Jim Cramer Expects the Shoe to Fit When Foot Locker Reports Earnings
Outside of trade war talk, retailers are still reporting earnings.
Both L Brands (LB) - Get L Brands, Inc. Report and Best Buy (BBY) - Get Best Buy Co. Inc. Report reported stronger-than-expected quarterly earnings, catching investor interest after the bell Wednesday and ahead of the open Thursday.
Jim Cramer gives his biggest takeaway from each company's earnings report.
Cramer first starts with L Brands saying that investors shouldn't believe its positive earnings report.
On the other hand, Cramer said, "Best Buy, believe it, because they were nebulous about tariffs, but they're going to win. It's almost target."
Cramer also looks ahead to Foot Locker's (FL) - Get Foot Locker Inc. Report earnings, which are expected to be reported before the bell on Friday, May 24.
"Foot Locker should to be very interesting. Remember the note sent by Nike (NKE) - Get Nike Inc. Report and Adidas (ADDYY) to the President saying 'please relent.' Uh, in the meantime, their sales are fabulous. I think it will be fine," Cramer said.
