Opening The Box On Stitch Fix's Bull Case Amidst A Rocky Year

Listen "Opening The Box On Stitch Fix's Bull Case Amidst A Rocky Year"

Episode Synopsis

On this week’s The Razor’s Edge, we’re talking Stitch Fix. The e-commerce apparel retailer has had quite a six months – a strong earnings report in December sent shares higher, propelled perhaps by high short interest in the name. That high short interest took on rocket fuel in January amidst the Gamestop frenzy. The air came out of the shares, and then the company reported a weaker earnings in March. And then co-founder and CEO Katrina Lake announced she would step down as CEO in August. So a lot going on.
The stock has passionate bulls and bears, and we try to sort out the bull case and whether it's a keeper.
