TJX Companies: Bright Spot in Awful Retail Environment

Ted,

Thanks for your comment. I do believe that TJX will be able to continue its growth as long as their is adequate 'supply' in close-outs. Unfortunately sometimes success breeds problems for if they develop too many outlets, and find that they haven't enough quality close-outs, the attractiveness of the shopping experience might suffer along with results. O.K. I shall now stop criticizing my ownd decision to buy shares :).

TJX Companies: Bright Spot in Awful Retail Environment

My Stock Club "Investnuts" bought a few shares of TJX and I reviewed some of the information for them. Here is the formal review and finally an entry on my blog about TJX Companies (TJX) the parent institution of our favorite TJMaxx. Hope you all enjoy it.
