This company has not done all that well. Amazon has really eaten into their profits. He does not see many levers forward. He avoids general department stores.

TOP PICK

Kohl's Corp. engages in the operation of family-oriented department stores. Its business line includes apparel, footwear, and accessories for women, men, and children, home products, beauty products, and accessories. The stores generally carry a consistent merchandise assortment with some differences attributable to regional preferences. The company was founded in 1962 and is headquartered in Menomonee Falls, WI. Social media mentions are up 900% in the past 24h.

DON'T BUY

Is -36%. Because they're brick-and-mortar, their viability is in question.

BUY

It's rebounding today after an earnings drop. Expectations were too great after investors saw good numbers from Abercrombie and Foot Looker and Best Buy. She's opkay with Kohl's, will hold and give it two more quarters. Regular sales were up 2.4%, though clearance sales reduced overall sales 6%, but inventories fell 13%. Good management here. They will maintain the dividend while reducing debt.

COMMENT

It reports Thursday. Its rebrand with Sephora could start to click with this quarter.

COMMENT

Is flat this year. Reports this week. Department stores are cyclically challenged, but the new CEO might turn this around.

BUY

Happy to own it. The new CEO has a great track record rebuilding a prior company. Pays a 10% dividend and is trading dirt cheap.

BUY

This company has overly discounted how horrible the consumer will be. The 8.7% dividend is fine. But you should no more than 2.5% in your portfolio.

BUY

Down over 40% in the past year. Pays a 7.7% dividend. Expects it to produce $3 of earnings. Is priced now as if the consumer will lie down and down--not the case.

BUY

Down 40% this year, pays an 8% dividend, $4 earnings.

SELL ON STRENGTH

Doesn't trust it. They didn't have a good quarter--they have too much inventory and wasn't thrilled that they said they would stand by the dividend. Sell if this rises above $30.

WAIT

It reports Thursday. See what they say. This stock has disappointed often and could slip into irrelevance.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

If it opens below $24 tomorrow morning due to the Walmart earnings report, buy a little.

SELL

Wipe your hands clean of this stock, though retailers, especially department stores, have all slumped. Today, Kohl's abandoned deal talks.

SELL

They abandoned deal stocks today. Shares tanked nearly 20%. The company has been lying about its plan in its filings and she is furious. The company lowered its own guidance, yet was saying in its call that things were going well. That was BS. The company has wasted so much shareholder value in five months since they received that offer. They have underperformed every retailer. Management has been incompetent and lying to shareholders, no doubt. She wouldn't be surprised if an activist came aboard. They are terrible.
