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

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">New On The Block</h2>
<ul>
<li>Jack in the Box (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JACK#NASDAQ">JACK</a>) is exploring strategic options for Del Taco, including a potential sale, just two years after acquiring it for $585 million. According <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-04-23/jack-in-the-box-weighs-sale-of-del-taco-restaurant-chain?srnd=phx-deals&amp;sref=TBDibEcD">to</a> Bloomberg, the fast-food chain could fetch up to $200 million. The company is working with Bank of America on the process and plans to close 150 to 200 underperforming restaurants as part of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/fast-food">a broader restructuring</a>.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Billy McFarland, the infamous mastermind behind the spectacular dumpster fire known as Fyre Festival, is back. After conning the rich and famous (and some unlucky Instagram influencers) out of millions and earning himself nearly four years behind bars, McFarland was supposedly prepping for another Fyre event. With just a month to go before round two was set to launch, he's now trying to auction off the "Fyre" brand to the highest bidder, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DIzDz6exph0/?hl=en">saying</a>: "This brand is bigger than any one person" — this coming from the guy who turned it into a global meme against the gullible. </li>
</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Updates On The Block</h2>
<ul>
<li>UPS (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UPS#NYSE">UPS</a>) is <a href="https://about.ups.com/us/en/newsroom/press-releases/our-strategy/ups-to-acquire-andlauer-healthcare-group-for--1-6-billion--stren.html">acquiring</a> Canadian healthcare logistics firm Andlauer Healthcare Group (TSX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AND#TSX">AND</a>) for approximately $1.6 billion, paying C$55 per share—a 31% premium. The deal, expected to close by year-end, could pressure rivals like FedEx and DHL to expand their presence in the higher-margin healthcare sector. Notably, Andlauer's CEO, Michael Andlauer, also owns the NHL's Ottawa Senators, who are currently down 2-0 in a series against the Toronto Maple Leafs.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Kimberly-Clark (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KMB#NYSE">KMB</a>) has short-listed three strategic bidders for its global tissue unit, which could sell for around $4 billion. The unit generates approximately $500 million in annual EBITDA, and binding bids are expected by mid-May, according to Reuters.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Clothing brand Guess (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GES#NYSE">GES</a>) previously received a $677-million take-private bid from WHP Global. The brand is also considering a takeover bid from private equity-backed Authentic Brands Group. ABG backers include CVC Capital Partners, General Atlantic, HPS Investment Partners and Leonard Green &amp; Partners.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Merck KGaA is in late-stage talks to buy SpringWorks Therapeutics for around $3.5 billion, or approximately $47 per share. A deal could be announced as soon as Monday, Bloomberg reported. The deal would support Merck's pharma division, which is facing a patent expiration for a multiple sclerosis drug.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Tencent Music is reportedly <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-04-25/tencent-music-is-said-in-talks-to-buy-ximalaya-for-2-4-billion?srnd=phx-deals">in</a> discussions with China-based startup Ximalaya. The price tag is roughly $2.4 billion in a cash-and-stock deal. A deal could be finalized in the coming weeks, though discussions are ongoing. Ximalaya, backed by Tencent, Baidu and Sony Music, had 303 million monthly active users in 2023 and previously delayed a planned Hong Kong IPO. Tencent Music, which owns QQ Music, Kugou, Kuwo and WeSing, went public in the U.S. in 2018 and now has a market cap of about $20.6 billion.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>European regulators <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/f06fa20d-a76b-494a-a09b-224e4d210db4">are</a> preparing to investigate Universal Music Group's proposed $775 million acquisition of Downtown Music Holdings, the Financial Times reports. The update follows antitrust concerns raised in Austria and the Netherlands. Although the deal didn&#8217;t meet EU-wide merger notification thresholds, the European Commission accepted requests to review it due to potential impacts on competition within the Single Market. Universal announced the acquisition via its Virgin Music division in December.</li>
</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Bankruptcy Block</h2>
<ul>
<li>Bertucci's is going back, not for seconds, but for thirds. The casual dining franchise known for its pizza is <a href="https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/69938534/1/bertuccis-restaurants-llc/">headed</a> for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. This would be the third time since 2018. The chain closed 7 of its 22 locations before filing, leaving 15 operating restaurants across six states. The Northborough, Massachusetts-based franchise has downsized significantly from 56 locations in 2018. It is now exploring a fast-casual spinoff, Bertucci's Pronto, to adapt to shifting consumer preferences. The company also pointed to broader struggles in the dining sector, citing the bankruptcies of Red Lobster <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/24/11/41700829/deal-dispatch-tgi-fridays-goes-bankrupt-bhp-backtracks-comments-and-more-m-a-news">and TGI Fridays</a>.</li>

Shares of companies in the braoder consumer discretionary sector are trading lower as stocks pull back after surging Wednesday following President Trump's tariff pause announcement.

Shares of consumer discretionary stocks are trading higher after President Trump issued a 90-day pause on reciprocal tariffs for all countries except China, which may reduce risks towards the consumer economy.

