NYSE:BBY Best Buy - BULLISH BIAS
- A declining Yen makes Japanese electronic goods more appealing.
- Electronic goods retails in the US eg) Best Buy, can import a higher volume of these electronics as USD strengthens and Yen declines, providing them more purchasing power,
- Profit margins on these goods may see an uplift and should help to offset some of the impacts caused by tougher economic conditions.
- Although two key risk factors involve over-purchasing and keeping excess inventory in storage and also the potential reduction in consumer demand.
