- Friday, May 17, 7:03 AM Limited Brands (LTD) is downgraded by Jefferies to Underperform and assigned a lower price target of $40. Comment! [Consumer]
- Thursday, May 9, 11:55 AM Retail stocks (XRT) were bid up a bit too much, according to AlixPartners' Steve Nevill. High-profile misses on April sales from Limited Brands (LTD -1.8%) and Costco (COST -0.3%) - as well as the soft Q1 numbers from Ann (ANN +4.3%) and Wet Seal (WTSL +5.7%) show that Wall Street might have been expecting too big of a bounce in consumer spending too soon. The price-aware climate appears just right for TJX Companies (TJX +0.8%) and Ross Stores (ROST +0.3%) though, as the pair kept up its winning ways during the month. Comment! [Consumer]
- Thursday, May 9, 7:24 AM More on Limited Brands' (LTD) sales: Victoria's Secret sales fell the most from last year, while Bath & Body Works sales held up the best. The retailer raises Q1 EPS guidance to $0.46, from a prior estimate of $0.40 to $0.45. Comment! [Consumer]
- Thursday, May 9, 7:15 AM Limited Brands (LTD) Apr. same-store sales:+2% vs. consensus of +4.6%. Total Sales flat% to 660.5M. (PR) Comment! [Consumer]
- Tuesday, May 7, 9:29 AM Retail sales numbers for April could be a tad weaker than expected after weekly reports from Redbook and ICSC-Goldman on chain store sales both came in a bit below expectations. Retail read-through: Weather and swings in gas prices seemed to impact store traffic to malls (KSS, DDS, JCP, LTD, GPS, ANF, AEO) and supercenters (WMT, COST TGT), but economists think consumer confidence on the high end (TIF, RL, SKS, COH, BBBY) just might be on the rise. Also, with online sales de-emphasized in the weekly chain store reports - Internet whiz kids Macy's (M) and Urban Outfitters (URBN) could still outperform even if mall parking lots aren't packed. 1 Comment [Consumer, U.S. Economy]
- Friday, April 12, 11:47 AM Retailers start to feverishly launch and promote their spring lines after the weather in March gave them a very small window to work with. Though retail sales came in decidedly sluggish last month, on-trend firms such as Zumiez (ZUMZ -0.6%) and Limited Brands (LTD +0.8%) bucked the trend neatly. Watch Abercrombie & Fitch (ANF -2.1%), Francesca's Holdings (FRAN +1%), and Urban Outfitters (URBN -0.6%) in April tips Janney Capital Markets. 1 Comment [Consumer]
- Friday, April 12, 10:08 AM The percentage of women shoppers moving toward buying items online continues to increase at a rapid rate. According to a market survey, 89% of women now use online browsing over store hopping to compare items and 47% complete their purchases online compared to 45% in stores. The trend works in the favor of retailers with thriving e-commerce and mobile channels. Limited Brands (LTD -1.3%), Macy's (M +2.1%), and Urban Outfitters (URBN -0.6%) come to mind - while Amazon (AMZN -0.4%) doesn't mind the coach potato shopping syndrome one little bit either. 2 Comments [Consumer]
- Thursday, April 11, 7:37 AM More on Limited Brands (LTD) March sales: The retailer beat estimates with its modest 3% gain in sales, paced by gains at La Senza (+7%) and Bath & Body Works (+4%). Direct sales at Victoria's Secret were a disappointment by falling 9%. Comment! [Consumer]
- Thursday, April 11, 7:05 AM Limited Brand (LTD) Mar. same-store sales:+3%. Total Sales +6% to 894.8M. (PR) Comment! [Consumer]
- Wednesday, April 3, 11:04 AM Will the recent bout of cold weather in the U.S. amount to a hill of beans to U.S. apparel retailers? Though the late start to the spring selling season is sure to give under-performing companies a handy excuse, analysts note that players with strong online channels and growth potential from overseas operations could ride out the bumpy quarter just fine. Gap (GPS +1.7%), Urban Outfitters (URBN -0.6%), Limited Brands (LTD +0.3%), and VF Corp (VFC +0.5%) come to mind. Comment! [Consumer, Quick Ideas]
- Tuesday, April 2, 12:19 PM Barclays initiates coverage on a number of major retailers, lining up Limited Brands (LTD +2.1%), American Eagle Outfitters (AEO +2.9%), and Gap (GPS +1.5%) with Overweight ratings. The investment firm is less sure about Fossil (FOSL +0.8%), Finish Line (FINL +1.1%), and Aeropostale (ARO +0.1%) - all rated as Equal Weight - while Abercrombie & Fitch (ANF -0.2%) looks unappealing and is tagged at Underweight. Comment! [Consumer]
- Tuesday, March 26, 11:56 AM A weaker-than-anticipated reading on national chain store sales for the first three weeks of the month is enough to rattle the shares of a number of mall-based retailers. Though retail execs are pointing to the weather, trend-watchers are seeing a different story (chart). Decliners: ZUMZ -3.5%, AEO -2.5%, GPS -2.8%, LTD -1.5%, CHS -2.8%, ANN -2.3%, FRAN -2.5%. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Monday, March 18, 10:17 AM Hennes & Mauritz (HMRZF.PK, HNNMY.PK) will increase its presence in the U.S. and launch an e-commerce channel, according to Women's Wear Daily. Analysts think the Swedish company's fresh brands could strike a chord with fashion-conscious women shoppers. Watching H&M: ANN, CWTR, CHS, WTSL, CACH, LTD, BODY, ASNA, NWY, CBK. Comment!

- Friday, March 15, 7:05 PM Morgan Stanley selects 20 stocks for the long term, based on "competitive advantages, business model, pricing power, cost efficiency and growth": AMZN, AMT, BLK, CPN, CP, CVX, COST, EL, GILD, HON, JPM, LTD, MON, NWSA, PM, RPM, SBUX, SYMC, TMO, WMB. 13 Comments [Quick Ideas]
- Thursday, March 7, 7:49 AM More on Limited Brands (LTD) February sales: Victoria's Secret and La Senza saw comparable store sales rise 5% during the month, while Limited Brands was up 3% and Bath & Body Works came in with flat growth. Total store count dropped by a single store in Canada and now stands at 2,875. Comment! [Consumer]
- Thursday, March 7, 7:03 AM Limited Brand (LTD) Feb. same-store sales:+3% vs. consensus of +2.6%. Total sales of $712.7M. (PR) Comment! [Consumer]
