After re inventing itself as the new J C Penny, TGT earnings came in at 2.19 well below the expected 3.07. Investors then shot it in the head dropping the stock price 25%, and that is just today. Other retailers are also being hit with the ETF Consumer Staples down.
In bull markets all news is bullish, In bear markets all news is bearish.
this wipes out all the gains since January 2021, a drop of 38% from the Fall 2021 high. Think how many billions that wiped out in mkt cap just in this one stock.
First the latest high fliers like Peloton, Teladoc, and other Covid stsocks tank. Then the panic spreads to the more mainstream like TGT. Gee TGT still made money in an online shopping world. And the market knows of the supply chain woes, they punished the stock anyway.
