Takeaway: We're hosting a call Tuesday at 2pm to vet through the bull case and assess whether it has teeth, or its time to double down on the short.

HBI is officially a battleground stock once again, having caught three upgrades last week. The crux of the upgrades focused around…

  • resurgence in basic apparel demand,
  • out of stocks seen at mass, so HBI chasing inventory,
  • shelf space gains at WMT,
  • mask production as a revenue booster,
  • positive Champion POS data, and
  • a new CEO coming in next month as a catalyst for change.

Sounds compelling – especially given that expectations are so low for 2Q to be reported next Thursday – a rarity for the perennial underperformer that is HBI.

Fast forward…HBI has doubled off its April bottom, and there’s finally some controversy and a real credible bull/bear debate. We’ll be presenting a new Black Book on Tuesday ahead of the print to vet each of these issues to risk-manage the roadmap over TRADE/TREND/TAIL durations to assess whether the name is shortable again, or if the new bull case has any teeth with the stock back up to $14.
