Open to allIt's unclear why the NRF rejected Shein's membership application, but according to one of the people familiar, someone with sway is strongly against the company's admittance. The NRF's board has a leadership team and an executive committee. An NRF membership application form that can be found online states: "Companies principally engaged in retailing are eligible for membership in the Federation." Two of the board members said they weren't aware of any instances where the NRF denied a retailer membership. "I don't think they are in the business of turning anyone down," one of the board members told CNBC.

[1/2] A branch of First Republic Bank is seen. First Republic collapsed May 1, making it the largest bank failure since the 2008 financial crisis. The filings did not show whether Scion had sold its positions before then. The positions were revealed in quarterly securities fillings known as 13-fs. Burry was featured in the 2010 nonfiction book "The Big Short" by Michael Lewis which was made into a popular movie five years later.
But American consumers have yet to take to live shopping in the same way. In 2016, the e-commerce giant Alibaba launched Taobao Live, popularizing live shopping in China. Alongside Poshmark, QVC’s parent company Qurate recently started Sune, a live shopping app targeting Gen Z. Last year, Walmart, YouTube and eBay added or expanded their live shopping features. “In a very few short months, they’re proving that this form of live shopping works,” he added, referring to Posh Shows sellers like Ms. Lazovic.
The biggest week of this earnings season showed us that things aren't as bad as many feared. The week ahead of earnings, including several more Club names, should tell us more. The results are always important, but it's the guidance and management commentary we will really hone in on to better understand the path ahead. In Amazon's case, a solid first quarter for its AWS cloud business was overshadowed by management seeing a material slowdown in April. ET: Nonfarm Payrolls Looking back It was the biggest week of this earnings season for the Club as several of our mega-cap holdings and industry bellwethers reported results.
Michael Burry, known for calling the subprime mortgage crisis, picked up a slew of stocks in the fourth quarter including two Chinese internet giants, according to a new regulatory filing. The famed investor bought $9.3 million worth of mortgage data vendor Black Knight last quarter, as well as $5.3 million worth of Coherent , a manufacturer of optical materials and semiconductors. Burry also bought into a duo of Chinese e-commerce leaders — Alibaba and JD.com — during the fourth quarter. Burry was depicted in Michael Lewis' book "The Big Short" and the subsequent Oscar-winning movie of the same name. It's also unclear if Burry took any bearish bets last quarter, as short positions are not disclosed in these reports.
Michael Burry built new stakes in Alibaba, JD.com, and MGM Resorts last quarter. The investor of "The Big Short" fame may have spied value in beaten-down Chinese tech stocks. The investor of "The Big Short" fame bought 50,000 American Depositary Shares (ADS) of Alibaba, valued at $4.4 million on December 31. He also scooped up 75,000 American Depositary Receipts (ADR) of JD.com, worth $4.2 million at the end of last year. Burry's Scion Asset Management also purchased 100,000 shares of MGM, a position worth $3.4 million at last quarter's close.
"The Big Short" investor Michael Burry, known for calling the subprime mortgage crisis, hinted that he currently has a sizable short position after being bearish throughout 2022. "You have no idea how short I am," Burry said in a Tuesday evening tweet. It's unclear what kind of bet Burry is making, if he's shorting any specific sectors or stocks or just the whole market. A new regulatory filing showed at the end of the third quarter, Burry held relatively small positions in just six names. Short positions are not disclosed in quarterly reports.
The move comes after fund manager Burry dumped a dozen positions in the second quarter, including Facebook parent Meta Platforms (META.O), and replaced them with a new stake in prison company Geo Group Inc (GEO.N). A regulatory filing on Monday showed he bought roughly 1.5 million additional shares in Geo Group in the third quarter. Burry also added $7.8 million stake in CoreCivic, the filing showed. Shares in Geo Group, CoreCivic and Aerojet are up year-to-date, outperforming the S&P 500, which is down 16.3% on the year. Fund managers are not required to disclose short positions, which profit when a company's shares fall.

Famed investor Michael Burry, known for calling the subprime mortgage crisis, jumped back into the market to pick up a few stocks in the third quarter, according to a new regulatory filing.
