Headlines ugly:
-

-
Sees FY adjusted EPS $3.25 to $3.65, saw $3.65 to $3.90, estimate $3.73 (range $3.51 to $3.85) (Bloomberg data)
-
1Q total comparable sales -3.5%, estimate -0.1% (Consensus Metrix, average of 16 estimates)
-

“While we expected softer trends from the fourth quarter to continue into the first quarter, we experienced a further deceleration. We had executional misses with our customers, and we’re committed to better serving them. This is well within our control to turn around,” said co-president Erik Nordstrom.
The result was not pretty…
The retailpocalypse is far from over… and we were told the consumer was flush?
