David Einhorn Backs Victoria's Secret With 30% Stake Increase

Watch: Monitor upcoming earnings for confirmation that revenue growth offsets short interest pressure and sustains momentum.

David Einhorn increased his stake in Victoria's Secret by 30% in Q1 2026, signaling confidence in its turnaround. The stock trades at a forward P/E of 12.5, attractive compared to its current 27.2 trailing P/E. Despite lingering high short interest around 22%, recent insider buying and analyst bullishness support a positive outlook amid accelerating revenue growth of 7.7%.

Einhorn's investment and favorable valuation metrics reinforce the company's potential for recovery and market re-rating from a beaten-down status.
