Breaking the Stretch: LULU Aiming for $355 with MomentumLululemon (LULU) is building strong bullish momentum after successfully filling the $245 bullish gap. The stock is now primed to break through the $275 resistance level, heading toward the next significant weekly resistance level at $354.66. With a favorable 3.39 risk-to-reward ratio, this presents an excellent opportunity for investors to enter, managing risk with a stop-loss at $243.37.
Lululemon’s strong financials and continuous brand expansion, coupled with increased demand in athleisure and lifestyle apparel, further support its upward trajectory. As the company continues to outperform in its market segment, there is a clear path for LULU to hit its $355 target in the near term.

7th time pushing for another area of resistance to 340sAs analysts take a bullish stance on price analysis, it does seem to be running on all counts at 337 on the BB Keltner breakout and 341 on the upper Bollinger; other indicators have been swinging much of the time, hovering over 80 but staying put in a strong stance against the bears. We could see a continued run to 350 before that cycle breaks.

LULU stock on the cusp of a major reboundLULU stock appears oversold after a downward trend reached key support around $250. The stock seems to have bottomed over the past month. If it holds above the $250 support level, it is poised to break out of the consolidation pattern and move upward toward the resistance zone between $360 and $380.

Lululemon ($LULU) Slides After Q2 Earnings; Key Levels to WatchLululemon Athletica Inc. (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:LULU ) experienced a sharp pullback early Friday despite posting better-than-expected earnings in Q2. The activewear giant’s outlook and revenue missed analysts' expectations, fueling investor concern.
Fundamental Analysis
Lululemon (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:LULU ) reported Q2 earnings of $3.15 per share, a 17.5% increase year-over-year, surpassing the FactSet consensus estimate of $2.93 per share. Revenue rose 7% to $2.37 billion but fell short of the expected $2.4 billion. Despite the earnings beat, Lululemon’s revenue growth has slowed over the past two quarters, raising concerns about the company's ability to maintain its momentum amid rising competition and shifting consumer behavior.
Q3 and Full-Year Guidance: A Mixed Bag
For Q3, Lululemon (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:LULU ) guided revenue to be in the range of $2.34 billion to $2.365 billion, representing a 6% to 7% growth rate, with earnings projected between $2.68 and $2.73 per share. This was slightly below analysts' expectations of $2.70 per share on $2.4 billion in sales. Lululemon’s full-year sales guidance of $10.38 billion to $10.48 billion also missed the market consensus of $10.6 billion, while the earnings outlook of $13.95 to $14.15 per share was aligned with estimates of $14.01 per share.
Key Concerns: Slowing Growth and Competitive Landscape
Earnings and revenue growth have decelerated, reflecting broader market trends such as weakened consumer spending amid inflationary pressures. Comparable store sales increased by 2%, below the anticipated 5.9%. The company also faces rising competition from other athletic apparel brands and general retail slowdowns, impacting sales growth. Additionally, Lululemon’s missteps, such as the troubled launch of its Breezethrough leggings, have weighed on investor sentiment.
Technical Analysis
Lululemon’s stock has been on a steep decline, dropping nearly 49% year-to-date. However, shares showed signs of breaking this downtrend in premarket trade on Friday, climbing 4.6% to retest key technical levels.
Descending Channel and Moving Averages
Since gapping below the 200-day moving average (MA) in late March, Lululemon (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:LULU ) has traded within a descending channel, marking a persistent multi-month downtrend. In recent weeks, the stock attempted a breakout but faced resistance near the channel’s top trendline and the 50-day MA. Premarket trading indicates a potential retest of these areas, setting up a pivotal moment for the stock.
Key Technical Levels to Watch
1. $272 Resistance: This level coincides with the descending channel’s top trendline and the downward-sloping 50-day MA. A decisive move above this could signal a breakout, prompting further buying interest.
2. $293 Target: The next significant resistance lies around $293, close to the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level from the December high to the August low. This level also aligns with key lows in May and July, suggesting potential selling pressure.
3. $335 Region: Should momentum carry Lululemon higher, the $335 level near the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement could be the next target. This area could see resistance from notable swing highs and lows in April and June.
4. $371 Long-Term Target: A sustained uptrend could see the stock approach the 50% Fibonacci retracement level at $371, where profit-taking might occur. This level aligns with April’s countertrend peak, situated near the descending channel’s upper boundary.
Conclusion
Lululemon faces a challenging road ahead as it seeks to regain investor confidence amid slowing growth and competitive pressures. While the company’s earnings beat expectations, its cautious outlook and revenue shortfall highlight broader industry challenges. On the technical front, key levels could determine the stock’s next move, with a potential breakout above $272 setting the stage for a more extended rally.
Investors should closely monitor these technical markers alongside Lululemon’s ongoing strategic initiatives and broader economic trends to gauge the stock’s recovery prospects.
8/26/24 - $lulu - 1.5% position into print8/26/24 :: VROCKSTAR :: NASDAQ:LULU
1.5% position into print
- still sub 20x
- still desirable among the swipe culture (and i like the products, i've written about how their fabric/ tech remains scarce)
- growing. generates cash. i don't need to repeat what i've written
- stock is bid which tells me those who cover it are still buyers
- a stock where likely if it's -10 or -15% on the day (unlikely but these days who the funk knows) you could dip buy it. and i'd plan to be back at a 2-3% position if that's the case and let it ride.
- but the options chain is pricing in something close north of $290. not willing to use leverage on this one. but also don't want to sit out what i still believe is great growing brand trading 18x PE and growing.
what do u think anon?

Now analyzing the options chain and the chart patterns of LULU Lululemon Athletica prior to the earnings report this week,
I would consider purchasing the 267.5usd strike price Puts with

Sorry. I'm not as verbose as y'all, and I don't like things to be complicated.
My trading system is very simple.
I buy or sell at top & bottom of parallel channels.
I confirm when price hits Fibonacci levels.
Bonus if a TTM Squeeze in in play.
I hold until target is reached or end of year, when I can book a loss.
So...
Here's why I'm picking this symbol to do the thing.
Price at top channel
Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI) at overbought level
Price at Fibonacci number
I hope this is easy to understand.
LULU Short IdeaLULU has been consistently going down for a while now, it's not even really sideways, just down. I've had some good trades on it this year but haven't touched it since because of how much it has dropped. Didn't want to short the lows or long it, but I finally see another great short entry on it here.
The 265 area is near the 2022 lows, LULU flushed hard below it but has come back for a retest. It did not quite touch the line, but I went ahead and entered my full position. I'll stop out if it breaks above, targeting the gap fill below for the first target.
