Target Corporation (TGT) is undergoing a transition with Michael Fiddelke as the new CEO. It's looking to gain a larger share of the
Discretionary Dollar and expand its position as a
trend-forward destination by launching new wellness based products. It's undergoing heightened activist pressure due to declining sales leading to
corporate layoffs, lower stock prices and a mixed Wall Street opinion. As a
strong buy for passive income, the company has a high institutional ownership of 84% to 86%. Target opened a new concept store, 'Target SoHo', in New York, presenting a unique, design-forward shoppable experience. The company also plans to launch an AI-powered, curated shopping experience on
ChatGPT. Despite the struggle, investment in the retailer is argued to be a good decision, given that it is potentially undervalued at 42%. However, a decline in regular store trips and a potential backlash to DEI rollback led to Target cutting its sales outlook. Additionally, it has launched new AI-powered features for easier holiday shopping and plans to feature 20,000 new items for the 2025 holiday season.
