▼ + stars: | 2022-11-13 | by ( Melissa Repko | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +6 min

Investors want a clearer sense of how much excess stuff retailers have sold off — and how deep they may have to discount to keep merchandise moving. Retailers are under pressure to clear out inventory and start fresh in the next fiscal year. Walmart and Target were among the retailers that shocked investors with significant jumps in inventory levels in the first quarter, which ended April 30. Kohl's swung from having too little inventory last year to having ballooning inventory in the second quarter of this year. Excess inventory could downgrade the shopping experience this holiday season at some stores, too.

A report on housing starts and building permits data for October will come out towards the end of this week. When Home Depot reported its most recent earnings in August, it noted that customers didn’t make as many purchases as they did a year ago.

☆ Morgan Stanley's Mike Wilson flags a key risk to earnings — and names the stocks to avoid
▼ + stars: | 2022-10-17 | by ( Zavier Ong | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

Morgan Stanley believes U.S companies are facing an inventory problem — and it's a key risk to earnings. "The problem with inventory is two-fold: supply chain bottlenecks are clearing while demand, especially demand for goods, is slowing," Morgan Stanley strategists led by Michelle Weaver and Mike Wilson wrote in an Oct. 10 note. Morgan Stanley believes the inventory problem has now become a risk to earnings, with oversupply and lagging demand likely to weigh on companies' margins. However, although a broad problem for the market and for goods producing industries in particular, not all industries are impacted to the same degree, according to Morgan Stanley. The bank found that tech hardware and consumer retail companies are among the most at risk from excess inventory.

☆ Dollar Tree's stock tumbles as rival Dollar General's bet on food and groceries pays off
▼ + stars: | 2022-08-25 | by ( Robert Hum | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +4 min

Look at what's happening between Dollar General and Dollar Tree if you want proof. The reason for Dollar Tree's weaker outlook is price cuts it's taking at Family Dollar stores that will eat into margins. Dollar General said it's seeing plenty of customers visiting its stores to buy food and groceries. But the problem for Dollar Tree is that it has less exposure to the grocery business than Dollar General. Family Dollar's customers tend to have lower incomes than both Dollar Tree and Dollar General, and clearly these shoppers are feeling the strain of months of higher prices.
