Target's new ad slogans:

"You'll meet the most interesting people in our bathrooms!"

"Come to Target with your kids -- or send them alone."

I signed and I already stopped going there over their lax payment security.

Anyway the answer is simple. The ladies’ restroom is for (biological) ladies.

The men’s restroom can suffice for men and confused persons.

The alphabet club will hate that, but they won’t be able to defend why. This is because, at its root, this really is pervy peekers trying to check out chicks.

On Friday, the shares of Target Corporation Common Stock (TGT) fell 2.52 percent in one day, according to recent reports. In addition since April 19th, the day they announced the new policy, the stock went from a share value of $84.14 to $79.27 per share. That’s a drop of 5.8 percent in 10 days.

The Family Policy institute says they estimate that to be a loss to the company of $2.5 billion dollars…

Somebody doesn't understand how the stock market works.

I have $27,000 in Target stock, dumping it to buy Apple which is cheap right niw under $100. I am mad at Target for not just building a third bathroom for uni-sex or other. Makes no sense other than just build a third toilet room for uni-sex.

As far as I go, Target is off my shopping list.

But the headline is highly deceptive.
While TGT traded down some on the day, it is still priced at nearly $80 a share. a share price that goes down a buck or two on a day’s trading... could be a sign of something yes, but it sure doesn’t constitute a crash or a disaster
.. the headline is essentially false, or at least highly misleading.

right around $80 a share...closing at $79.50 in fact.... is AT LEAST at a 10 year high range for the firm (I only have access to ten years data where I am at, but the share price was a mere fraction of that at the start of that period so clearly this is probably quite a bit MORE than a 10 year high)

(Hopefully, the company will stop letting grown men into the little girls’ rooms....how can parents even take their kids shopping anymore? This policy is not only CRAZY but it is going to cause a major drop in patronage for the company...big time!)

These people are mentally ill. They need help not special bathroom privileges. Let’s stop encouraging these people to think they are normal. They are NOT. They are sick.

This article, and the DOZENS of other conservative blogs/new site poseurs that reported the same thing, are lying to you.

WalMart -- which has refused to support or join Target's bathroom policy -- saw its stock fall by a nearly identical percentage over the past 5 days, while the overall market also fell.

PROOF below...Target is green, Walmart in red

I guess we now know where all the JC Penney staff ended up.

Targets manegement made bad decisions and will pay dearly for them.
Sports Authority stopped selling guns. A bad move for a sporting goods company and the went bankrupt due to those poor choices.
Target may well deserve the same.
Buh bye.

I signed the Target boycott. I’ll fulfill that pledge. I signed on with AFA...that is leading at least one of the petitions. They have been effective in the past in getting results from their boycotts. Those results became evident over time.

So, the idea of a stock uptick or downtick in such a short amount of time strikes me as a misguided way to approach this. In fact, following market turns could actually be a way for Target to combat this by loudly heralding any market upswing.

However, a million petitioners represents far more people than just those who signed. The long term results of a huge number of buyers shunning Target is what will affect them.

I’ve been avoiding Target anyway for other issues. This just adds to my reasons for not shopping there.

I feels sorry for the hourly workers and shareholders. Need to fire the C levels and reverse course.

Target shares have hardly “plummeted.” Believe me, I have owned stocks that have plummeted! That said, the share price is on the decline and I just sold my very modest position after seeing Target’s odious CEO on TV proudly defend his company’s “inclusive” and “welcoming” policy. He will be receiving a copy of my order confirmation with a cordial but firm note advising him of my decision and as well as our decision as a family of six not to patronize his loony bin stores.
