		<description><![CDATA[February 2012 proved another strong month for Ross Stores Inc. (ROST), the largest off-price apparel and home fashion chain in U.S., with sales and same store sales numbers showing substantial improvement and coming out above expectations. Ross Stores’ same-store sales for four weeks ended February 25, 2012 rose 9%, above the February 2011 same-store sales. Net sales for the period marked an increase of 14% to $677 million from $595 million reported in the four weeks ended February 26, 2011. Robust February results, which marked a solid start to fiscal 2012, were driven mainly by favorable weather conditions in a majority of the markets where the company operates. This, in turn, resulted in improved broad-based merchandise and geographic trends. Looking ahead into the first quarter of 2012, the company expects ]]></description>

February 2012 sales Net sales for the four-week period ended February 25, 2012 increased 6% to $874 million compared with net sales of $821 million in the prior-year period.

Last January, Gap registered a decline of 4% in same-store sales for the four-week period ended January 28, 2012, with sales declining across the board.

		<description><![CDATA[One of the most amazing aspects of this economic recovery has been the resiliency of the American consumer. Given a banking/housing/credit crisis that nearly melted down the economy, you would have thought that high-end luxury retailers like Tiffany &#38; Co. (TIF) and Coach (COH) and upper-tier department stores like Nordstrom (JWN) and Macy&#8217;s (M) would have suffered the most. To the contrary, these were terrific investments as their earnings continued to surprise quarter after quarter. The consumer was not hunkering down in Wal-Mart (WMT) or Kohl&#8217;s (KSS). She was out shopping like nobody&#8217;s business. More on that surprising trend of the past two years in a moment. Now Comes the Recession? Well, the high-end may still do well, but it finally happened. Fears of a double-dip drove both shoppers and ]]></description>

Gap is one of the leading players in the highly fragmented specialty retail sector offering a diverse range of clothing, accessories and personal care products for men, women, children and babies. Its flagship brands include Gap, Banana Republic, Old Navy, Piperlime and Athleta. Gap’s globally recognized brands complement one another, enabling it to leverage its position in the sector. Moreover, in a drive to boost international operations, Gap consolidated its foreign business under one division from London. Lackluster sales in North America compelled the company to explore markets overseas. In order to counter the domestic market saturation, Gap is aiming to generate 30% of total sales from its overseas operations and online business by 2013. To achieve this end, Gap has ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We are currently downgrading our long-term recommendation on Citi Trends Inc. (CTRN) to Underperform from Neutral based on the company&#8217;s disappointing second-quarter 2011 results. Citi Trends&#8217; falling comparable store sales, coupled with rising input costs and operating expenses, battered the second-quarter 2011 results. The company witnessed a quarterly loss of 69 cents per share that broadened 17 folds from the prior-period loss of 4 cents. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the quarter was a loss of 64 cents per share. Moreover, due to uncertainty hovering around sales, the company rolled back its earnings guidance range of $1.25 to $1.35 per share for fiscal 2011. The company decided not to provide any guidelines unless it finds any near-term catalysts to drive sales. Moreover, Citi Trends also reduced its projection of new ]]></description>

This was the first time since early July that the Dow and the S&#38;P 500 registered two consecutive days of gains. However, the magnitude of losses that the benchmarks had suffered could not be entirely washed out and all the benchmarks were down less than 2% for the week. On Friday, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) recorded its fifth-straight day of triple-digit movement for the first time since January last year. The Dow was up 125 points or 1.1% to close the day at 11,269.02. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) gained 0.5% and settled at 1,178.81.
