Target uses its almost 2,000 stores to deliver 95% of its online orders. Now it’s ramping up its speed by investing $100 million in local sorting centers to keep up with Amazon and Walmart. WSJ visits Target’s first sorting center to explore its store-centric strategy. For over a year, shoppers have pulled back on buying a range of discretionary items from cargo pants to patio furniture as prices for essential purchases such as food have gone up.

Photo: Adam FalkConsumers spent less at stores, dealerships and gas stations last month, a sign the summer spending boom is cooling heading into the holiday shopping season. U.S. retail sales fell 0.1% in October from a month earlier, the Commerce Department said Wednesday. Declining retail sales, combined with slower hiring and easing inflation indicate that the economy is cooling after surprisingly strong growth much of this year.
