Walmart, Target, And BJ's: Earnings Expectations And Retail Trends Redefining Superstore Shopping
Portfolio Pulse from AJ Fabino
Major retail players including Walmart Inc (WMT), Target Corp (TGT), and BJ’s Wholesale Club Holdings Inc (BJ) are set to release their earnings this week. Analysts expect Target to issue earnings of $1.43 per share, on revenues of $25.3 billion, Walmart to issue earnings of $1.69 per share, on revenues of $159.93 billion, and BJ’s Wholesale to issue earnings of 89 cents per share, on revenues of $5.155 billion. The superstores’ resilience was tested this year as some saw year-over-year visitation dips. However, the positive trend in visits for Walmart points to a market that remains accommodating to various retail business models.
