TJX Companies

TJX Companies is the leading off-price retailer of apparel, accessories, and home merchandise in the United States.

Over three quarters of TJX's sales are derived from the United States, primarily via the T.J. Maxx, Marshalls, and HomeGoods banners. About 10% of sales are from Canada and 12% from Europe and Australia.

After a week of massive market losses tied to Team <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44698325/trump-tariff-strategy-self-inflicted-market-debacle-says-wedbush-analyst">Trump's polarizing tariff</a> policy, U.S. consumers are understandably worried.
As of April 10, the S&amp;P 500 Index was down 2.20% over the past five trading days, including a big pop of over 1,400 points on April 9 and a 9.52% gain for SPX—the index&#8217;s 10th biggest day ever.&nbsp;
That hasn't pacified investors or consumers, even as other economic markers are trending positive. Exhibit "A" is inflation, with the US consumer price index falling by 0.1% in March, the lowest monthly rating since the COVID-19 pandemic.
Yet the widely-used University of Michigan consumer sentiment February survey showed consumer confidence falling to a 29-month low, a signal that US households are struggling right now.
However, some U.S. consumer sectors have proved immune to the worst of tariff hikes.
These three US consumer brands, in particular, are well-positioned to prosper during these trade wars.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Looking For Stabilizing Consumer Stocks</h2>
"The March inflation number was nice, but don't get used to it," said Greg McBride, chief financial analyst at Bankrate. "The headline Consumer Price Index for March decreased – aided by lower gasoline prices &#8211; and the annual increase in the core rate posted a 4-year low of 2.8 percent, which shows how tough it has been for household budgets during that time. But consumers, businesses, and even the Federal Reserve are bracing for higher prices in the months ahead."
With everything from Buicks to Barbie Dolls rising in price during the trade wars, and even with President Trump's April 9 call to pause the tariff hikes, consumers are scrambling for cover and spending less on goods. That's bad news for consumer stocks, as the S&amp;P 500 Consumer Staples index is only up 2.21% for the year to date and down 3.27 % over the past five days.
&#8220;New loan and bond issuance has come to a halt (as have M&amp;A and IPOs), as nobody wants to go to market right now given all the uncertainty," said John Bringardner, executive editor at Debtwire. "Air freight companies, airlines, retailers importing goods from China, and Indian pharmaceutical companies are among those we&#8217;ve written recently that are trading down following the latest tariff activity."
The tariff hikes haven&#8217;t affected some US consumer sectors much, though.
"Retailers, warehouses, and consumer staples companies are good examples of some sectors that are actually holding up fine, despite the issues," said Fabio Ruggeri, founder &amp; CEO of MenthorQ, a TradeTech company that specializes in developing advanced quantitative models for active investors. "They sell essential items and are less exposed to tariff-driven price swings. That makes them more resilient in these kinds of markets."
It&#8217;s all about geography right now when tracking consumer stocks.
"While global consumer brands are navigating these increased costs, U.S.-focused sectors that have already localized their sourcing are feeling less pain and, in some cases, gaining ground as competitors are still trying to figure out what to do next," Ruggeri said.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Three Stocks to Stabilize A Portfolio</h2>
In particular, these three consumer brands seem well-positioned during the trade wars.
