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

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

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.

COMMENT

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

COMMENT

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

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.

DON'T BUY

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