10 Consumer Discretionary Stocks With Whale Alerts In Today's Session

The company recently reported that it has 6.44 million shares sold short, which is 13.32% of all regular shares that are available for trading.

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Comparing Crocs's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Crocs's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 8.94%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.

Crocs Stock: A Deep Dive Into Analyst Perspectives (6 Ratings)

Crocs Inc's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CROX#NASDAQ">CROX</a>) management is likely focusing on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/apparel">keeping inventory clean</a> against a softer wholesale backdrop, rather than trying to meet sales targets, in order to help protect margins, according to Bank of America Securities.
The Crocs Analyst: Analyst Christopher Nardone maintained a Buy rating, while reducing the price target from $140 to $135.
The Crocs Thesis: With shares down 14% from their peak following the company's first-quarter earnings release in May, the stock now prices in "a more cautious US wholesale environment," Nardone said in the note.
Check out <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings">other analyst stock ratings</a>.
He lowering the full-year earnings estimate by 2% to $13.00 per share, versus consensus of $12.80 per share.
"There are a lot of moving parts but the key driver to our lower forecast is lower wholesale sales (both brands); this is partly offset by improving FX rates and a slightly better GM forecast," the analyst wrote.
Despite a worsening macro backdrop, Crocs should be able to achieve the earnings estimate due to its "margin defensibility," he further stated.
CROX Price Action: Shares of Crocs had risen by 0.81% to $139.06 at the time of publication on Thursday.

<h3>Understanding the Numbers: Crocs's Finances</h3>
Revenue Growth: Crocs's revenue growth over a period of 3 months has faced challenges. As of 31 March, 2025, the company experienced a revenue decline of approximately -0.14%. This indicates a decrease in the company's top-line earnings. As compared to competitors, the company encountered difficulties, with a growth rate lower than the average among peers in the Consumer Discretionary sector.

<ul>
<li>
Gross Margin: Achieving a high gross margin of 57.78%, the company performs well in terms of cost management and profitability within its sector.
</li>
<li>
Earnings per Share (EPS): Crocs's EPS is notably higher than the industry average. The company achieved a positive bottom-line trend with a current EPS of 2.85.
</li>
</ul>
Debt Management: Crocs's debt-to-equity ratio surpasses industry norms, standing at 0.95. This suggests the company carries a substantial amount of debt, posing potential financial challenges.
Market Valuation:
<ul>
<li>
Price to Earnings (P/E) Ratio: The P/E ratio of 7.42 is lower than the industry average, implying a discounted valuation for Crocs's stock.
</li>
<li>
Price to Sales (P/S) Ratio: The Price to Sales ratio is 1.72, which is lower than the industry average. This suggests a possible undervaluation based on sales performance.
</li>
<li>
EV/EBITDA Analysis (Enterprise Value to its Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation &amp; Amortization): With a lower-than-industry-average EV/EBITDA ratio of 7.71, Crocs presents a potential value opportunity, as investors are paying less for each unit of EBITDA.
</li>

<h3>Why Insider Transactions Are Important</h3>
Considering insider transactions is valuable, but it's crucial to evaluate them in conjunction with other investment factors.
In legal terms, an "insider" refers to any officer, director, or beneficial owner of more than ten percent of a company's equity securities registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This can include executives in the c-suite and large hedge funds. These insiders are required to let the public know of their transactions via a Form 4 filing, which must be filed within two business days of the transaction.
When a company insider makes a new purchase, that is an indication that they expect the stock to rise.
Insider sells, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean that the seller thinks the stock will go down. 
<h3>Unlocking the Meaning of Transaction Codes</h3>
When dissecting transactions, the focal point for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/investing-tools">investors</a> is often those occurring in the open market, meticulously detailed in Table I of the Form 4 filing. A P in Box 3 denotes a purchase, while S signifies a sale. Transaction code C indicates the conversion of an option, and transaction code A denotes a grant, award, or other acquisition of securities from the company.

Needham analyst Tom Nikic on Thursday reiterated a Buy rating on the shares of Crocs Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CROX#NASDAQ">CROX</a>) and raised the price forecast from $118 to $129.
CROX delivered <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45289133/why-footwear-giant-crocs-stock-is-surging-today">strong first-quarter results</a>, outperforming expectations on revenue and earnings, with notable strength in gross margins and free cash flow. 
Positive commentary on tariffs also boosted sentiment. Despite uncertainty leading to the withdrawal of FY25 guidance, the analyst has raised EPS estimates for FY25 and FY26 and increased the price forecast, citing attractive valuation and favorable risk/reward.
Crocs management shared a more optimistic outlook on tariffs, estimating a smaller-than-expected impact on costs. A 10% tariff on all U.S. imports would reduce gross margins by 100–125 basis points, while a 145% tariff on China-made goods would result in a $130 million cost hit, about half of what was feared.

The company plans to shift nearly all U.S.-bound production out of China if high tariffs persist and has already begun raising prices and identifying $50 million in cost savings.
Crocs reported solid performance, particularly in international markets, with core brand sales up 4% in constant currency, beating forecasts. 
North America declined 3%, slightly better than expected, while momentum improved in March and continued into April.
Despite strong overseas growth, especially a 30%+ surge in China and solid gains in Western Europe management warned that cautious wholesale behavior could pressure second-half results.
HeyDude&#8217;s performance came in better than anticipated, with sales down 9.5% in constant currency versus expectations of a steeper mid-teens drop. 
While wholesale declined 17%, direct-to-consumer grew 8%, showing improved digital traction. Recent collaborations with celebrities like Sydney Sweeney and Jelly Roll have helped boost brand momentum.
Crocs saw a 180 basis point year-over-year increase in consolidated gross margin, led by a 260-point gain at the core brand, though partially offset by a 120-point decline at HeyDude. 
With strong margins in place, the company plans to invest more in marketing to capture market share despite a challenging environment, noted the analyst.
Price Action: CROX shares traded lower by 0.95% at $109.60 at last check Friday.
