Why consensus could be wrong
The Street may be underestimating the impact of rising consumer confidence on Tanger's foot traffic and sales, which could lead to better-than-expected results.
Supporting evidence
Recent trends show increased consumer spending in retail, which could benefit Tanger's properties.
Options pricing suggests a larger move than historical averages, indicating potential for surprise.
Tanger's recent focus on enhancing tenant mix may lead to improved occupancy and revenue.
Key risk
If occupancy rates rise significantly, it could challenge the consensus view of a slow retail recovery.
Pre-commit to what would confirm each case.
This quarter's performance hinges on how well Tanger navigates the current retail landscape and manages its properties.
Bull confirmed if
An EPS above $0.24, coupled with strong occupancy rates, would confirm the bull case.
Bear confirmed if
An EPS below $0.24 or declining occupancy rates would support the bear case.
