CarMax (NYSE:KMX) Azioni, Report sulle vendite allo scoperto

CarMax

CarMax sells, finances, and services used and new cars through a chain of around 250 used retail stores. It was formed in 1993 as a unit of Circuit City and spun off into an independent company in late 2002. Used-vehicle sales typically account for about 83% of revenue (79% in fiscal 2024 due to the chip shortage) and wholesale about 13% (19% in fiscal 2024), with the remaining portion composed of extended service plans and repair. In fiscal 2024, the company retailed and wholesaled 765,572, and 546,331 used vehicles, respectively. CarMax is the largest used-vehicle retailer in the US but still estimates that it had only about 3.7% US market share of vehicles 0-10 years old in 2023. It seeks over 5% share a few years from now. CarMax is based in Richmond, Virginia.

These Large-Cap Stocks With China And EU Exposure Got Crushed In The One Of The Most Volatile Trading Week (Apr 7-Apr 11): Are These In Your Portfolio?

Truist Securities analyst Scot Ciccarelli reiterated a Hold rating on the shares of Carmax Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KMX#NYSE">KMX</a>) with a price forecast of $88.00.
CarMax delivered <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44733776/carmax-accelerates-with-6-growth-in-used-car-sales-despite-earnings-miss" rel="noreferrer noopener">strong fourth-quarter results</a>, with used vehicle same-store sales rising 5.1%, slightly below expectations but showing notable improvement from the prior quarter.
Average selling prices remained steady year over year, and unit volume aligned with projections. Adjusted earnings per share were estimated at $0.64, slightly above the expected $0.62.
The company reaffirmed its long-term targets but removed the specific timelines due to economic uncertainty. Tariffs are expected to have mixed effects on the business, said the analyst.
As a result, tariffs may boost used car demand due to pricier new cars, but they could also potentially price out some consumers.

RBC Capital analyst Steven Shemesh maintained an Outperform rating on the shares and lowered the price forecast from $103 to $80.
CarMax outlined several encouraging developments. First-quarter same-store sales are trending in the high-single-digit range, with momentum building from February into March and April.
The company continues to improve operating efficiency, leveraging SG&amp;A expenses by 770 basis points year over year to roughly 91% of gross profit.
Market share stabilized year over year, with gains in the second half of FY2025, particularly in the 0–4-year vehicle segment, said the analyst.
CarMax expects its loan loss provisions to rise 40%–50% in first-quarter, hitting around $68 million, due to seasonal factors and a shift back to retaining more subprime loan volume.
Management views this quarter as the likely peak, with future quarters remaining at the higher end of the $70–$105 million range, assuming stable lending conditions.
The company also broadened its definition of "omnichannel sales," now covering more customer interactions, raising the metric to 67% of retail sales.
Lastly, CarMax aims to increase CarMax Auto Finance penetration by 100–150 basis points by reclaiming previously outsourced loan originations.
Price Action: KMX shares closed higher by 2.87% at $68.36 at last check Friday.

9 Consumer Discretionary Stocks Moving In Thursday's Intraday Session

After a spectacular risk-on rally on Wednesday, Wall Street sharply pulled back during Thursday's trading, as investors digested the 90-day tariff pause and weighed lingering economic <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s">risks to the outlook.</a>
Even a sharply lower-than-expected inflation report did little to support risk sentiment — a testament to how susceptible investors <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s/25/04/44733390/march-inflation-rate-cools-far-more-than-expected-raises-hopes-for-near-term-fed-rate-cuts">remain to economic uncertainty.</a>
The Consumer Price Index fell from 2.8% year-over-year in February to 2.4% in March, below expectations of 2.6% and marking the lowest reading since September 2024. On a monthly basis, inflation was negative by 0.1% — the first decline since May 2020.
While the data bolstered the case for near-term Fed rate cuts — markets are pricing in an 88% chance of a 0.25% move by June — traders remained cautious amid the ongoing tariff drama.

