Just as a refresher of this: I saw this when it was posted, made good sense, and worked out pretty well! Unsure if OP has a different opinion but based on the numbers and commentary (along with broader public opinion), it seems like GAP is turning around!
Got it. So inverse my mentality from today and do puts on BBWI and calls on GAP and ONON
Look at individual stocks with the big gap ups and GAP Downs on the day of options expiration to pin down the prices
Easy to say it in hindsight, back in 2018 when I bought it there were so many haters just as now saying Tesla was going bankrupt, the valuation GAP against other car makers was crazy, that Tesla was going to collapse soon ecc. I remember very well because I wanted to buy Tesla already in 2015/2016 but it was absolutely full of idiots that were saying Tesla was going bankrupt before opening the first gigafactory and I let myself be convinced by them Tesla had lots of haters when it was at $20, it has haters now at $470 and will have haters at $2000. Change nothing, they just change the reason for why, according to them, Tesla is going to collapse soon...year after year it never happened
needs to happen before we absolutely GAP through 700
Retail has been doing great with earnings c GAP, Lulu, etc.. You know something?
Nah. I blanket bet on clothing retailers because they're all crushing it. Since ER's (all in the last few weeks) the clothing retailers have seen: GAP +20% ANF + 60% AEO +25% ASO + 15% ... so why wouldn't I bet on lulu?
That's what people said about lulu too. ASO, ANF, AEO, GAP, LULU & others have all jumped like 15-60% since their ER's. All in like the last 2-6 weeks.
No idea. Literally every retailer is doing well. I played ASO this week - I should have just held. It's up 15% since it's ER's. GAP up - you saw. AEO jumped 25% ANF is up like 60% etc, etc. I haven't actually seen a single clothing retailer FALL post ER's recently. I'm 100% betting on nike here
Thinking about it. GAP had style points. LULU prestige. Is Nike becoming cool again? or are Hoka and ON overshadowing them in that dept?
retail as a whole has absolutely crushed it. No way I'm betting agianst the sector here. ASO +15% this week on ER's LULU +10% AEO +25% GAP +25% since ER's ANF +60% others... Literally every retailer is mooning hard. NKE is next week, I'm 100% betting on them too. Easy money
\> “All the retailers are doing well” Nah. I'm literally looking at how investors are reacting to their ER's - as that's all that actually matters. IE: I'm looking at movements in the share price. That's all I'm here for - to make money. I don't actually care about the rest. If share price goes up -> doing well. Positive reaction -> goes up, Negative -> goes down. Look at any other retailer / similar company recently. They've all been doing amazingly. It was mostly caused due to market overreacting to tariffs on the sector. GAP +20% since ER's ANF +60% since ER's ASO +15% since tues (Er's) AEO +25% (jump on ER's) LULU +10% (jump on ER's) There are others up \~20-25% on ER's as well. However those are just the 5 I've been following. I haven't actually seen a single retailer **DROP** on their ER's recently. So... why would I expect lulu to? Often these jumps are due to some external variable - ie: macro correlations. \--- Well - turns out there is a reason for these massive share price jumps. The sector wasn't hit nearly as hard as anticipated (by, ie: tariffs). Investors priced the sector as if we were going into a recession - which we are not. Everyone overreacted. It makes a blanket bet on the sector a "good bet". That's why I bet on lulu. Sector has been doing very well (ie: share prices have been skyrocketing).
Literally all retailers are doing well (AEO, GAP, ANF, LULU, ASO, etc. etc.) This literally cannot go tits up. I'm thinking of hoping into NKE myself
Honestly just long all retail. NKE is next week, I'm 100% getting in on it. Literally everyone has mooned 10-50%+ since ER's. GAP: \~20% AEO: over 25% ANF: over 50% ASO: \~10% LULU: \~10%
I was just doing ER rotations all week -- I played like 5 different ER's this week. All retail has been doing incredibly well (GAP, AEO, ASO, ANF, etc) - which is why I punted quite a bit into LULU. Just the sectors been performing - so I figured - may as well bet on them all! Super glad I did
I only implied LULU could become irrelevant like UA and GAP if they continue on the path they're on. Never suggested they were in direct competition with them.
