Sales are up, just not as much as they guessed.
- Target Corp (NYSE:TGT - News) same-store sales rose 4.1 percent
- Costco Wholesale Corp (NasdaqGS:COST - News) and BJ’s Wholesale Club Inc (NYSE:BJ - News) reported better-than-expected sales
- Wal-Mart reported a lower-than-expected 0.4 percent rise in monthly same-store sales at U.S. stores
- Saks Inc (NYSE:SKS - News) posted a better-than-expected 10.6 percent sales rise.
- Neiman Marcus reported an 8.5 percent increase in same-store sales revenue.
But that’s all GOOD news. Surely you can’t expect CNN to report THAT?
