- Thursday, April 18, 12:30 PM Department store chains are trading weak with weak economic indicators and chatter on weak sales trends at Wal-Mart (WMT -1.5%) swaying sentiment. The sector is already a bit jitterish with Target's (TGT -0.9%) Q1 sales warnings from earlier in the week still resonating. Decliners include Sears Holdings (SHLD -2.5%), Nordstrom (JWN -1.4%), Saks (SKS -1.6%), and Macy's (M -1.2%) - while Fred's (FRED +0.1%) and J.C. Penney (JCP +1.6%) are bucking the trend. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Wednesday, March 20, 10:57 AM A number of discounter stocks are catching a tailwind today as investors seem to be shifting their attitudes toward the outlook for discretionary spending or shifting from topped-out sectors. Advancers include the dollar store group - Family Dollar Stores (FDO +2.9%), Dollar General (DG +2.5%), and Dollar Tree (DLTR +2.9%) - while Five Below (FIVE +1.3%) and Fred's (FRED +2%) are also outperforming. Even retail giants Target (TGT +1.5%) and Wal-Mart (WMT +0.7%) aren't getting left behind. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Thursday, January 3, 11:09 AM Shares of Five Below (FIVE -1%) can't get out of the way out of a selling off of discounters kickstarted when Family Dollar posted disappointing FQ1 results and guidance for FQ2. Also feeling the margin pain is Fred's (FRED -2.5%) and Gordmans Stores (GMAN -0.7%) - while even Wal-Mart (WMT -1.2%) appears to be getting pulled into the fray. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Thursday, August 23, 2012, 12:14 PM Fred's (FRED -9.4%) Q2 earnings beat on the top line as net income rose 19% on a benefit from an income tax settlement, which partially offset store closing costs and promotional markdowns. But the company lowered the bottom end of its FY12 EPS guidance by a penny, and warned of an "intensely" competitive retail environment in the third and fourth quarters. Comment! [Earnings, On the Move]
- Monday, July 2, 2012, 11:10 AM Family Dollar (FDO +2.2%) trades higher as Johnson Rice upgrades shares to Overweight from Underweight. The discounter trade is back on in light of a fresh wave of discouraging economic data, with Dollar General (DG +0.7%), Big Lots (BIG +0.9%), Fred's (FRED +0.9%), and TJX (TJX +0.4%) all poking out gains. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Thursday, June 14, 2012, 10:19 AM Shares of a number of discount retailers are trading higher as investors digest recent retail sales trends and economic releases to bet that shoppers will continue to trade down. Advancers: FDO +4.9%, DG +1.1%, FRED +3.3%, COST +2.5%. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Thursday, January 5, 2012, 9:34 AM Fred's (FRED -1.1%) says it sees FQ4 earnings coming in at the low to midpoint of its previously issued guidance range after December sales were hit by unseasonably warm weather. Same-store sales dropped off 0.4% in December, missing the 1.8% mark of analysts by a wide margin. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Thursday, September 15, 2011, 1:36 PM Discount retailer Fred's (FRED -2.7%) takes a hit today after Deutsche initiates it with a sell, citing headwinds related to its geographic exposure and pharmacy trends. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Thursday, September 1, 2011, 3:14 PM Though Macy's (M +2.3%) is gaining after reporting August same-store sales that beat Street estimates, most firms that reported (I, II, III) are following the market lower. JCP -1%. ROST -2%. SKS -2%. TJX -3.2%. FRED -2.5%. LTD -1.9%. ZUMZ -2.7%. JWN -1.4%. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
