    Foot Locker (FL) reports healthy Q2 earnings

    Filed under: Earnings reports, Good news, Options, Technical Analysis

    FL logoFoot Locker (NYSE: FL - option chain) shares are soaring higher today after the company announced yesterday evening that it earned a second-quarter profit of $18 million, or 11 cents per share and well above estimates of 3 cents. Other retail earnings this morning were a mixed bag, as Gap (NYSE: GPS) and Jones Apparel (NYSE: JNY) are rising while Pacific Sunwear (NASDAQ: PSUN) is tanking. This makes me think that the retail sector may not trade as a block for the next few months, but rather on the individual merits of each...

    Foot Locker's Achilles Heel Graphic_rating_sell FL
    <>My scans of the stock charts this week are showing a nice short sell on a famous tennis shoe retailer. It sold off about 5% on Friday after the unemployment rate hit 5.5%, oil spiked back up to $11.00 to end the day at about $138 a barrel, and an analyst at research firm Sterne Agee posted a hold rating on this stock giving it a $12.00 price target.

    Short Sell: Foot Locker (FL)

    First, my analysis to sell or buy is mostly from the technical perspective as I'm looking for low risk high reward trade setups of at least 3:1 reward risk. Foot Locker is showing about a 3.5:1 reward risk ratio. N...
