Jim Cramer Says Lululemon 'May Have Bottomed' After Nearly 50% Drop This Year, Strongly Confident About Dell As Stock Surges Over 3% In After-Hours Trading
Sep 1, 2024 10:31 PM

Jim Cramer expressed optimism about Lululemon Athletica Inc ( LULU ) and Dell Technologies Inc ( DELL ) in a recent post on X.

What Happened: The host of CNBC’s “Mad Money,” Cramer, stated on Thursday that he thinks Lululemon may have hit rock bottom. He stated, “Thinking Lulu may have bottomed and i am loving Dell here.”

Cramer's comments come as investors closely watch market trends and company performances.

Lululemon recently reported its second-quarter financial results, revealing a revenue miss but an earnings beat. The company posted revenue of $2.371 billion, falling short of the consensus estimate of $2.409 billion.

However, earnings per share were $3.15, surpassing the expected $2.94. The athleisure brand saw a 7% year-over-year increase in total revenue and a 2% rise in comparable sales. Notably, international revenue surged by 29% year-over-year, while America’s net revenue grew by 1%.

Meanwhile, Dell also released its second-quarter earnings, reporting a revenue of $25.03 billion, which exceeded the consensus estimate of $24.14 billion. The tech giant’s adjusted earnings per share were $1.89, beating the analyst estimates of $1.71.

Dell’s total revenue increased by 9% year-over-year, with its Infrastructure Solutions Group seeing a 38% rise in revenue to $11.6 billion. However, the Client Solutions Group’s revenue dipped by 4% year-over-year to $12.4 billion.

Why It Matters: The broader market context also plays a role in Cramer’s optimism. On the same day, Wall Street experienced a rally, with the Dow Jones reaching record highs as the U.S. economy grew by 3% in the second quarter, surpassing earlier estimates.

This positive economic data contributed to a risk-on sentiment among traders, despite some mixed earnings reports from major tech companies like NVIDIA Corp.

Price Action: Lululemon closed at $259.01 on Thursday, marking a slight increase of 0.07% for the day. After hours, the stock surged by 4.24%. However, the stock has declined by 48.75% year to date.

Meanwhile, Dell finished the day at $110.74, down 0.74%. In after-hours trading, Dell’s stock isurged 3.30%. Year to date, Dell’s shares have risen by 48.07%, according to data from Benzinga Pro.
