Shares of retail, apparel and e-commerce stocks are trading higher. Some stocks in the sector may be higher amid hopes of a US-China trade deal. Additionally, discount store stocks could be benefitting from broader economic concerns. E-commerce stocks may also be up up Chinese discount retailers Temu and Shein planning to increase prices.

More consumers are trading down, and a noticeable shift toward off-price and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/consumer-spending">discount retailers is emerging</a>.
What Happened: According to J.P. Morgan analyst Matthew R. Boss, retail fundamentals in the first-quarter are tracking close to expectations with signs of stronger momentum in late April due to the timing of Easter.
Apparel and footwear spending remained solid, boosted by affluent consumers and stable lower-income budgets, he says. Most retailers, however, are adopting a four-part strategy to offset new tariffs: renegotiating with suppliers, shifting sourcing, improving cost structures, and applying selective price hikes.

Here are some key takeaways from his April 14 report: 
<ul>
<li>Store expansion remains a key revenue driver for companies like Ollie&#8217;s Bargain Outlet Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OLLI#NASDAQ">OLLI</a>), Burlington Stores Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BURL#NYSE">BURL</a>) and Boot Barn Holdings Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BOOT#NYSE">BOOT</a>).</li>
<li>Global brands such as Birkenstock Holding PLC (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BIRK#NYSE">BIRK</a>) and PVH Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PVH#NYSE">PVH</a>) are reporting healthy order books and improving visibility.</li>
<li>The analyst reiterated a Neutral rating on the shares of PVH and lowered the price forecast from $91.00 to $87.00.</li>
<li>PVH is seeing macro-driven headwinds in North America and China, with North America DTC revenues down mid-single digits and China down mid-teens in February, partially stabilizing in March. Tariff exposure poses risk, with a potential EPS hit of $4.85.</li>
<li>Specialty retailers like Bath &amp; Body Works Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BBWI#NYSE">BBWI</a>) and Urban Outfitters Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/URBN#NASDAQ">URBN</a>) benefit from product diversification and operational gains.</li>
<li>Cruise lines stay relatively insulated, seeing no major booking declines despite recent market volatility.</li>
<li>Brands with the highest exposure to China include American Eagle Outfitters Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AEO#NYSE">AEO</a>), Nike Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>, )) and Boot Barn; Levi Strauss &amp; Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LEVI#NYSE">LEVI</a>), Birkenstock Holding PLC (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BIRK#NYSE">BIRK</a>), and VF Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VFC#NYSE">VFC</a>) remain less affected.</li>
<li>Burlington shares have an Overweight rating and a lowered price forecast from $336 to $287. The company saw strong fourth-quarter performance led by lower-income shoppers, with solid comps across all income levels due to value-seeking behavior.</li>
<li>The analyst reiterated a Buy Overweight on the shares of Ross Stores Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ROST#NASDAQ">ROST</a>) with a price forecast of $161.00. The company expects first-quarter same-store sales to decline 3% to flat, due to cold weather, delayed tax refunds, and consumer hesitation from policy headlines. However, trends improved in March/April, and full-year comps are projected at -1% to +2%, driven by seasonal historical strength and expected easing of first-quarter headwinds. ROST faces limited direct sourcing from China but still expects a modest tariff headwind.</li>
<li>The analyst reiterated a Neutral rating on the shares of Macy&#8217;s Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/M#NYSE">M</a>) and lowered the price forecast from $14.00 to $13.00. Despite progress reducing China sourcing (~30% now vs. ~50% historically), tariffs remain a risk for Macy&#8217;s, with a potential EPS headwind of up to $1.45.</li>
<li>The analyst maintained an Overweight rating on the shares of Lululemon Athletica Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LULU#NASDAQ">LULU</a>) and lowered the price forecast to 4389.00. Lululemon expects +6–7% revenue growth in 1Q FY25. Due to macroeconomic concerns, U.S. traffic declined, though conversion rates and AOV improved. Lululemon faces a 20bps gross margin headwind from tariffs, though China accounts for only 3% of its finished goods. Assuming no mitigation, tariffs could cut EPS by $0.38, noted the analyst.</li>

Shares of clothing and footwear retailers are climbing on Friday after President Donald Trump revealed that Vietnam is interested in negotiations<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/04/44632479/retail-stocks-slammed-as-trumps-tariff-plan-sends-shockwaves-through-sector"> to reduce tariffs. </a>
The Details: President Trump said in <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/114280292618523684">a post</a> on Truth Social that he had a "very productive call" with To Lam, General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam regarding possible negotiations to eliminate tariffs.&nbsp;
"Just had a very productive call with To Lam, General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam, who told me that Vietnam wants to cut their Tariffs down to ZERO if they are able to make an agreement with the U.S. I thanked him on behalf of our Country, and said I look forward to a meeting in the near future," Trump wrote.

Trump announced a steep 46% tariff on goods imported from Vietnam on Wednesday afternoon, which led to broad declines across the retail sector, which relies heavily on manufacturing in Vietnam. 
What Else: According to a Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-04-04/vietnam-asks-us-to-postpone-tariff-and-engage-in-negotiations-m923qrv7">report </a>from earlier Friday morning, Vietnam had asked the Trump administration to delay the 46% tariff on Vietnamese goods for up to three months to enable further negotiations to take place.
Deputy Prime Minister Ho Duc Phoc said that Vietnam would look to purchase more U.S.-made goods, including technology, in order to balance the trade relationship, according to a statement on the government's website.&nbsp;
Other government and central bank officials stated that Vietnam would consider removing trade barriers and taxes while continuing discussions with the United States, according to Bloomberg.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Stocks React: Nike, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>), which manufactures about 25% of its goods in Vietnam, saw its stock pop more than 5% on the news Friday.&nbsp;

