TJX is actively buying inventory, often taking "leftover" or "extra capacity" goods from other retailers. In a volatile tariff environment where other retailers struggle with pricing and inventory certainty, off-price models like TJX benefit by acquiring inventory cheaply and offering the "value" consumers are desperate for. LONG (Beneficiary of inventory dislocation). Supply chain disruptions limiting inventory availability.

Walmart has an 800 basis point comparable sales spread over Target and is explicitly gaining share from the $100,000+ income consumer. High-income consumers are trading down for "consistency, easy delivery, and best prices." Walmart's scale allows it to hold prices steady while others pass on costs, accelerating market share gains. LONG (Defensive winner in uncertain macro). Margin compression if they absorb too much tariff cost to maintain price gaps.

Dick’s Sporting Goods and Footlocker are better ways to play the World Cup excitement. Dick’s has every major brand, and Footlocker has cleaned up its promotional posture and is at an inflection point with full-price selling gaining traction.

These brands have raised average selling prices (ASPs) by 30%, 40%, or even 50%, yet their results remain "crazy off the wall up double digits." These companies used the post-COVID era to cut costs and get leaner. Their brand strength is proven by their ability to pass on massive price hikes without destroying demand, unlike staples. LONG (Pricing power leaders). Consumer fatigue if prices push too high (similar to what happened in snacks).
