Call it J.C Penneys private flash crash.
The stock today plunged 19.7% to close at $26.57. Thats even worse than Black Monday 1987. On that day, the stock lost a hair less, 19.2%.
Its unclear if this is the stocks worst day ever. (Perhaps it suffered an even worse day during the 1930s.) However, it is clear that this is the worst single-day performance in the past 40 years. Thats as far back as our FactSet data goes.*

Sigh.
“...doesn’t mean that the public has to like it. “
Or give our money to those companies that do push it.
Seriously, I had a fun time in the Seventies, but there were three things that sucked immaculate about the Seventies:
1. The Clothes
2. The Hair
3. The Cars.
Other than those things, it was fun!
My thoughts are the same as yours.
Way to blow it in the ‘86 World Series,Buckner! :)
Same here.
Here is the script:
You’ll often find Wendi, her partner Maggie, and their daughters elbow deep in clay, paint, and mosaics. “Even as babies, the girls toddled around in diapers, covered in paint,” said Wendi. They come from a long line of artists, which includes Grandma Carolyn. Visiting her art studio in Granbury, Texas, is a favorite outing. And like any Grandma, this one loves to bake — pottery, that is.
Wendi with her Mom Carolyn, daughters Raven and Clover, and partner Maggie.
We now dub thee, “J.C. Pansy.”
They used to make pretty decent clothes for men at the moderate price range, now, the buttons fall off and the shoulder seams come apart after a few washings. I’m done with them, even before the sodomy sell-out.
I’ve got a late ‘60’s catalog, right before the cultural s-— hit the fan. The differences in styles and taste of that period compared to a few years later was utterly unbelievable.
They can take Ellen Degenerate and their lesbos and croak for all I care. I’m done with them.
Screw these sodomy-pushers. Ill never shop there again.
Lets see if they can make it on alternative-lifestyle business.
Couldn’t have said it better.
Good. They deserve it. However, absolutely NOT Ellen’s fault. Their ridiculous pricing did them in. NOT ELLEN’S FAULT. NOT ELLEN’S FAULT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I cancel mine six months ago I reading they going for this in some ET magazine I recently need new towels I been going to Annas linens here in SO CAL
You are in the “very small” minority.
Once they realize their stupid pricing is keeping shoppers away -— and change it — all will be forgiven.
Well he did used to work as vice president of merchandising for Target and worked at Mervyns.
There aren’t enough queers in the world to keep them out of bankruptcy!!!!
They are NOT going to change it. The old way was leading to bankruptcy. This is it. If it doesn’t work they won’t “go back” they will just go away.
(I’m referring to the pricing model not the gay stuff)
Just talked to a customer service operator about how my family will no longer be shopping at JC Penny due to the 2 homosexual moms featured in the catalog. I said that it must be more than me that is upset as their stock is diving.
Woman was very nice and said Were in the same boat, I agree with you.
Wow... interesting. Thanks for sharing that info, icwhatudo.
