XRT is an ETF that tracks retail. Right here is the chart. https://imgur.com/a/a027rvQ
I can perceive a rally main into loosening of coronavirus restrictions and other people going out and about. Nonetheless, retail has been on a decline for years. You’ll be able to see this ETF was buying and selling within the 40s in 2016 and now its all the best way as much as mid 90s? Does anybody have a very good clarification for this or are these corporations manner overvalued?
The one factor I can consider to justify the valuations is {that a} ton of those retailers who had been slowly dropping for the previous couple of years have been pushed to expedite their ecommerce transition throughout COVID so it’s potential that these valuations are secondary to the retail market truly efficiently pivoting.
Any ideas?