Trump Reveals Vietnam Trade Talks As Nike Stock Rallies On Surprise Turnaround

The retail sector is under heavy selling pressure on Thursday as Wall Street digests President Donald Trump's tougher-than-anticipated <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44626421/trumps-reign-of-tariffs-unleashes-d-day-on-wall-street-analyst-warns-of-stagflation-risk">tariff plan.&nbsp;</a>
What To Know: Trump on Wednesday announced sweeping tariffs aimed at reshaping global trade and boosting American manufacturing, including a universal 10% tariff on all imports starting April 5 and&nbsp; significantly higher rates targeting around 60 countries deemed &#8220;major offenders&#8221; for imposing barriers on U.S. goods.&nbsp;
Many retailers and brands manufacture goods in China and Vietnam which now have effective tariffs rates of 54% and 46%, respectively. Stocks of companies that rely heavily on imports are experiencing significant declines as Wall Street digests the implications of the new tariff structure.&nbsp;

S&amp;P Global analysts recently warned that steep tariffs would affect retailers disproportionately and more severely than they had in the past.&nbsp;
&#8220;Broad-based tariffs could hurt more U.S. consumer products and retail companies this time around than in 2018,&#8221; analysts wrote.&nbsp;
&#8220;Price increases will be harder to pass along to the consumer this time around because of the recent inflation cycle and already weak consumer environment,&#8221; the analysts wrote, per The Street.&nbsp;
Approximately, one-third of footwear imports come in the U.S. from Vietnam, according to the Footwear Distributors and Retailers of America. Shares of footwear companies who manufacture in Vietnam, including Nike, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>) and UGGS-parent Deckers Outdoor Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DECK#NYSE">DECK</a>) were down dramatically on Thursday.&nbsp;
Best Buy, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BBY#NYSE">BBY</a>) stock was on track for its worst day since March 2020. The electronics retailer sources approximately 60% of its goods from China with goods from Mexico also making up a significant percentage, <a href="https://www.thestreet.com/investing/stocks/s-p-global-reveals-stocks-hit-hardest-by-tariffs">according</a> to S&amp;P Global.&nbsp;
Five Below, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FIVE#NASDAQ">FIVE</a>) also imports a large share of its goods and saw its stock price fall nearly 30% in Thursday's midday trading.&nbsp;
Lululemon Athletica, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LULU#NASDAQ">LULU</a>) sources approximately 40% of its products from Vietnam and 17% from Cambodia, according <a href="https://qz.com/lululemon-nike-deckers-american-eagle-tariffs-1851774516">to data</a> from Quartz. Both countries have been hit with steep tariff rates &#8211; 46% for Vietnam and 49% for Cambodia.&nbsp;
William Blair analyst Sharon Zackfia said in a note Thursday that the tariffs could result in a 7% hit to Lululemon's margins if the company takes no action.&nbsp;
Several other retail stocks were tumbling in Thursday's midday trading, including:&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>American Eagle Outfitters, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AEO#NYSE">AEO</a>)&nbsp;</li>

Barclays Maintains Overweight on Urban Outfitters, Raises Price Target to $68

J.P. Morgan analyst Matthew R. Boss reiterated a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/URBN/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">Neutral rating </a>on the shares of Urban Outfitters Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/URBN#NASDAQ">URBN</a>) and raised the price target from $54.00 to $56.00.
URBN reported <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/02/g43989451/urbn-reports-record-q4-sales-and-fy25-profits" rel="noreferrer noopener">adjusted EPS of $1.04 for fourth-quarter</a>, surpassing analysts&#8217; expectations of $0.95. This was driven by a 16.8% year-over-year increase in gross profit, exceeding the 14% anticipated growth, supported by a 5.1% increase in same-store sales, said the analyst.
Additionally, adjusted gross margin expanded by 200 basis points to 32.3%, surpassing the Street&#8217;s estimate of 31.5%. SG&amp;A expenses were 24.6%, in line with the Street&#8217;s expectation of 24.7%.
Looking forward, management provided guidance for first-quarter 2025, expecting consolidated sales growth of MSD-HSD% year-over-year versus the Street&#8217;s 7.7% forecast.
Same-store sales are anticipated to rise by LSD-MSD%, compared to the Street&#8217;s estimate of 3.4%.

The analyst noted that CEO Hayne clarified that any post-Holiday slowdown in consumer demand was due to &#8220;delayed demand&#8221; caused by weather, with warmer weather markets outperforming northern ones on a comp basis.
The Southeast is the best-performing region, with comps significantly ahead of other areas. Consumer sentiment remains positive and consistent, suggesting potential for delayed demand in northern regions as weather improves, potentially boosting results in March/April.
CEO Hayne&#8217;s remarks about Spring demand and weather align with TJX Companies Inc CEO Herrman&#8217;s, who noted that normal weather areas performed well, but weather disruptions impacted some regions.
The analyst&#8217;s analysis of Chase credit/debit card data indicates that weather has caused a temporary dip in discretionary spending, especially in northern regions where temperatures are significantly colder than last year.
In contrast, states without weather disruptions, like the Southwest, have seen stable.
The analyst raised FY25 EPS estimate to $4.88 (vs. Street $4.42) and FY26 EPS estimate to $5.59 (vs. Street $4.84).
The price forecast is based on 5.6x the analyst&#8217;s FY26 EBITDA (= URBN&#8217;s 3-yr pre-pandemic average), with the linear regression analysis supporting upside to a $68 equity value.
Price Action: URBN shares are trading higher by 9.02% at $57.70 at last check Thursday.