TJX Companies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TJX#NYSE">TJX</a>), a major retailer, is a "safe place" for investors in turbulent economic cycles. "TJX Companies is built for this kind of environment," said&nbsp; Joseph Camberato, CEO at the private lending firm National Business Capital. "They source goods from other retailers typically inside the U.S., so they don't have to pay tariffs. And when prices rise everywhere else, more shoppers start hunting for deals. Stores like these tend to do very well in these times.&#8221;
TJX shares are up 5.51% for the year.
Or consider Coca-Cola (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KO#NYSE">KO</a>). Even if Trump is on the money and tariff deals with over 50 nations can be negotiated, that process will still take a while and may lead to supply chain disruptions, a weaker dollar and potentially big layoffs, especially at China-exposed companies.
Consumer staples can carry investors through periods of massive volatility, and there are few larger consumer companies than Coca-Cola and its $304 billion market cap. The stock has been up over 13% year to date and up 1.5% over the past trading week when many stocks lost significant ground. In a recent research note, Morgan Stanley issued an overweight call on KO, citing Coke "as increasingly in a league of their own."
Coca-Cola's big advantage over consumer goods giants like PepsiCo is that it doesn't produce snack foods and thus doesn't have to worry as much over supply chain woes or consumer demand. In turbulent times, when it pays to be lean and mean, having a Coke and a smile is a tempting proposition for stranded investors, especially with KO's robust 2.88% dividend yield.
Finally, Monster Beverage (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MNST#NASDAQ">MNST</a>) is on a tear right now, with the share price up 15.6% over the past three months and up 4.9% over the past month.
The company recently reacted swiftly to an allegation from a short-selling firm of trading improprieties. Monster issued a letter aggressively denying the charges, saying the document was "released by a self-interested activist short seller is filled with and based on inaccuracies and aspersions that appear to be designed to distort the Company's record and share price for its own gain." The response seemed to calm shareholder anxieties and signaled that the company management would quickly tamp down any potential negative news.
Analysts are bullish on the stock, with Citi's Filipo Falorni reaffirming a buy rating on MNST with a one-year price target of $64.00 (the stock is currently trading at $57 per share.
Morgan Stanley followed suit, with an overweight call on the stock, "driven by a resurgence in US sales behind rebounding category growth (gas/convenience recovery), the positive impact of price increases, sequential MNST US market share improvement with building innovation, and easier comparisons," the firm noted in a recent research note.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Be Prepared</h2>
Choosing any stock in harsh market climates is a tall task, and that's where reasonable due diligence can save the day.
&#8220;If you're eyeing consumer stocks, do your homework," Camberato advised. "Figure out where the company sources its products. If the company is sourcing from China, that's a red flag. Even if the company is big enough to dictate terms, it&#8217;s most likely still going to have a tough time."
High-yield bonds are a decent place to park money if you&#8217;re more conservative. "Just don't assume cash is safe," Camberato added. "Cash is more dangerous than anything due to inflation. Volatility spooks people, but knee-jerk reactions kill long-term gains.&#8221;

