Can Foot Locker Fill the Gap?
Last week had a couple of days that will live in infamy for retailers like 
Walmart, 
Target and Ross Stores. But not Foot Locker.
The shoe retailer managed to beat earnings forecasts despite revenue missing. That suggests margins were strong and management handled inflationary pressures better than larger peers.
Prices briefly jumped above $32.50 after the report but soon retreated. That level is potentially important because it’s near the high following the sharp drop on February 25. Can prices now fill the gap to the upside?
Second, notice how FL is now trying to hold support at the 50-day simple moving average (SMA).
Third, a trendline along the recent highs could now be turning from resistance to support.
Fourth, the lows of February and May represented successful tests of the longer-term low of $26.58 from August 2020.
Finally, FL trades for less than 10 times earnings. That could make it potentially attractive to value investors.
