Well, that was fun. That was my reaction to a quick spin around the Naked Brand Group (NASDAQ:NAKD) website. But a deeper dive made me realize that this is not a company that’s in it for the long haul, and by the look of the NAKD stock, it may not be in business for much

As one of the strangest states in our country, Florida is known for many things. Personally, when I think of the Sunshine State – which is not much at all – alligators are about the only thing that comes to mind. Of course, I’m being facetious. Every four years, it plays a pivotal role as
Virgin Galactic (NYSE:SPCE) seems to be in the business of making news.

With more than half the states in the U.S. considering some measures to slow down their re-opening efforts due to surging novel coronavirus cases, the markets are once again having to adjust to events.