It's basically - buy before ER's and sell after ER's. Entire sector has been doing very well recently so I'm just betting on everything in the sector as a whole (GAP, AEO, ANF, etc)
Nope. It's basically I've been seeing more bulls than bears & the entire sector has been doing well (GAP, AEO, ANF, etc)
Calls: NVDA, GAP, FHN, SNAP, NE, CMCSA Puts: CMG Let’s go! 🤘
For your calls to 10x from here GAP needs to be up at least 50% lol keep smoking what you smoking man mad copium
Had a banbet I won GAP but it never showed up. Also whenever I try the prompt !banbet, nothing ever shows up (in the daily)
Bitcoin has a worse return than GAP this year
Still doesn’t work it’s so annoying. I had a banbet for GAP that I should’ve won but ever since it just doesn’t work
!banbet so dumb I won my GAP $27 Dec 3 bet but it’s broken
gotcha. I usually just post potential plays there / things when I enter. WSB mods requested I don't post as many here / don't do DD on the sub so I figured do it there ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯ It's a mix of DD, degeneracy, vibes & a few other things. Not a ton of people - but it's where I did the DD on GAP / shared results for example - as well as most of my other recent plays. I lurk wsb's for vibes - but beyond that it's mostly group discussions / dds / etc.
Why did all the “LOL GAP UP WAR IS BULLISH HAHAHA GOLGLE TO 5000000 VENEZUELA LOL NOT EVEN A COUNTRY” posts stop as soon as futes went red?
Also thinking AEO might surprise again after GAP, Ross, Kohls and Urbn
Does anyone know how to fix it? I have a nice GAP banbet but it won’t show up
The difference with ANF was it had a long downtrend, GAP doesn't have that...
GAP is already up 50% since the tariff announcement drop. Just sold most of it. So it will probably spike.
GAP already climbed from 8 to 20. I rode that wave all the way up
Someone did a DD on GAP when it was $24 with January calls breaking even somewhere around $26. Got me in for $40k (I’m a pussy and bought shares, this degen had calls) at 23. I’m a paper handed bitch that would normally have dumped when it hit 21, glad I didn’t. I hope they didn’t either
The catalyst is that it is technically lagging imo, all its surrounding competitors are reaping insane gains I think it’s time for GAP to follow
I have the same GAP call ($1.41 cost) but It is no where near as many contracts as yours
DUde GAP, KOhls, Abercrombie and bish, all up huge today!
GAP calls 10x? Buddy I can’t even get my jeans to 2x.
Alright fine… guess it’s GAP’s turn to rug me next
Anyone got some super high conviction plays right now? I was in GAP, looked at ANF but never hopped in it. I'm sad now. I need another fun thing to look at / do some DD into. Anyone have some suggestions?
I did it again! I had GAP calls for a while now, then when earnings came out last week it did fuck all so I closed out yesterday at ~5% profit Today, it stonks +8%, the same calls are up 100%+ on the day
So still holding all your $GAP calls and shares?
RDDT on a mission. Filling that GAP 🚀
Nice! I'm just holding my PFE & META here. Wish I held my GAP lol.
GAP baby what is u doinnn
On GAP? Seems to have printed. That's why when I boguht I bought Jans - give market time to react / play. I see it's at $27 now. Daang. It very well could gap up to $30 by EOY. My original PT's were high 20's - I still stand by them ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯
Shout-out to u/RedditUsername71 for the solid DD on GAP!! I bought 4 contracts at an average of $1.81 back when he posted. Sold them at $2.55, $2.78, $4.03 and $4.10 - My only regret is the classic not being able to throw more money at it in the beginning, but everyone has to start somewhere 😂
We have a GAP around 1,72-1,84$, it will Close and the we can Push 👍🏻🚀
The last ones I posted to WSBs were GAP & AMZN. Both hit - and exiting after ER's was the play. 0DTE's and shorter expirations don't count
Anyone got a fun ticker that has fun trends? GAP printed. I need a new thing to play with. 0DTE gambles get boring after a while (and we more or less lose money on average with them anyhow)
Immediately papered my 0DTE calls lol. I don't trust this market. I'm walking with my net 70k profit and fucking off for the day. One of the better Friday's I've had in a while (GAP, PFE, 0DTE's). GL2All
Should’ve full ported GAP I guess. It’s survived this shitty last few weeks fairly unscathed
Hi guys. GAP puts at $24.30 where a bad idea! 😂😂
That $GAP DD guy is rolling in it right now
The $GAP K-pop DD guy was right What an absolute Chad
GAP calls lmao can't believe the Becky trade never fails
GAP to 25 for my calls please!
