I think FL (Foot Locker) is worth a toss before we miss all the Retailers. At $28, they are at $3Bn and if they are making $400M - that's a p/e of 8 and we have wriggle room:

For the LTP:
- Sell 10 FL 2022 $25 puts for $7.50 ($7,500)
- Buy 30 FL 2022 $25 calls for $9.40 ($28,200)
- Sell 30 FL 2022 $37.50 calls for $5.40 ($16,200)
That's net $4,500 on the $37,500 spread so that's 733% upside potential in 18 months if FL can get back to $37.50. Ordinary margin on the $25 puts is just $1,539 so it's a very efficient play as well.
