;s fiscal 2024 and 2025 EPS rose 1.4% and 0.5%, respectively, in the last 30 days. The upward revision in earnings estimates indicates analysts&#39; increasing confidence in the stock.
For fiscal 2024, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for LULU&#39;s sales and EPS implies 11.4% and 11.9% year-over-year growth, respectively. The consensus mark for fiscal 2025 sales and earnings indicates 9.9% and 10.1% year-over-year growth, respectively.

<h3>Valuation</h3>
Despite the downside, lululemon is currently trading at a forward 12-month P/E multiple of 20.15X, significantly exceeding the industry average of 12.49X. The stock trades at a premium to its rival NIKE&#39;s (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nke#NYSE">NKE</a>) current forward 12-month P/E of 19.08X, which witnessed a significant drop in its market value after its recent earnings release.
The premium valuation indicates that investors have high expectations for lululemon&#39;s future performance and growth potential. However, lululemon&#39;s valuation appears a bit pricey. Investors may be skeptical about buying the stock at these premium levels and may wait for a better entry point.

<h3>Conclusion</h3>
lululemon&#39;s recent stock decline may appear concerning at first glance, but it could also be seen as an opportunity for savvy investors. Despite the slowdown in revenues and the challenging path ahead, LULU shows resilience and growth potential in its earnings outlook and strategic positioning.
Despite the decline in the stock price, the company&#39;s premium valuation may give some investors pause, suggesting a potentially higher risk profile at current price levels. Therefore, investors should carefully consider their risk tolerance and wait for a more favorable entry point if concerned about current valuations. For those already invested, you should consider holding back the stock for solid long-term prospects.
lululemon currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).