Shares of the companies in the broader consumer discretionary sector are trading lower amid US-China trade announcements and overall market weakness, which is clouding certainty around consumer spending and the state of the economy.

Shares of consumer discretionary stocks are trading lower amid continued market volatility on tariff concerns, which have driven economic uncertainty. Tariffs could disrupt supply chains and raise prices, while an economic slowdown could weaken consumer demand.

Telsey Advisory Group analyst Dana Telsey reiterated the Market Perform rating on Guess?, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GES#NYSE">GES</a>), <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/GES/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">with an unchanged price forecast of $13</a>.
Yesterday, the company reported fourth-quarter results, with adjusted earnings per share of $1.48,&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44647691/guess-plans-restructuring-strategy-to-fuel-profits-hands-china-operations-to-local-partner" rel="noreferrer noopener">beating the street view of $1.38.</a>
Telsey noted that after three uneven quarters and downward adjustments to its annual outlook, Guess? met its revenue expectations in the fourth quarter.
Despite that, lower gross margins and modest expense management led to an operating margin miss, though earnings per share landed within the guidance range thanks to a lower tax rate, the analyst adds.

The company&#8217;s CEO,&nbsp;Carlos Alberini, said Guess? is sharpening its focus on boosting global direct-to-consumer sales productivity and enhancing profitability by streamlining its <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/04/b44635906/guess-inc-reports-fiscal-year-2025-fourth-quarter-results" rel="noreferrer noopener">business operations and portfolio.</a>
As part of this strategy, the company plans to transition its long-standing direct operations in Greater China to a local partner with strong market experience, noting that discussions with several potential candidates are already underway and the transition is expected to be finalized before the fiscal year ends.
While these steps are promising, Telsey warned that near-term challenges persist, including weaker customer traffic in North America and Asia.
For the first quarter of fiscal 2026, the company projects adjusted diluted loss in the range of 65 cents to 74 cents per share (estimate: 23 cents loss per share).
Looking ahead, Telsey viewed the company&#8217;s sales guidance as solid, with first-quarter estimates aligning with forecasts and the full-year revenue outlook surpassing expectations.
Meanwhile, guidance for operating margins and EPS fell short for both the quarter and the year, reflecting a tough global macroeconomic backdrop, the analyst writes.
The analyst notes that the guidance does not include the incremental tariffs announced this week.
Per Telsey, the tariffs could add further margin pressure—though about 75% of Guess?&#8217;s revenue comes from outside the U.S.
Price Action: GES shares are trading higher by 11.5% to $11.20 at last check Friday.

Can Guess? Overcome Footfall Challenge Despite Restructuring?

Guess?, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GES#NYSE">GES</a>) shares are <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/movers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">trading lower on Friday.</a>
Yesterday, the company reported fourth-quarter results, with adjusted earnings per share of $1.48,<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/04/b44635906/guess-inc-reports-fiscal-year-2025-fourth-quarter-results" rel="noreferrer noopener"> beating the street view of $1.38</a>. Quarterly sales of $932.25 million (up 5% year over year and 9% in constant currency) outpaced the analyst consensus estimate of $907.75 million.
Adjusted operating margin decreased 3.2% to 11.4%, from 14.6% for the same prior-year quarter, driven primarily by higher expenses, higher advertising expenses and store costs, and the impact of newly acquired businesses, partially offset by lower performance-based compensation.
Restructuring Plans: The company&#8217;s CEO, Carlos Alberini, said Guess? is sharpening its focus on boosting global direct-to-consumer sales productivity and enhancing profitability by streamlining its business operations and portfolio.

As part of this strategy, the company plans to transition its long-standing direct operations in Greater China to a local partner with strong market experience, noting that discussions with several potential candidates are already underway and the transition is expected to be finalized before the fiscal year ends.
In North America, the company sees room to optimize its Guess full-price store network by closing underperforming and non-strategic locations, while also cutting costs through infrastructure consolidation.
These strategic shifts, factored into the company's fiscal 2026 outlook, are expected to deliver approximately $30 million in operating profit improvements by fiscal 2027.
Guess? also announced that Alberto Toni has been appointed as its Chief Financial Officer, effective following the filing of the company&#8217;s next Quarterly Report, which is expected<a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/44635990"> to be filed by mid-June.</a>
Toni, who will be based in Lugano, Switzerland, will succeed Interim Chief Financial Officer Dennis Secor.
Outlook: For the first quarter of fiscal 2026, the company projects adjusted diluted loss in the range of 65 cents to 74 cents per share (estimate: 23 cents loss per share).
For FY26, the company projects adjusted EPS of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance">$1.32 to $1.76 (estimate: $2.02).</a>
Alberini concluded, &#8220;As we enter fiscal year 2026, we are excited about our growth opportunities for our core Guess business, our recently launched Guess Jeans brand and our just acquired rag &amp; bone business.&#8221;
Price Action: GES shares are trading lower by 4.95% to $9.544 at last check Friday.
