RETAIL IS A CRAZY MAN’S PARADISE

So I’m looking over the retail lanscape, trying to find rhyme or reason. I went into this with a bearish bias, seeing JWN and FOSL getting smoked into pig pits this morning. However, I left this study, fully convinced, this is a world fit for a lunatic and only one company is winning.

Here is the YTD performance of many of the top retailers.

Try to find a trend to this randomness. JWN was winning before today’s poleaxing. Macy’s was a great stock last year. Oh, and JCP is up 35% this year. I didn’t bother putting them on the list, however. No room.

As for the sole winner. AMZN is up 114% this year.
