The holiday season results are in, with Five Below (FIVE), Macy's (M), and Abercrombie & Fitch (ANF) disappointing investors with their guidance for the holiday quarter.
Anthony Chukumba, Managing Director at Loop Capital Markets, joins Market Domination hosts Josh Lipton and Julie Hyman to give insights into the retail space.
Chukumba discussed the announcement from Five Below, saying that even though there were concerns about inventory management, the overall financial performance met expectations.
Five Below "basically said that sales for the fourth quarter are going to be at the upper half of their prior guidance range and they reiterated their earnings guidance," Chukumba says. "It sounds like they felt like they left some sales on the table, but I thought, overall, it was a perfectly fine holiday selling season for Five Below," he adds.
