TJX Companies: Discount Retail Gem

The positive equity story continues with discount/off-price apparel retailer The TJX Companies (TJX), first discussed here on May 12, 2009, on $28.13, and I obviously still like the business model at this stage.

Look for a 2% to 4% fiscal 2011 same store sales increase for TJX, which will continue to perform admirably in a consolidating retail sector.

TJX, operator of the T.J. Maxx, Marshalls and HomeGoods chains, remains in the discount retail sweet spot: it's poised to gain market share in the era of the frugal consumer.

TJX: Even More Efficient After Rightsizing

TJXWant evidence concerning the strength of retailer The TJX Companies (TJX)? Consider this:

On Friday TJX announced it would cut 4,400 jobs and convert 91 A.J. Wright stores in to T.J. Maxx, Marshalls, or HomeGoods stores, while closing the remaining 71 A.J. Wright stores.

In other words, another casualty of what's likely to be a smaller retail cut of the U.S. GDP pie this decade.

The TJX Companies: A Retail Shining Star

Retailer The TJX Companies (TJX), first discussed here on May 12, 2009 on $28.13, has pulled-back after flirting with highs near $50 earlier this spring, but just view that as an opportunity to scoop-up shares of a retail sector winner, if you can tolerate moderate risk.

Look for a 2-4% fiscal 2011 same store sales increase for TJX, which will fare well in a consolidating retail sector.

Off-price family apparel and home fashion retailer TJX (operator of the T.J. Maxx, Marshalls and HomeGoods chains) remains in the discount retail sweet spot: it's poised to gain market share in the era of the 'frugal consumer.' At least for the initial stage of the U.S. economic expansion, most Americans simply will not have the disposal income to shop at mid/upscale clothing stores and retailers.

The TJX Companies: Retail Sector Winner

The stock market has pulled back slightly, which means if you can tolerate the risk, you can scoop-up a bargain or two. Retailer The TJX Companies (TJX), first discussed here on May 12, 2009 at a price of $28.23, is one.

TJX: In the Retail Sweet Spot

Will Americans ever resume shopping? Indeed they will, but not in patterns that were prevalent during the unsustainable, home equity loan-financed era. And that's a major reason The TJX Companies (TJX), which I first wrote about on May 12, 2009 at a price of $28.23, still looks attractive, according to my analysis.

Off-price family apparel and home fashion retailer TJX (operator of the T.J. Maxx, Marshalls and HomeGoods chains) remains in the discount retail sweet spot: it's poised to gain market share in the era of the 'frugal consumer.' At least for the initial stage of the U.S. economic expansion, most Americans simply will not have the disposal income to shop at mid/upscale clothing stores and retailers. Of course, the real median income picture could change for the better, but most economic models suggest the U.S. is years away from traditional, median income growth.
