S&P 500 Gains and Losses Today: Dollar General Stock Plummets After Earnings Miss

Dollar General Corporation's stock price dropped over 30% after weak results and lowered guidance, but I see it as a buying opportunity with a $100 target. Weak consumer demand, especially among low-income households, and high-interest rates are pressuring Dollar General's growth, but initiatives like supply chain optimization are promising. Despite poor results, I project 6.3% revenue growth in FY24 and a return to 9% growth from FY25, assuming interest rate cuts.

After today's earnings, Dollar General went down almost another 30% since 2Q'23 earnings. After a more encouraging SSS of +2.4% 1Q'24, SSS decelerated to just +0.5% in 2Q'24. I do not plan to add further capital to DG; I will, however, stay invested as I think the stock can still prove to be a potential hedge if the softness in low-end consumers ends up spreading to the middle class in the coming quarters.

Dollar General Corporation (DG) Q2 2024 Earnings Call Transcript

Dollar General's recent earnings report shows weak growth and declining profits, leading to a sharp drop in its stock and concerns over consumer health. Rising competition from Walmart, Aldi, and ultra-low-cost brands like Temu further challenges DG's business model, especially in non-food categories. While the stock is down, risks remain high. I believe DG's landlords offer safer returns in this tough market, with more stability and income potential.
