TGT in five paragraphs: what it makes and sells, where it sits in the Closelook stack, who it is priced against, why we track it, what we watch. Research diary, not advice.

What it does

Why Closelook tracks it
Target holds a seat in the S&P 500 and has appeared twice in the diary's Midday 10 edition. It does not currently carry a Closelook score.