I need GAP over 25 tomorrow at market open to save my calls or else I'm gonna quit trading and put all my money in boomer mutual funds
Some1 tried to play GAP earnings ? I have 25c but it looks kinda bad
The homie with the GAP DD must be feeling really good right now :)
There goes GAP at least that’s good
GAP DOWN tomorrow surely , to ruin my calls which I got EOD
Don’t forget your BULL and GAP lotto tickets
Puts on GAP is wild
sydney sweeney is american eagle team not gap so $GAP is going to crash
Anyone going for BULL calls and GAP calls?
Hopped off the GAP train at +$1.4k, good luck y'all
Im going all in on BULL calls and GAP calls. Im hopping they crush earnings
What’s the consensus here on GAP earnings?
Tomorrow gap up with GAP...
Calls: INTU VEEV BJ GAP
Get some WMT LEAPs, some GAP calls, BULL calls cuz it can't go lower right?
Held SPY calls overnight. Holding a bearish spread 25/21 on GAP. Been vocal about both.
I know some of you are in GAP. I would sell on any strength tomorrow. That stock is going right back down to 21 when they dont blow earnings out of the water. Do you really went to stake your portfolio on Old Navy right now? (Half of their sales). On and go walk by a Bamana Republic or an Athleta and tell me how busily those are!
Care to make a banbet? I am like the only one betting against GAP earnings, otherwise I would put my potential ban where my keyboard is.
I've personally rotated out of my GAP calls a week or so ago - I took profits. I'll be playing ER's with shares / potentially CC's. My big concern with GAP is that although the ads have been doing insanely well & trends suggest they have probably been working - they've all been focused on the GAP brand. GAP as a company consists of 4 major brands - Old Navy, GAP, Banana Republic & Athleta. Old navy makes up > 50% of their sales, GAP \~25% & the other two the rest. I expect GAP to do well / beat expectations - but I don't think it'll be by as large as a margin as many others believe due to consisting of 4 brands. I personally don't like the volatility around ER's in calls and am also not a fan of the IV crush - so I'll just be playing with shares. \--- I've had a very high level look at abercrombie - and although I do agree from a value perspective it looks super cheap - I don't see any catalyst to make ANF skyrocket. Quick google searches suggest that sales may actually be declining - which isn't good for a business like theirs. I heard they were also doing layoffs. I didn't look much past that to be honest. My current largest position is actually in Pfizer (PFE) at the moment - which is a completely different sector all togther.
Yep my 18 calls are waiting patiently. We’ll see how TJX does tomorrow that’ll help get some clarity. If GAP gaps up I’ll be taking a portion of earnings right into Abercrombie next week.
Finally GAP UP tomorrow.
GAP is going to meet earnings this week, not beat. When that happens the stock is going to drop back to 21. Expectations are way too high. Dont say you weren't warned. The Gap is 20% of GAP sales. They are not strong enough to carry the bags that are Banana Republic and Athleta. And you tell me if Old Navy customers have been exuberant this past 3 months.....
Is it super 90’s to be bullish on GAP?
Someone tagged me thinking I died or something. Just don't have time to shitpost atm. Busy week with high volatility & automated trading systems. Current positions are long PFE (4 month expiration, but may roll into 8-12). March 26c's. Playing GAP on Thurs by buying shares Thurs & selling Fri. Gonna sell CC's on shares to limit downside risks. Goodluck 2 all.
META next stop 588, then GAP down to 550.
Most retailers would be gone. Chains such as GAP KOHLS BBY and so forth GONE. 80% of all these hyped AI and quantum computing stocks GONE. Logistics and project management related companies GONE. Companies that focus on consumption by the bottom 70% of Americans will be gone.
How dare you dismiss GAP like that! It's not background, it's foreground! /S