Shares of broader consumer discretionary stocks are trading higher following President Trump's decision to implement a 90-day pause on reciprocal tariffs for all countries except China.

While Wall Street is celebrating the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44686417/wall-street-soars-as-trump-teases-trade-deals-magnificent-seven-add-over-500-billion-in-market-value">possibility of positive economic negotiations</a>, the sentiment boost can be a bit of a nightmare for options traders. With the whipsaw effect, there's a strong likelihood that long or bullish contracts are overpriced, effectively meaning that speculators must pay a heftier premium for their wagers. There is a case to be made, though, that TJX Companies Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TJX#NYSE">TJX</a>), offers one of the most sensible propositions.
Frankly, TJX stock is about keeping things simple. On the fundamental front, the underlying enterprise — which specializes in off-price fashion — is essentially resistant to recessions and tariffs. Of course, it's not marketed as such, but investors can read between the lines. With <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44677660/the-new-bull-case-for-dollar-tree-raise-prices-boost-margins-blame-tariffs">consumers likely to drive into discount-price leaders</a>, the retailer is ideally positioned under the present economic and political context.
On a technical level, TJX stock generally moves in a stepwise fashion: it rises, enters a sideways consolidation as it gains strength, then moves onto the next leg higher. Therefore, the speculation is that the equity is on the tail end of its current consolidation pattern.
Adding to this concept is the likelihood that the market has largely digested the implications of &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/04/44696616/dow-plunges-1178-points-after-trumps-liberation-day-tariffs-jd-vance-says-we-wont-fix-things-overnight">Liberation Day</a>,&#8221; the sweeping wave of tariffs imposed on multiple economic partners. Sure, the magnitude of the levies was higher than analysts expected. At the same time, the tariffs are now old news.
Moving forward, investors will anticipate the market's next move. Since consumers being more price sensitive is an accepted reality, TJX stock commands a logical basis for rising from here on out.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">TJX Stock Arguably Offers the Most Compelling Math</h2>
As stated earlier, the jolt of upside enthusiasm may be good for the "normals" of Wall Street but it can be terrible for options traders. Now, call options are overpriced, with market makers anticipating the good times to come rolling in. Put another way, because the odds of upside are perceived to be strong, long speculators must pay a larger premium for their wagers.
Under this environment, it's extremely difficult to find debit-based strategies that carry characteristics of credit spreads, a phenomenon I termed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/04/44673068/extreme-fear-sparks-nvda-stock-call-spread-risk-inversion">risk inversion</a>. Instead, the next best approach is to consider the best deal the market is willing to give long-side speculators.
Certain bull call spreads — transactions that involve the interplay of long and short calls to create a "discounted" net bullish position — for TJX stock meet the above requirement. Statistically speaking, TJX commands an upward bias. Using data over the past six years, a position held for one week will rise 55.66% of the time. These odds generally improve with the passage of time.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/08144806/TJX-stock-probability-gambit-1-1024x576.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-862595" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/08144806/TJX-stock-probability-gambit-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/08144806/TJX-stock-probability-gambit-1-300x169.jpg 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/08144806/TJX-stock-probability-gambit-1-768x432.jpg 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/08144806/TJX-stock-probability-gambit-1.jpg 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Image by author</figcaption></figure>
Not only that, but under the positive scenario, the weekly returns of TJX stock are surprisingly robust, coming in at about 2%. That's all that's necessary to leverage the power of multi-leg options strategies — such as the bull call spread — to extract sizable rewards.
This is also the reason why speculators need to be careful under jubilant conditions such as now. With call options overpriced, bullish traders are lulled into paying a "premium-plus." It's not just meeting the strike price target that is the challenge; rather, it's the heightened premium on top of that strike price that makes long positions so expensive today.
Therefore, the takeaway isn't that TJX stock is the greatest deal ever. Instead, the argument is that it offers the most sensible long-side transaction under present circumstances.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Quick Scalps Available for Swing Traders</h2>
An aggressive but tempting idea to consider is the 120/123 bull call spread expiring this Friday. This transaction involves buying the $120 call (at a time-of-writing ask of $291) and simultaneously selling the $123 call (at a bid of $99), resulting in a net debit paid of $192, which is also the most that can be lost in the trade.
The idea here is for TJX stock to hit the $123 short strike price at expiration. If so, it would trigger the maximum reward, which is the difference between the strike prices (multiplied by 100 shares) minus the debit paid, or $108. This translates to a maximum payout of over 56%. It's risky but sensible considering that today's high was $124.87.
Another approach is to consider the 120/124 bull spread expiring next Thursday, April 17. What's tempting here is the max payout of just over 73%. Further, over a two-week period, TJX stock should land somewhere around $124, assuming the positive scenario.
Since the retailer is well-positioned for the current economic chaos, the positive outcome materializing is a rational proposition.

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.

Shares of retail, apparel, and e-commerce companies are trading higher. Investors may be interpreting the release of better-than-expected ADP employment data as a sign of strength for the industry.

In the current session, the stock is trading at $124.00, after a 1.04% increase. Over the past month, TJX Companies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TJX#NYSE">TJX</a>) stock increased by 0.79%, and in the past year, by 29.51%. With performance like this, long-term shareholders are optimistic but others are more likely to look into the price-to-earnings ratio to see if the stock might be overvalued.

<h3>A Look at TJX Companies P/E Relative to Its Competitors</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of 20.64 in the Specialty Retail industry, TJX Companies Inc. has a higher P/E ratio of 28.81. Shareholders might be inclined to think that TJX Companies Inc. might perform better than its industry group. It's also possible that the stock is overvalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1743609703_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes.
