Crocs: #PowerStocks Series Pick Of The Week (May 2024)

The mid-year school holiday is coming!

Do you have any travel plans?

I’m in Down Under with my family (yes, and Alex’s family) to soak in nature and enjoy the cool weather.

Will you be heading to Down Under?

As you prepare for your holiday, the US stock market continues to rise, just like the temperature in Singapore.

Before I share this week’s #PowerStocks, let’s review last week’s.

Review Of Last Week’s Pick Of The Week

Arch Capital (ACGL) was last week’s #PowerStocks pick.

I’m happy to announce that luck was on our side.

Its share price dropped to ~$98 as anticipated, before taking off to nearly $101.

That’s a cool 3+% gain in a couple of days.

Because of these 2 major events taking place this week – the speech by Fed Chair and the release of the FOMC meeting minutes, you’ll want to take profit at the 1st sign of danger.

With a clear game plan for Arch Capital’s stock, let’s turn our attention to this week’s stock pick: Crocs (CROX).

Why Is Swing Trading Crocs (CROX) Worth It?

Crocs (CROX) is this week’s #PowerStocks pick.

It’s a footwear company that designs, develops, manufactures, markets, and sells its signature flip-flops.

How impressive can a footwear company’s stock be?

While the S&P 500 (the overall US stock market) is up 11.4% year-to-date, Crocs’ shares have soared by more than 50% in the same time period. That’s nearly a mind-blowing 5x!

That’s not all!

The share price of Crocs has been explosive, providing swing traders with numerous rewarding trades.

And there’s good news.

A pullback is here; you may want to be prepared to profit from its next explosive upmove.

What’s the price area I’m watching for an entry?

Therefore, you’ll want to be looking for buying opportunities here.

But before you do, it’s important to know the performance of the S&P 500.

How Explosive Is Crocs (CROX)?

Crocs Explosive Up Moves

In this volatile market environment, swing trading allows you to capture powerful upmoves while reducing your chances of getting caught in a market pullback.

Here, let’s examine the explosivity of Crocs’ share price.

Crocs’ share price has exploded between 5% and… wait for it… 34.6% in a matter of weeks!

Upmoves of this magnitude are highly impressive for a company with a market capitalization of more than $8.5b.

Furthermore, its share price seems to be pulling back, and I smell a swing trading opportunity emerging soon.

Should you rush to buy its share for a swing trade?

Let’s analyze its shares a little more.
