The Children's Place: Upgrading My Bearish View Following Further Improvements Children's Place released Q4 2024 results unexpectedly on a Friday; strange timing after a tumultuous week for investors.

The Children's Place: Tread Carefully Ahead Of Earnings PLCE stock surged on well-received quarterly results last September, but shares in the children's apparel retailer have since coughed back the bulk of these gains. Yet while uncertainty about the company's turnaround has increased over the past six months, shares have inched higher, ahead of The Children's Place's scheduled April 11 earnings release. A post-earnings return to PLCE's 52-week high, more than double current price levels, isn't out of the question, but various factors suggest it's highly uncertain this happens. seekingalpha.com - 3 months ago
