(00:14) Nick Sciple and Dylan Lewis discuss:

- Why Wall Street wasn’t keen on strong holiday updates from Abercrombie and Fitch and Lululemon, and where these brands sit in their market opportunity.

- Aritzia’s continued expansion into the U.S. and how the everyday luxury retailer is appealing to the key shopping demo.

- The dominant theme in physical retail right now: in-store experiences matter, especially for Gen Z shoppers.
