Target stock is down but it is hard to tell. There have been some mismanaged Target stores in my general area that have closed, but there are also many that seem to be run well and are always full of people. You can compare it to Walmart but I don’t think it is a 1:1 comparison since most Walmart locations are also full blown grocery stores and they typically have more locations in suburb/exurb/rural areas that have fewer shopping options.
My local Target has a serious Kmart-at-the-bitter-end vibe going. Lots of empty shelves, stuff sloppily displayed, sullen and unhelpful workers etc. etc. Everything in the grocery section is way more expensive than it is at local grocery stores. I just don’t get why anybody shops there. I only go there because I’m a school bus driver and a good chunk of the tips I get from parents are in the form of Target gift cards. But all I can find worth buying is cheap bicycle gear.
