(ISIN US9311421039/ WKN 860853) gab am Donnerstag bekannt, dass ihre vergleichbaren Umsätze im November - wie bereits am Samstag in Aussicht gestellt - um 4,3 Prozent gestiegen sind. Zuvor war der US-Einzelhändler von einem Wachstum von 3 bis 5 Prozent ausgegangen. Analysten hatten zuletzt ein Plus von 3,9 Prozent erwartet. Die gesamten Erlöse erhöhten sich in den vier Wochen zum 25. November um 9,4 Prozent auf 25,77 Mrd. Dollar. Im Vorjahresmonat waren die vergleichbaren Umsätze (Same-Store Sales) um lediglich 0,7 Prozent gestiegen, was mit einer schwachen Kundenfrequentierung als Folge zögerlicher Preissenkungen zusammenhing. http://www.wallstreet-online.de/diskussion/1023786-1-10/wal-... |
