- 5:07Speaker 1: share prices closing unchanged our stocks. Dave Wilson is back.
- 5:12Speaker 1: What's catching your ideas? Companies with dollar in their name,
- 5:15Speaker 1: they're what what's catching my eye? Because we heard from
- 5:19Speaker 1: Dollar Tree and Dollar General today fiscal first quarter results
- 5:24Speaker 1: from both companies beating analysts average estimate in the Bloomberg
- 5:29Speaker 1: survey coincidentally by the same amount eight cents of share
- 5:34Speaker 1: and in percentage terms, biggest earnings relative to estimates since
- 5:40Speaker 1: twenty eleven. So and beyond that, Dollar Tree raised their
- 5:44Speaker 1: full year profit forecast, so they got the better of
- 5:47Speaker 1: Dollar General today in the stock market. Dollar Tree actually
- 5:50Speaker 1: the biggest gain UH in the S and P five
- 5:53Speaker 1: hundred on a day, up almost thirteen percent. Dollar General,
- 5:56Speaker 1: though no slaps with the four point six percent gain,
- 5:58Speaker 1: fourth largest in S and Let me tell you about
- 6:02Speaker 1: another retailer a day. This has to do with william Sonoma.
- 6:05Speaker 1: The shares of william Sonoma higher by one and a
- 6:07Speaker 1: half percent. The company reported results that exceeded analysts estimates
- 6:11Speaker 1: for the first quarter, the company also saying that same
- 6:15Speaker 1: store sales grew four and a half percent. West Elm,
- 6:18Speaker 1: one of the divisions of william Sonoma, reporting a nincent
- 6:21Speaker 1: same store sales increase, and the william Sonoma brand reported
- 6:25Speaker 1: a three and a half percent same store sales increase.
- 6:28Speaker 1: Once again, shares of Williams Sonoma up one and a
- 6:31Speaker 1: half percent. I guess we're all kind of takeing a
- 6:33Speaker 1: look at retailers and another discounter. I guess you could
- 6:37Speaker 1: call Costco Wholesale Corporation. It shares up the most and
- 6:40Speaker 1: more than six years, we've got Costco up about nearly
- 6:44Speaker 1: three point six percent of the closed at n and
- 6:47Speaker 1: sevente cents a share. And we've had bad news lately,
- 6:51Speaker 1: haven't we. Macy's Best Buy other ones with downbeat forecast,
- 6:56Speaker 1: but Costco today actually had it earnings topping analysts estimates,
- 7:02Speaker 1: with net income up five and a half percent of
- 7:04Speaker 1: five million dollars or a hundred giuse me a dollar
- 7:08Speaker 1: twenty four cents a share, uh, not compares with an
- 7:11Speaker 1: estimate of a buck twenty two. And Costco has been
- 7:14Speaker 1: able to reign in expenses to cope with the sales
- 7:18Speaker 1: slowed down at its stores, which has suffered from lower
- 7:20Speaker 1: prices at their gasoline pumps. So that is significant. Uh.
- 7:26Speaker 1: And also the company has been transitioning its members credit
- 7:29Speaker 1: cards to Visa through City Group of American Express, and
- 7:32Speaker 1: apparently analysts are concerned this could hurt membership or customers
- 7:35Speaker 1: are unhappy with the transition, but Costco doing pretty good today.
- 7:38Speaker 1: I gotta close the loop on US Foods Holding. This
- 7:41Speaker 1: is the food distributor. They went public late yesterday, sold
- 7:46Speaker 1: a billion dollars worth of stock first day of trading
- 7:49Speaker 1: for the shares, and indeed they went up. And in fact,
- 7:52Speaker 1: if you look at the most of the I p
- 7:54Speaker 1: O s in the US this year, they are higher
- 7:56Speaker 1: than their initial prices. And that was certainly the case
- 7:59Speaker 1: today for US Foods, as the shares rose eight point
- 8:03Speaker 1: three percent from their initial public offering price to close
- 8:06Speaker 1: at twenty four dollars and nine cents. I'll tell you
- 8:10Speaker 1: about the shares of Signet Jewelers, down about ten and
- 8:12Speaker 1: a half percent today Signet Jewelers owns K as well
- 8:15Speaker 1: as Zales, Jared and other chain of jewelry stores suffering
- 8:19Speaker 1: a slowdown. Comp store sales increasing just two and a
- 8:22Speaker 1: half percent last quarter, that missed the three and a
- 8:24Speaker 1: half percent gain that was estimated by analysts, and the
- 8:28Speaker 1: growth in the current period maybe even slower. The company said.
