Is this a pun or double entendre?

I sent an email to a coworker this morning about the price of JC Penny's stock ($1.50ish /share). I titled the email "JC Penny Stock".

He responded with, "nice pun." However, I thought it was double entendre and not a pun.

What's the right answer?

P.S. Yes, it was a slow day at work and no, I am not gay.

You sure you're not gay, cause you sure sound gay.

1.50 is like over 100 pennies

double entendre is usually associated with sexual things.

I say pun. Puns normally revolve around a single word with two meanings where double entendres usually involve a full phrase and normally one meaning is "dirty".
