#Earnings I don’t know this stock and it’s a fairly new issue. It has moved steadily up since IPO. Only three earnings reports; two positive, one slightly negative but recovered within a week. I am using a spread because it is too new and unknown to risk naked.

#Earnings Bought to close one (1) $W Aug 11th 80/75 put spread for 4.95. A nickel less than expiration. I will try to close the rest for less.

#Earnings It looks like $W is a bust, and $PLCE under pressure, too. Wayfair suffers from mediocre earnings report, a weak market, and then more weak retail earnings last night.
