👋 Good Morning!
We have a BIG redesign today!
Why the redesign?
The previous newsletter was too long and would get cut off in certain email clients which was hurting my deliverability
I’m thinking this email can act as the hub for all of the stock market tools I am building. This email will give you an overview of the important stuff happening in the stock market and then if you want to dive deeper into certain aspects, you can visit the newsletters/tools that focus on that (like Market Mornings for news, CEO Watcher for insider trades, and the new Yellowbrick Road Stock Ideas web page for more stock ideas each day).
Reply to this email with your initial thoughts on the changes! If we all hate it, we can always go back to stock ideas only.

MARKET OVERVIEW
Are you short-term bullish or bearish? |
The market got significantly more bullish after the inflation numbers came out lower than expected. Small caps stocks (Russell index) finally turned positive for the year, all of the indexes were up over 1%, and the Fear and Greed Index jumped 6 points and entered neutral territory.
FEATURED STOCK IDEA

Restoration Hardware’s Growth Inflection and Share Repurchases
RH, together with its subsidiaries, operates as a retailer in the home furnishings and operates under RH Galleries and RH brand names in the District of Columbia and Canada, as well as Waterworks showrooms throughout the United States and the United Kingdom.
Ticker: $RH | Price: $233 | Price Target: N/A | Timeframe: N/A
🛋️ Home Furnishings | 🛍️ Retail | 📈 Bullish Idea
Restoration Hardware (RH) is undergoing a major brand "relaunch" with an 80% refresh of its product lines, introducing new styles and collections that are expected to drive growth and enhance same-store sales. Despite a 19% year-over-year revenue decline, RH is optimistic about its future, marked by a significant share buyback of 17% last quarter, indicating confidence in future earnings. CEO Gary Friedman has underscored the company's opportunistic approach to buybacks, similar to Warren Buffett's strategy. The relaunch includes high-quality European and American materials, with improvements in both product availability and delivery times, signaling a strengthened supply chain. The company has invested $1.2 billion in its stock, betting on the relaunch's success, with expectations for an earnings inflection in the second half of the year and peak in the first half of 2024. RH's strategic moves, including international expansion and gallery growth, aim to capitalize on the relaunch, with the stock's future earnings potential deemed attractive. RH evenre purchased 17% of its shares last quarter at an average repurchase price of $295 showing their confidence in the business.
