The Nearly Naked Trade

Chalk them up as another recession casualty; the real housewives and husbands – of errr… America.

With trillions in wealth lost last year, many aging baby boomers are forced to fight the fat and cut costs, all at the same time.

Nope, that tummy tuck is no longer affordable -- neither is that fancy fat-free lunch or the high-priced celebrity gym membership.

And to make matters worse, it's bathing suit time. Considering almost no on likes how they look nearly naked, what’s the trade?

The Fast Money traders suggests looking at the following:

Madienform Brands [MFB  Loading...      ()   ] ; the maker of Maidenform, Lilyette, Flexees & Control It! "shapewear".

Warnaco Group [WRC  Loading...      ()   ] ; the maker of Calvin Klein underwear, Olga, Warner's.

Hanesbrands [HBI  Loading...      ()   ] The maker of L'eggs, Playtex, Bali, Wonderbra, Smooth Illusions Go Figure 'bodywear'.

All the companies mentioned above make garments that help the body appear slimmer. And the traders also says take a look at the following as drug companies involved in the battle of the bulge.

GlaxoSmithKline [GSK  Loading...      ()   ]; the maker of Alli weight loss

Allergan [AGN  Loading...      ()   ]; the maker of obesity treatments

And for those of you hotties out there who like to show off what you've got  -- the traders have one more play.

Limited Brands [LTD  Loading...      ()   ]; the maker of  Victoria's Secret!
