Over three quarters of TJX's sales are derived from the United States, primarily via the T.J. Maxx, Marshalls, and HomeGoods banners.

TJX Companies Inc

Amidst a week of market volatility, heightened by a weak Treasury auction and a jump in long-term yields, some of America&#8217;s largest retailers posted first-quarter profits that indicate the consumer machine might be slowing. The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">retail proxy ETF market</a>, so hotly followed, is getting shaken. This is how leading funds are positioned in response to the prevailing mood:
VanEck Retail ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RTH#NASDAQ">RTH</a>): 
Exposure: Market cap-weighted, heavily skewed towards Amazon (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), Home Depot (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HD#NYSE">HD</a>), and Walmart (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMT#NYSE">WMT</a>).
Impact: RTH could be slightly more durable, given Amazon&#8217;s ongoing e-commerce strength and Walmart&#8217;s focus on essentials. However, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45536218/walmart-responds-to-trumps-eat-the-tariff-remark-worked-to-keep-our-prices-as-low-as-possible-and-we-wont-stop" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Walmart&#8217;s tariff warning</a> introduces a risk factor to this fund.
ProShares Online Retail ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ONLN#NYSE">ONLN</a>)
Exposure: Concentrates on digital-native retailers such as Amazon and Chewy (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CHWY#NYSE">CHWY</a>).
Impact: A shift to e-commerce, accelerated by inflation fatigue and convenience demands, could support ONLN. Target and Lowe's are leaning into digital services, which may benefit ONLN's broader theme.
Amplify Online Retail ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBUY#NYSE">IBUY</a>)
Exposure: A mix of U.S. and global e-commerce platforms. Amazon, Chewy, Wayfair (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/W#NYSE">W</a>) are among its top holdings.
Impact: Legacy players&#8217; renewed emphasis on convenience, expedited delivery, and promotions can drive competition for IBUY and ONLN members—but also affirm the long-term e-retail expansion story.

What&#8217;s Happening In the Retail World?
Target (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TGT#NYSE">TGT</a>) took the cautionary lead, reducing its full-year earnings estimate to $7.00–$9.00 a share, from an earlier $8.80–$8.90. The firm <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45540759/target-stock-slips-as-q1-earnings-miss-estimates-fy2025-outlook-cut-amid-slowing-sales">fell short of the top- and bottom-line estimates </a>with sales of $23.85 billion that missed the consensus and decreased by 2.79% YoY. Management attributed the marked decline in discretionary spending and the more conservative U.S. consumer. The company stock was down 5.2% on Wednesday.
Meanwhile, Lowe's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LOW#NYSE">LOW</a>) narrowly beat earnings expectations with $2.92 per share but posted a 2.03% YOY <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45548489/jpms-take-on-lowes-mixed-q1-highlights-weather-headwinds-and-gross-margin-strength">decline in revenue</a>. The retailer maintained its full-year guidance, signaling steady, if uninspiring, confidence. Its message echoed Target's: high interest rates and economic uncertainty are reshaping consumer priorities. LOW was down 1.7% on Wednesday.
TJX Companies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TJX#NYSE">TJX</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45540766/tjx-boosts-q1-sales-with-more-shoppers-says-tariffs-wont-hurt-2026-outlook">stood firm on its perspective</a>, subject to existing tariff rates not changing. That position, though, did little to support shares, which declined 2.8% in tandem with peers. Walmart and Home Depot, in prior comments, emphasized the pricing squeeze of fresh tariffs, with Walmart cautioning for potential increases while Home Depot vowed to cover costs.
Tariffs, Yields, And The Retailer&#8217;s Dilemma
The macro backdrop is compounding retail headwinds. The 10-year Treasury yield climbed toward 4.6% and the 30-year breached 5% after a lackluster $16 billion auction in 20-year bonds, stoking fears of a higher-for-longer rate regime. With borrowing costs elevated, big-ticket purchases and home improvement projects are being shelved, a scenario confirmed by Lowe's soft revenue.
Tariffs are the other elephant in the shopping aisle. Retailers facing Chinese imports are rethinking pricing and supply chain strategies, but consumers have only so much tolerance for higher prices. Walmart&#8217;s caution is in stark contrast with Target&#8217;s vow to keep increases in check, a risk that could strain margins.
A Sector In Search Of A Spark
Retail ETFs continue to be a gauge of consumer spending and attitudes. The prevailing story—declining foot traffic, lagging discretionary sales, and economic conservatism—supports the view that funds such as XRT and RTH could be stuck in their ranges or lag unless attitudes shift or there are earnings surprises.
The bright spots? Retailers doubling down on digital tools, delivery innovation, and loyalty perks may insulate themselves from broader weakness. Investors should watch for ETF managers rebalancing exposure toward more resilient names—especially those boosting digital margins or catering to professional buyers, as Lowe's is attempting.
With warning lights flashing on the U.S. consumer horizon, retail ETFs are taking a hit. Investors would be wise to follow not only earnings, but forward guidance and how retailers are responding. In a more discerning market than ever, the right retail exposure may be the difference-maker.

