[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've been boycotting Sinclair and channel 7 for years: the presenters look like stepford wives and there is always a tone of fear or urgency to their reporting, or with the scrolling news on screen. Prefer other local channels where newscasters look and behave like actual real people.[/quote] So how has that worked out for you? Are they out of business yet?[/quote] It's worked out great because I found out I really like Wusa9. I'm also saving a lot of money by not shopping at Target. Win win. [/quote] We just shopped at Target this afternoon. It's weird that some of you seem to think you destroyed them and made them go broke. [/quote] +1 The delusions of grandeur among this crowd are epic. [/quote] Target Revenue by 1./4 2nd 1/4 2024 - $25M 3rd 1/4 2024 - $25M 4th 1/4 2024 - $30M 1st 1/4 2025 - $24M 2nd 1/4 2025 - $25M I guess you showed them…..[/quote] And yet they fired the CEO and Fortune says… “Target hasn’t gotten its mojo back after boycotts and backlash over retracted DEI efforts. Foot traffic and revenue are still down.” “For the second quarter of 2025, Placer.ai reports that foot traffic at Target is down 3.1% YoY. That means that if the correlation between its foot traffic reporting and Target’s total revenues reporting in the previous five quarters is consistent, [b]Target will report a total revenue decline compared to the second quarter of 2024 of between 1.8% and 4.4%.[/b] Retail Brew asked Target to comment on Placer.ai’s estimate that its foot traffic is down 3.1% for Q2, and whether it will report YoY revenue declines close to that. Target did not respond.” https://fortune.com/2025/08/19/target-hasnt-gotten-its-mojo-back-after-boycotts-and-backlash-over-retracted-dei-efforts-foot-traffic-and-revenue-are-still-down/ [/quote] Based on the actual numbers, the Fortune article is wrong. Those quarters are already reported and there is no decline. [/quote] I keep seeing you post this and someone needs to inform you about how $10 in 2025 is less value than $10 in 2022 due to inflation. Read a book and learn some basic business concepts before showing everyone how foolish you are. This is some truly basic stuff. [/quote] What does 2022 have to do with it? These are 1st quarter 2025 and 2nd quarter 2025. Revenue stayed the same, this means people bought the same dollar amount of stuff during those times. Boycotts have nothing to do with expenses, rents, salaries, etc. If people stopped buying stuff there, top line revenue would go down. It didn’t. [/quote]
