TJX Companies

TJX Companies is the leading off-price retailer of apparel, accessories, and home merchandise in the United States. The firm leverages its more than 21,000 global vendor relationships to procure and sell brand-name merchandise at prices 20%-60% cheaper than conventional retail channels. TJX opportunistically purchases excess inventory that stems from manufacturing overruns and retail closeout sales. The off-price retailer disperses its vast and disparate merchandise across its 5,000 global stores, creating a treasure-hunt shopping experience for consumers. Over three quarters of TJX's sales are derived from the United States, primarily via the T.J. Maxx, Marshalls, and HomeGoods banners. About 10% of sales are from Canada and 12% from Europe and Australia.

Nvidia To Rally More Than 50%? Here Are 10 Top Analyst Forecasts For Thursday

Goldman Sachs analyst Brooke Roach reiterated the Buy rating on TJX Companies, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TJX#NYSE">TJX</a>) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/TJX/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">with a price forecast of $137.</a>
Yesterday, the company reported third-quarter earnings per share of $1.14 (+11%), <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42088621/tjx-companies-beats-q3-earnings-stock-dips-on-dim-q4-outlook" rel="noreferrer noopener">beating the street view of $1.09</a>. Quarterly sales of $14.06 billion (+6%) beat the analyst consensus estimate of $13.95 billion.
TJX Companies reported a 3% increase in consolidated comparable store sales at the high end of the company&#8217;s plan, driven entirely by higher customer transactions.
Roach remains optimistic after the quarter, maintaining a &#8220;constructive view.&#8221;
The analyst is encouraged by TJX&#8217;s continued momentum in transaction-driven comparable sales across its various brands, as well as its strong execution in both new and existing categories.
Additionally, there is a promising long-term growth potential for TJX on a global scale.

The analyst sees further opportunities for the company to gain market share and expand margins, benefiting from stronger vendor relationships and improved merchandise margins. This positions TJX well to navigate short-term industry challenges, such as tariffs and freight costs, Roach adds.
The analyst noted that while there have been choppy trends across various sub-sectors of consumer discretionary during the third-quarter earnings season, Roach is particularly encouraged by TJX&#8217;s strong messaging regarding the home sector and early fourth-quarter growth momentum.
However, the analyst also pointed out that unseasonable weather and the impacts of hurricanes are expected to remain key topics as companies continue reporting quarterly results, with a particular focus on early holiday selling trends for off-price and department store competitors.
Price Action: TJX shares are trading lower by 0.29% to $119.47 at last check Thursday.

Investor sentiment remained subdued on Wednesday as escalating geopolitical tensions weighed on risk assets ahead of the week&#8217;s most anticipated event: Nvidia Corp.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) third-quarter earnings report, set to be <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/11/42093025/will-nvidia-deliver-a-blowout-beat-in-q3-poll-says-maybe-not-but-over-half-see-stock-clearing-150">released after market close.</a>
The market mood deteriorated further after multiple outlets confirmed Ukraine&#8217;s deployment of U.K.-made Storm Shadow missiles into Russian territory, a day after launching U.S.-supplied ATACMS missiles.
The CBOE Volatility Index (VIX), widely regarded as a barometer of market anxiety, spiked over 9%, underscoring rising apprehension among investors. 
Major U.S. indices were in the red, with the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 leading losses as technology stocks bore the brunt of the sell-off.
The U.S. dollar resumed its upward trajectory, with the Invesco DB USD Index Bullish Fund ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UUP#NYSE">UUP</a>), a proxy for the greenback&#8217;s strength, climbing 0.7%. Safe-haven demand also bolstered gold, which advanced 0.7%, reflecting investors&#8217; flight to safety.
Meanwhile, natural gas emerged as the standout performer among commodities, surging over 6% on the day.
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) defied the risk-off sentiment, climbing over 2% to hit a fresh intraday all-time high of $94,989. This propelled its year-to-date gains to an astonishing 123%.

Insights From Analysts:
Wedbush's Dan Ives expressed upbeat sentiment about Nvidia's earnings, saying that the AI giant could deliver earnings beat and raise guidance as well.
"We expect a drop the mic performance from Nvidia tomorrow night as Godfather of AI Jensen &amp; Co. are the only game in town with $1 trillion of AI Cap-Ex on the way with Nvidia&#8217;s GPUs the new oil and gold in this world."

While there is optimism among analysts about Nvidia and other AI stocks, the European Central Bank expressed caution about the possibility of an "AI bubble."
&#8220;This concentration among a few large firms raises concerns over the possibility of an AI-related asset price bubble,&#8221; the ECB said in its latest Financial Stability Review, underscoring the increasing dependence of the equity markets on select companies.
This could also be a cause of concern for equity markets beyond the U.S., noted the ECB.
"Also, in a context of deeply integrated global equity markets, it points to the risk of adverse global spillovers, should earnings expectations for these firms be disappointed."
Ryan Detrick, chief market strategist at Carson Group, on the other hand, remained optimistic about equity markets.
"Stocks historically do better in years 1 and 2 of a President who was re-elected vs a new President in office."

Most sectors on the S&amp;P 500 closed on a positive note, with energy, communication services, and consumer discretionary stocks recording the biggest gains on Monday. However, industrials stocks bucked the overall market trend, closing the session lower.
The Dow Jones closed lower by around 121 points to 43,268.94 on Tuesday. The S&amp;P 500 rose 0.40% to 5,916.98, while the Nasdaq Composite gained 1.04% to close at 18,987.47 during Tuesday's session.

What is CNN Business Fear &amp; Greed Index?
At a current reading of 50.1, the index remained in the &#8220;Neutral&#8221; zone on Tuesday, versus a prior reading of 49.9.
The Fear &amp; Greed Index is a measure of the current market sentiment. It is based on the premise that higher fear exerts pressure on stock prices, while higher greed has the opposite effect. The index is calculated based on seven equal-weighted indicators. The index ranges from 0 to 100, where 0 represents maximum fear and 100 signals maximum greediness.
