In the said letter, Brown Advisory highlighted a few stocks and TJX Companies Inc (NYSE:TJX) is one of them. TJX Companies Inc (NYSE:TJX) is an off-price department store company. Year-to-date, TJX Companies Inc (NYSE:TJX) stock lost 12.1% and on July 22nd it had a closing price of $53.44. Here is what Brown Advisory said:
“In May, TJX Companies announced first-quarter results and higher sales across the ~1,100 stores that had been re-opened for at least one week. Unsurprisingly, it posted a large net loss, attributable to the closure of all of its stores for about half of the quarter. We are confident in the company’s ability to manage costs and to delight customers despite reduced traffic due to social distancing. We trimmed the position earlier in the quarter to account for current headwinds.”
In Q1 2020, the number of bullish hedge fund positions on TJX Companies Inc (NYSE:TJX) stock increased by about 21% from the previous quarter (see the chart here), so a number of other hedge fund managers seem to agree with TJX’s growth potential.
