Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached its target in 71 days.
The thesis — published October 30, 2025
TJX sells well-known brands for less, which draws in budget-minded shoppers. The stock climbed about 13% over three months, then dipped a bit, and a respected fund added shares. With positive mood and holidays coming, the price could recover in 1-3 months if products sell well. We keep the position small because the recent trend looks weak and the valuation is not cheap, so there is less margin for error.
Primary drivers
- Shoppers trading down favor discount stores, lifting traffic and sales
- Price looks very sold off lately, leaving room for a short-term rebound
- Large investor buying suggests confidence and can help support the price
- Trend is soft and shares are not cheap, which could limit near-term upside