- 8:31Speaker 1: The results are sent the stock tumbling, as I said,
- 8:33Speaker 1: down more than ten and a half percent. Well, another
- 8:37Speaker 1: nationwide retailer discount who doesn't know the name of Burlington's stores.
- 8:43Speaker 1: That share price definitely seventy seven and a half percent
- 8:45Speaker 1: at the close today, sixty dollars and change. A couple
- 8:48Speaker 1: of things happened today. They beat at a very solid
- 8:52Speaker 1: beat on their earnings report. They came in a fifty
- 8:55Speaker 1: two cents to share. Uh, the earnings per share was
- 8:58Speaker 1: expected around forty one excuse me for the eight cents
- 9:01Speaker 1: for the quarter. It expects net sales to be up
- 9:03Speaker 1: six point three to seven three percent for the second
- 9:06Speaker 1: quarter of the year. Expects comparable store sales to increase
- 9:09Speaker 1: two and a half to three and a half percent
- 9:12Speaker 1: next quarter. B of a. In fact, after seeing this report,
- 9:15Speaker 1: raised its price started on Burlington to seventy five dollars
- 9:18Speaker 1: signing the beat and Compelling Valuation PIM. Thank you very much.
- 9:23Speaker 1: All right, it's time now for the Volatility Index Report.
- 9:25Speaker 1: It is brought to you by cbo E VIX Options

- 9:35Speaker 1: Slash Powerful outcomes VIX. The VIX lower today down about
- 9:40Speaker 1: two cent, lower by point twenty seven, settling at thirteen
- 9:45Speaker 1: point nine oh and h. According to black Rocks strategist
- 9:49Speaker 1: Russ Costa rich investors expect VIX volatility to rise to
- 9:53Speaker 1: about twenty but fall by by the fall, and that
- 9:57Speaker 1: this may actually understate the potential rise in volatility. All right, Dave,
- 10:02Speaker 1: you're up? Uh hi, my name is Dave. Just what
- 10:08Speaker 1: do you think you're doing today? We're going for a
- 10:10Speaker 1: price down, Wilson, do Dave? Dave? You know, enterprise storage
- 10:17Speaker 1: solutions have been so hot. Well, pure storage not so
- 10:22Speaker 1: hot now Dave A busted I p O tell us
- 10:25Speaker 1: what happened? Well? You know, Pure Storage is a seller
- 10:29Speaker 1: of data storage systems built around memory chips rather than
- 10:32Speaker 1: the more traditional hard drives. Does a company was founded
- 10:35Speaker 1: in two thousand nine and went public last October, listed
- 10:38Speaker 1: under the ticker p STG. Pure Storage made its uh
- 10:43Speaker 1: initial public offering at seventeen dollars a share and fell
- 10:47Speaker 1: five percent in its first day of trading, not rising
- 10:50Speaker 1: like say u S Foods did today. While pure Storage
- 10:53Speaker 1: rallied to T sixty within the next two weeks after
- 10:57Speaker 1: its debut, the games didn't last. In December. Indeed, the
- 11:01Speaker 1: company became a busted I p O by falling below
- 11:04Speaker 1: the initial price again. Today, pure Storage matched its record
- 11:09Speaker 1: low of eleven dollars and five cents. After fiscal first
- 11:13Speaker 1: quarter results proved disappointing. Companies operating loss widen to forty
- 11:18Speaker 1: six percent of sales from the fourth quarters loss of
- 11:21Speaker 1: twenty nine percent. Now, pure Storage is adjusted loss and
- 11:25Speaker 1: revenue were in line with the analysts average estimates in
- 11:28Speaker 1: the Bloomberg Everybody. Nonetheless, the stock fell almost fifteen and
- 11:32Speaker 1: a half percent, and that was the biggest loss since
- 11:35Speaker 1: trading began last October. Thank you very much, Dave Wilson,