Retail ETFs Rattle As Tariffs, Yields, Consumer Caution Pressure Big-Box Stocks

Telsey analyst Dana Telsey maintained an Outperform rating on TJX Companies, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TJX#NYSE">TJX</a>) with a price forecast of $145 following the company&#8217;s first-quarter results, which were reported before <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/TJX/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">the market opened today</a>.
Sales rose 5% year-over-year (Y/Y) to $13.1 billion, beating the analyst consensus estimate of $13 billion. Adjusted EPS of 92 cents beat the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45540766/tjx-boosts-q1-sales-with-more-shoppers-says-tariffs-wont-hurt-2026-outlook" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus estimate of 90 cents</a>.
TJX reaffirmed guidance for fiscal 2026 comparable sales growth of 2% – 3% and EPS of $4.34-$4.43 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/43976995" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">against a $4.49 estimate</a>.
The company expects second-quarter comparable sales growth of 2%—3% and EPS of $0.97-$1.00, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">with an estimate of $1.03</a>.
For the full-year FY26, the company expects to offset the significant and ongoing tariff-related financial pressures fully.
The analyst writes that the company delivered another strong quarterly performance, driven by strong operational execution and healthy sales, although the gross margin was slightly below expectations.
The analyst believes that the company&#8217;s consistent earnings outperformance underscores the appeal of its value-oriented model, which remains attractive to increasingly price-conscious consumers.
Moreover, the favorable environment for off-price retail continues to support TJX in meeting customer demand and maintaining strong store traffic, adds the analyst.
Going forward, Telsey anticipates that TJX to keep expanding its profitable market share, backed by stable comparable sales growth and ongoing strategic store openings.
Given the modest earnings beat and reaffirmed full-year outlook, the analyst sees no material change in the positive trajectory of the company's performance, which is an encouraging sign amid broader economic uncertainty.
Investors can gain exposure to the stock via VanEck Retail ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RTH#NASDAQ">RTH</a>) and iShares U.S. Consumer Focused ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IEDI#BATS">IEDI</a>).
Price Action: TJX shares are down 2.69% at $131.30 at the last check on Wednesday.

'TJ Maxx Operator Says It Has Flexibility to Offset Tariffs'- Bloomberg

U.S. equities trading was mixed on Wednesday, with major indices showing limited movement by midday as investors remained cautious amid renewed concerns over fiscal policy, which pressured Treasury <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/05/45540541/5-treasury-yields-are-back-and-so-are-painful-mortgage-rates">bonds and the dollar.</a>
The S&amp;P 500 hovered near 5,930, little changed on the day, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average slipped 0.7% amid weakness in blue-chip stocks. In contrast, the Nasdaq 100 advanced 0.5%, led by a 4.6% rally in Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>), which extended gains following its annual I/O developer conference.
Google unveiled a series of AI initiatives, highlighting that its Gemini assistant now boasts over 400 million monthly active users and delivers AI Overviews to more than 1.5 billion people. The company also touted Gemini 2.5 Pro's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/05/45548615/alphabet-well-positioned-for-google-search-dominance-analyst-says-can-navigate-the-shift-to-ai-search">performance leadership in industry benchmark</a>s.
Bond markets faced renewed selling pressure, with the 30-year Treasury yield surging to 5.02% — the highest in nearly two months — as traders digested the potential fiscal implications of President Donald Trump&#8216;s proposed "One Big Beautiful Bill," which economists say could further worsen the U.S. deficit outlook.
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) stole the spotlight, surging past its previous record to hit an intraday high of $109,500, buoyed by news that JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>) will allow clients to buy Bitcoin, though without offering custody services.
In commodities, oil prices eased 0.6% to $61.50 per barrel after an overnight spike triggered by unconfirmed reports of an Israeli strike on Iranian nuclear facilities. Gold rose 0.5% to $3,310 per ounce, marking its highest level since May 11.

