In this Wednesday Market Outsiders, Namaan and Jenny Rae break down Target’s 30% stock drop after a weak Q1 earnings report.
With comparable sales down and store traffic falling, they argue Target’s deeper issues - like a shaky value proposition and no membership model - are more to blame than broad consumer weakness.
They also unpack the finalized Capital One–Discover merger, exploring how it could challenge the Visa-Mastercard duopoly and reshape the U.S. payments market by introducing more competition - and potentially better deals - for consumers and merchants alike.
