We have already seen earnings come in as a disappointment from Lowe’s Companies today. We still have quite a few retailers on deck to report earnings this week. We compiled a more detailed calendar to include Urban Outfitters Inc. (NASDAQ: URBN), The Home Depot, Inc. (NYSE: HD), Saks Incorporated (NYSE: SKS), The TJX Companies, Inc.

Dollar Tree, Inc. (NASDAQ: DLTR) reports on Thursday and we’ll hear more about any would-be buyout interest, maybe.

With shares around $60.50, its 52-week trading range is $39.16 to $61.80 and that high was hit on Friday.

With shares around $26.50, its 52-week trading range is $17.70 to $27.69. GameStop hit a new 52-week high just on Friday.
Sears Holdings Corporation (NASDAQ: SHLD) reports on Thursday and we think the bar has already been set very low. It will be hard to use Wal-Mart and Target for a comparison since the problems at Sears are almost endless. Thomson Reuters has estimates of -$1.12 EPS and next quarter estimates are -$0.54 EPS. With shares around $76.00, its 52-week trading range is $59.21 to $117.04.
As with all earnings reports, these estimates and even these dates may have already changed.
