The retail sector is undoubtedly one of the most affected areas of the stock market today, especially as the uncertainty of trade tariffs keeps hitting the market from every direction. This uncertainty has made it difficult for companies to accurately forecast their earnings guidance since knowing where costs might end up can significantly derail financial models moving forward.
Lululemon's recent stock correction creates a compelling entry point for GARP investors, given its strong brand, margins, and global growth potential. Despite tariff headwinds and softer US sales, Lululemon maintains robust profitability, a healthy balance sheet, and double-digit international expansion. The company's premium valuation is justified by its operational excellence, innovation, and long runway for growth, especially outside North America.
