Retail sales dropped 2.8 percent in October as consumers cut back amid recession fears, a government report showed. Consumer spending is a key driver for U.S. economic growth and corporate profits.

  • $39.73
  • -0.95%
  • $39.90

Abercrombie is getting squished, says Karen Finerman. Their clothing is fairly expensive and people just don’t have the money. If you’re looking for a trade you might want to get long rival American Eagle [AEO] and short Abercrombie (ANF).

People owning ANF also tend to own: AMGNBBBBCWCOELOSHARIIFMER

If you want to play retail I’d keep an eye on Dick’s [DKS], says Guy Adami. I like it ahead of earnings.

And I’m short Family Dollar [FDO], Finerman said. Why this company trades at a premium to Wal-Mart [WMT] is a mystery.

One day the retailers will rally hard, but it’s not now. And if you want a short trade I’d short Sears [SHLD], Jeff Macke adds.
