Many big retailers are discounting heavily and earlier this holiday season to clear excess stock from their shelves and warehouses. But others, with no substantive overhang of inventory, are also offering bigger sales than usual to satisfy shoppers who have come to expect them. “This is more of a reaction to what’s happening in this peak holiday-sales period.”Not all companies are being pulled into the discounting vortex. “We think that’s a good consumer experience.”Catbird, a Brooklyn-based jewelry company, is offering customers up to 20% off during the holidays, the biggest discount of its 18-year history. “No business owner who’s being honest is going to tell you they’re happy to have sales,” she said.

Investors should utilize the sharp pullback in Yeti 's stock to buy into a company with "solid fundamentals" at a steep discount, according to Canaccord Genuity. Analyst Brian McNamara initiated coverage of the cooler and drinkware maker with a buy rating in a note to clients Wednesday, saying the stock is as "bear-proof as its coolers" and calling the company an "iconic global lifestyle brand with staying power." Shares of Yeti have underperformed since the start of the year, falling 48% compared with a roughly 18% drawback in the S & P 500 . The firm's $58 price target suggests shares could rebound about 35% from Wednesday's close. "Despite its first 'miss & cut' as a public company with Q2 results and a potential risk that an incoming CFO could lower the bar, we believe market expectations are overly conservative," McNamara wrote.
