Trader Karen Finerman is always scouring the market for value. And she thinks Macy’s is way too cheap.
Finerman, who is a hedge fund manager and president of Metropolitan Capital thinks the Street went into ‘sell first and ask questions later' mode after the latest retail sales figures came in weaker than expected across the industry.
But Finerman thinks Macy’s has a slew of tailwinds:
- Cotton prices going down
- Pays nice dividend
- Likely winning share from JCPenney.
Not only do all those catalysts make the stock a buy around $35 but she says historically current levels have provided a good entry point. “Right now Macy’s is trading at 10 times earnings and in the past this has been a really good level to buy.”
