"fade" stock<<<

I have shorted LULU pig many many times. Only one time i made decent money on it and all the other times i had small losses on this pig.

i used to think this was a fade too. but i think the brand is here to stay. try telling a girl that wears the garbage that this is a fade and see how they react. they are in love with the brand.i personally dont see it go out of fashion anytime soon, i only see more and more people wearing it.

i went after DECK, the makers of those ugly UGGS in december. The pig used to trade over $100. now its 67. My reasoning was that they were going out of fashion. i wasnt seeing them around as much as few years ago. now i think they are hurting and less people are buying them.

all imo, good luck.

LULU, analyst's round up=Barrons with trgt's ranging $78 -$85 on the high side to $50 "sell" rating and Barron's listing as stock to avoid with growth completely built into pps . Though did trade long off the am dip $71's knowing the mania force still strong in this do think is was right shorting the last to ebulllient EOD pops over $76 , for often just hedge funds taking advantage of quick 1-2 day profit squeeze action .

Some say Gold , some say Platinum and some hit the heavenly jackpot with Lulemon Yoga pants from Canada ...near 10% of the float is short with 8days to cover making it a perfect squeeze candidate for hedge fund traders , so any short thinking short on todays early sell off , got heads handed to them . Sometimes in the short timeframe one has to be contrarian to rationale , former momos like Pokemon & TASR & Krispy Kreme good examples .

$LULU update ...shorted very heavily the same pivot "$76.50" as yesterday's top high reaching this briefly here in premarket and fell back $1.60 to just under $75 .

Now struggling to hold there ...NKE taking a bath too very overbought

look at DECK bleed to death. I went after this pig, Cramer kept pumping it. Cramer should be in jail.
