On CNBC’s "The Final Call," Carter Worth of Worth Charting, named SPDR S&P Retail ETF XRT.

Brian Stutland of Equity Armor Investments, LLC picked iShares 7-10 Year Treasury Bond ETF IEF.

Mike Khouw of Optimize Advisors also named SPDR S&P Retail ETF XRT. "I think the way to make a bearish bet there is with a put spread," he added.
