Ponderable

I don't believe the world's most unknown "boycott" has had any effect on Target's share price. But you just keep on buying at Kohl's if you want to. Nobody cares; least of all the shareholders at Target. Because chances are, they also have shares at Kohl's.
Target’s Shares Pummeled on Poor Holiday Results

Target (tgt, +1.51%) has joined the chorus of retailers reeling from a bad holiday season.

The discount retailer on Wednesday lowered its profit forecast for the year after reporting comparable sales fell 1.3% in November and December, as big gains in its online business were dwarfed by stiff price competition and growing difficulty in getting shoppers into stores.

Target shares were down 4% in premarket trading to $68, continuing a long slide since April when they hit a 52-week high.

The hundreds of millions of dollars Target has been pouring into its e-commerce to help it self-cannibalize its sales rather than lose business to Amazon.com (amzn, +0.36%) and a resurgent Walmart.com (wmt, +1.46%) among others took a big toll on its bottom line.

"The costs associated with the accelerated mix shift between our stores and digital channels and a highly promotional competitive environment had a negative impact on our fourth quarter margins and earnings per share,” Target CEO Brian Cornell said in a statement.

Over the holiday season, online sales rose 30%, a re-acceleration in Target's digital business helped by its greater use of stores to ship orders and serve as pick up spots. But it's also clear that Target's success online came at the expense of what Cornell called "disappointing traffic and sales trends in our stores." Target only gets about 5% of its revenues digitally.

Yes, the target tranny policy problem started in April.

Oh, Sheriff Joe. All your article says is that Target "has joined a chorus of retailers reeling from a bad holiday season." It does not say anything about your unknown boycott. It doesn't even mention the word boycott. You got nothing to prove that your so-called boycott caused even one penny of share loss to Target.

Put down the bottle. Open the curtains. Air out your room. Take a shower for God's sake! Admit that you are powerless over politics and that your life has become unmanageable.

So volatile Danny.

Another one bites the dust.

Kellogg’s is shutting down 39 distribution centers across the country, the embattled cereal giant announced this week.
“While this is the right move for the company to achieve our long-term objectives, it was a difficult decision because of its impact on employees,” company spokesperson Kris Charles said, according to CNYCentral.



The Michigan-based company did not specify how many jobs would be lost during its year-long layoff plan, part of an initiative to shift toward a “highly efficient warehouse model.” Though as many as 1,100 full-time workers could be impacted, given Kellogg’s estimation that an average distribution center employs 30 full-time workers.

Kellogg’s stock saw a decline and its brand perception online took a deep negative nosedive last year following the cereal maker’s politically-driven attack on Breitbart News and its 45 million monthly readers. The company complied with demands from obscure left-wing advocacy groups, who pushed a social media campaign to coerce companies away from advertising on Breitbart.

yawn. Sheriff Joe, I notice you provide no link to the article. Could the article be biased about how much influence Breitbart supposedly has on Kelloggs? Where did the article come from? Oh .... well what do you know? It came from Breitbart itself!

Not quite as hilarious as Nov 8th, my friend.

Thank you, I needed a new editor, E is always shitting all over himself.
 
Mental shortcuts that you find revealing......are you a trained psychologist?
Your definitely a judgmental pud. "You might want to give that some thought".
Someone who isn't politically correct enough for your liking, gets labeled some way...be it racist, homophobic, liar, etc.
Some of these people you label as racists are in mixed marriages, have adopted children of different nationalities, or have close friends or family members that are of different nationalities or races and or gay.
They're just not hung up on political correctness & don't care to, nor do they need to justify themselves to wankers on this forum.
Could not have said it more clearly.
Thank you