The S&amp;P 500 dropped 4.8% by midday in New York, erasing about half of Wednesday's historic gains, which had marked the index&#8217;s strongest rally since 2008. The Nasdaq 100 tumbled 5.4%, while small caps in the Russell 2000 sank 5.3%.
Despite the pullback in equities, traditional safe havens like Treasuries and the dollar also fell, raising concerns about waning international confidence in U.S. assets.
The U.S. dollar index — as tracked by the Invesco DB USD Index Bullish Fund ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UUP#NYSE">UUP</a>) — nosedived 2% to the 101 level, its lowest since late September 2024.
Yields on 30-year Treasuries surged by 11 basis points to 4.85%, as bond vigilantes appeared to reassert themselves —effectively flashing red signals in Washington.
Meanwhile, gold continued to deliver stellar returns, with bullion hitting fresh record highs of $3,175 per ounce, up 2.4% on the day. Over the past two sessions, gold has rallied nearly 6%, the biggest two-day gain since March 2020.
On Thursday, the White House announced that the actual tariff rate on Chinese imports will be 145%. Meanwhile, the U.S. House of Representatives passed a budget plan extending the Trump-era tax cuts. Trump welcomed the news, saying it laid the groundwork for what he called "the largest tax and regulation cuts&#8221; in American history.

U.S. stock futures were lower on Thursday after staging a stellar recovery on Wednesday after a tariff pause. Futures of major benchmark indices were down in premarket.
President Donald Trump attributed the tariff pause to negotiation efforts by roughly 75 non-retaliating nations in a Truth Social post.
Amid investor anxiety regarding trade barrier impacts on the economy, the investors will keep an eye on the upcoming Consumer Price Index data. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell emphasized last week that there is &#8220;no rush&#8221; to lower rates.
Economists&#8217; <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44716504/sink-or-swim-why-this-weeks-inflation-report-is-crucial-for-markets">median forecast anticipates</a> a 2.6% annual increase in the overall CPI for March 2025, a moderation from February&#8217;s 2.8% and the smallest inflation figure since October 2024. Monthly price growth is projected to be a mere 0.1%. 
The core CPI, excluding volatile food and energy prices, is expected to ease slightly to a 3.0% year-over-year rate, compared to February&#8217;s 3.1%. However, the monthly core CPI is predicted to rise to 0.3%, an increase from the previous month&#8217;s 0.2% pace.
The 10-year Treasury bond yielded 4.29% and the two-year bond was at 3.85%. The CME Group's FedWatch <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">tool</a>&#8216;s projections show markets pricing a 79.8% likelihood of the Federal Reserve keeping the current interest rates unchanged in its May meeting.

(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) surging around 19%, and Tesla Inc.

Insights From Analysts:
Charlie Bilello from Creative Planning said in an X post that the S&amp;P 500 logged its third-biggest one-day gain since 1950 on Wednesday.
After logging the biggest one-day gains in the past, the &#8220;Stocks moved substantially higher over the next 1, 3, 5 years every time,&#8221; he added.

Ryan Detrick from Carson Research cited historical data and concluded that after the S&amp;P 500 index gains over 5% in one day, the returns on the next day and in the next week are &#8220;fairly weak.&#8221;
On average, after such a gain, the S&amp;P 500 index falls by 0.7% the next day and by 1.7% in the next five days. However, the yearly gains after such a day are usually 26.9%.

Bridgewater Associates&#8217; billionaire founder, Ray Dalio, in an X post, praised Trump&#8217;s move to shift from escalating tensions to negotiation, calling it &#8220;a much better way,&#8221; and then pressed the President to finalize a trade agreement with China and reduce the fiscal deficit to 3% of GDP.
Dalio proposed a China deal featuring &#8220;appreciating the RMB against the dollar,&#8221; achievable through &#8220;Chinese selling dollar assets while also easing their fiscal and monetary policies to stimulate their demand.&#8221;
