State-of-the-art retail stocks have seen strong gains in recent months, and recent trading activity could signal higher growth on the horizon, Jim Cramer of CNBC said on Tuesday.

“State-of-the-art non-essential retailers have already run, but the charts, as interpreted by Bob Lang, suggest that Capri Holdings, Tapestry, LVMH and Nordstrom could all have more here due to, yes, stimulus checks,” Host “Crazy money,” he said.

Lang, the founder of ExplosiveOptions.net and a contributor to TheStreet.com, is a trusted technician that Cramer relies on to get a read of the market situation.

Cramer noted that last year was the largest period of retail failures in history, as coronavirus blockages and restrictions deepened the brick and mortar retail landscape.

As the US conducts its Covid-19 vaccination campaign and leads closer to a full economic reopening, those companies that have survived the damage may be able to benefit from another round of aid spending that includes a third distribution of payments. direct to most Americans.

“The whole group ran out of gas a few weeks ago, then Congress agreed to pump $ 2 trillion [the economy] and now he’s looking at another leg higher, “Cramer said.

Capri Holdings

  • The stock has increased by 38.4% in the last three months, exceeding 7.65% of the S&P 500
  • Chaikin cash flow, a measure of buying and selling pressure, is high
  • The relative strength index, an indicator of momentum, suggests that the stock is in overbought territory

“Lang thinks this is the kind of stock that is becoming overbought, but instead of being afraid, he says it remains overbought,” Cramer said, “meaning he sees he could revisit the old maxims.”

Tapestry

  • Coach’s father, Kate Spade and Stuart Weitzman
  • Shares have risen 51% in the past three months and are in the dollar range from a 52-week high
  • Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), an indicator of trend momentum, recently made a bullish crossover
  • Chaikin’s cash flow is strong

“When the stock returned to the 50-day moving average in January, this was your chance [to buy it] … Lang believes Tapestry is a quiet leader, with more room to run, “Cramer said.” He is more bullish on tapestry than I am. “

LVMH

  • Father of Louis Vuitton, Hennessy and Christian Dior
  • The stock has increased by 8.25% in the last three months and to its recent limit
  • He spent months trading sideways, creating a spiraling spring situation that tends to lead to an upward trend.

Nordstrom
