My retail stocks are like Dresden during the fire bombings. I only have a couple, but TGT and ANF have been taking a beating, and I think they're typical.
Do we think they'll bounce back or are all retail stocks going the way of Montgomery Wards? I'm curious if this is a buying opportunity or the beginning of a mass extinction event. |

I guess what it really comes down to is that I have zero confidence that retail will outperform other sectors where money could be invested. I'd far rather get a little retail by having the money in an index mutual fund, than be directly invested in a retail company.

I've heard nothing about anything Target is doing other than dying a slow death. They may have some grand plan or something I don't follow them closely. I just looked at ANF and it's up 13+% today. I see their earnings report came out today.. it must have been favorable. |

I'm not on my own network today so as a policy I don't get into any of my financial accounts. That's excellent news about ANF. If it does that a couple more days in a row, I might be profitable on it. |

Traditional retail scares the shit out of me. I don't really see much to invest in. Very few, only niche companies with stand alone stores. Anything tied to an indoor mall is pretty much dead on arrival.

I doubt any of them release it but it is all driven by inventory efficiency (probably calculated as inventory turns or inventory as a % of sales) and sales/sq ft. That's where amazon is hell on these fools. They set up the infrastructure and make vendors hold the inventory and do the shipping. There may be a buying opportunity if labor laws relax some or something maybe. But I don't see what is going to make retail more profitable save structural changes or taxes that would hurt online sales. |

The problem with Target is it was supposed to be an alternative to shitty ass walmart, well guess what, now we got so many dumb ****s in the USA they spilled over to Target.
