More retail names are slated to report earnings
Even though Wall Street is heading toward a holiday-shortened week, there's still plenty for investors to look forward to. Monday features a plethora of data, including the Chicago Fed national activity data, while Tuesday follows up with the Case-Shiller national price index. Wednesday is where the bulk of this week's data is, including employment data, as well as durable goods orders, new home sales, and plenty of consumer data.
While earnings season is coming to an end, a number of retail names are still ready to release their reports, including Best Buy (BBY), Dick's Sporting Goods (DKS), Dollar Tree (DLTR), Gap (GPS), and Urban Outfitters (URB).
