Consumers are worried—but are retail stocks flashing buy-the-dip or real trouble?
Bridget sits down with Thomas Hughes to unpack the so-called "consumer collapse," digging into sentiment, inflation, rate-cut expectations, and what it all really means for retail stocks. They walk through six major names — Home Depot, Target, BJ's Wholesale Club, Williams-Sonoma, Walmart, and TJX — breaking down earnings, guidance, and analyst sentiment to separate headlines from real risk.
Along the way, Bridget chooses one for her latest addition to Bridget's Buys, so you can follow how it performs over time and see what made her paper-trading watch list: https://marketbeat.com/bridget
