Both face challenges from competition and shifting consumer tastes but offer steady income and potential long-term upside.

Retail Earnings Diverge as Analysts Warn of Worsening Trends

Retail Earnings Diverge as Analysts Warn of Worsening Trends

Wall Street is anticipating a divergence in retail earnings this week as the US consumer remains selective with their spending. Service-based retail stocks have seen an increase due to higher spending on travel, while automobile and parts stocks have declined. Companies in the consumer staples sector have fared better than those in the discretionary sector. Walmart has outperformed the S&P 500, benefiting from consumers trading down amid inflation, while Target has seen shares fall due to its higher dependence on discretionary spending. Home Depot, Target, and Walmart are among the retailers set to release earnings this week. Analysts have mixed views on the sector, with some expecting a slowdown driven by student loan repayments, declining excess savings, and higher borrowing costs.
