Well-run company that generates a lot of free cash flow. As Amazon pressures brick-and-mortar, these stores will have to move their merchandise, which is where TKX comes in, selling their excess merchandise. Also, TJX aggressively buys back stock.

An interesting one. In 2008, TJX was stellar, and this stock hung in the best after the crash. Exceptionally well-managed with a great buying team. Problem is, you don't need to own this now. Recent numbers missed. Amazon is a better buy.

The parent of Winners stores. They have a number of brands in Europe, Canada and the US. Have a really fantastic advantage in pricing. When the market goes down, people stop spending, so they mark down the price a little bit and keep the volume going. When things get better, they can raise that pricing. Dividend yield of 1.12%.
