Target slips 7% after a weak holiday season forces it to slash sales forecast by more than half

fell by as much as 7% in early trading Wednesday after the retailer reported that its holiday sales were much lower than Wall Street expected. The company also lowered its guidance for sales going forward.

Target's weak holiday sales numbers come amid dismal results from similar stores, including Kohl's, JCPenney, and Macy's, and underscore an increasingly tough backdrop for retailers. The results also foreshadow more potential pain ahead — shares of Walmart, which reports holiday sales next month, traded down as much as 2.4% Wednesday.

"We also remain on track to deliver historically strong full-year results in 2019, including comparable sales growth of more than 3 percent and record-high EPS reflecting mid-teens growth compared with last year," he said.

Chip and Joanna Gaines are Selling $6 Sprigs of Fake Eucalyptus at TargetChip and Joanna Gaines are Selling $6 Sprigs of Fake Eucalyptus at TargetI was in Target yesterday on an urgent mission to buy some toy blocks to entertain my sick toddler. Nothing could get in my way. NOTHING. Except, it turned out, the new collection from Chip and Joanna Gaines’ Hearth & Hand for Target. It wasn’t the pom-pom pastel pillows or hairpin-legged everything or even the wooden sign reading, “BRUSH YOUR TEETH” that stopped me in my tracks. No, it was the most outrageous display of faux greenery that I have ever seen in my life. There were single branches of faux eucalyptus available for $5.99 a pop. On a tabletop display: a bud vase, filled with make-believe water, and two tiny faux stems of thistle, for $7.99.
