  • $36.13
  • -0.22%
  • $36.84

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

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