Hitting their "target"! Sorry... my bad
Time for another recession stock pick of the day...
I read in the Mercury this morning that Target beat expectations. 38 cents per share ($344 million) in the second quarter, up from 30 cents last year. Have you seen those Todd Oldham commercials? He signed a deal with Target to design home furnishings for "Gen Y'ers, who like things bright and bold". The ads seem more directed at parents than anyone else, but maybe that's just me.
Market enjoys second straight weekly gains
The chart watchers want us to believe July was the bottom. But what's going to drive corporate profits up?