TJX Boosts Q1 Sales With More Shoppers, Says Tariffs Won't Hurt 2026 Outlook

Editor's Note: This article has been updated to reflect the accurate yields for the 2-year and 10-year Treasury bonds.
U.S. stock futures dipped on Wednesday after ending lower on Tuesday. Futures of major benchmark indices were trading lower in premarket.
The S&amp;P 500 index snapped its six-day winning streak on Tuesday, which was followed by the U.S.-China 90-day tariff truce.
Donald Trump&#8216;s &#8216;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/05/45536595/big-beautiful-bill-will-explode-the-deficit-and-make-the-rich-richer-congressional-budget-office-estimates-4-income-fall-for-lowest-decile-of-americans-by-2033">One Big, Beautiful Bill</a>&#8216; was the center of discussion among experts as the Congressional Budget Office released its estimates for the distributional effects of the Act.
It estimated a 4% drop in the household incomes of the lower decile of Americans by 2033 and a 2% rise in the income of the highest decile.
Meanwhile, the 10-year Treasury bond yielded 4.53% and the two-year bond was at 3.9%. The CME Group's FedWatch <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">tool</a>&#8216;s projections show markets pricing a 94.6% likelihood of the Federal Reserve keeping the current interest rates unchanged in its June meeting.

Insights From Analysts:
Senior economist at WisdomTree, Jeremy Siegel, said that he was &#8220;clear-eyed&#8221; about the tariff impact.
&#8220;These tariffs aren't good for the market. Stocks would be higher without them, but the market's current pricing suggests it can absorb the expected hit at current rates.&#8221;
While there was criticism around the One Big, Beautiful Bill on proposed tax cuts, Siegel said, &#8220;While tariffs remain a headwind, the tax cut and a potential easing of tensions in the Middle East could propel equities closer to all-time highs.&#8221;
Meanwhile, quoting the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/05/45536595/big-beautiful-bill-will-explode-the-deficit-and-make-the-rich-richer-congressional-budget-office">CBO estimates</a>, Craig Shapiro of the Bear Traps Report, said, the new Bill will &#8220;explode the deficit while enriching the highest decile of Americans at the expense of the lowest decile.&#8221; 
&#8220;Another opportunity squandered and further proof that the Republican Party continues to cater to the wealthiest Americans time and time again,&#8221; he added.

Economist Peter Schiff was also not enamoured by the Bill as he stated that the tax cuts just boost GDP at the "expense of larger budget and trade deficits and higher inflation, and long-term interest rates."

US Stocks Likely To Open Lower, Expert Says 'Tariffs Remain A Headwind,' But 'Tax Cut' And 'Easing Of Tensions' In Middle East 'Could Propel Equities Closer To All-Time Highs' (CORRECTED)

The Company's second quarter and full year Fiscal 2026 guidance below assumes that the current level of tariffs on imports into the U.S. from China and other countries as of May 21, 2025 will stay in place for the remainder of the year. The Company's full year Fiscal 2026 guidance assumes that it can offset the significant incremental pressure it has experienced and continues to expect from tariffs.&nbsp;

TJX Q2 Outlook Assumes Current Level Of Tariffs On Imports To US From China And Other Countries As Of May 21, 2025 Will Stay For Remainder Of The Year

WIIM

TJX Companies shares are trading lower after the company issued soft Q2 guidance.

Second Quarter and Full Year Fiscal 2026 Outlook
The Company's second quarter and full year Fiscal 2026 guidance below assumes that the current level of tariffs on imports into the U.S. from China and other countries as of May 21, 2025 will stay in place for the remainder of the year. The Company's full year Fiscal 2026 guidance assumes that it can offset the significant incremental pressure it has experienced and continues to expect from tariffs.
For the second quarter of Fiscal 2026, the Company expects consolidated comparable sales to be up 2% to 3%. The Company is planning second quarter Fiscal 2026 pretax profit margin to be in the range of 10.4% to 10.5%, down 0.4 to 0.5 percentage points versus the prior year's 10.9%. The Company is planning second quarter Fiscal 2026 diluted earnings per share to be in the range of $.97 to $1.00, which would represent a 1% to 4% increase versus the prior year's $.96. The Company's second quarter Fiscal 2026 outlook includes an incremental negative impact from tariff costs on the merchandise it was committed to at the time additional tariffs were announced in March and April of 2025.
For the full year Fiscal 2026, the Company continues to expect consolidated comparable sales to be up 2% to 3%. The Company continues to plan full year Fiscal 2026 pretax profit margin to be in the range of 11.3% to 11.4%, down 0.1 to 0.2 percentage points versus the prior year's 11.5%. The Company continues to expect full year Fiscal 2026 diluted earnings per share to be in the range of $4.34 to $4.43, which would represent a 2% to 4% increase over the prior year's $4.26. For the full year Fiscal 2026, the Company is maintaining its assumption that unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates and transactional foreign exchange would have an approximately 0.2 percentage point negative impact to pretax profit margin and an approximately 3% negative impact to earnings per share growth.

About 10% of sales are from Canada and 12% from Europe and Australia.

Forecasting The Future: 10 Analyst Projections For TJX Companies

TJX Companies Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TJX#NYSE">TJX</a>) is gearing up to report its first-quarter results on Wednesday, May 21.
The reduction in tariff rates on China has come as a "huge relief," given the company's significant vendor exposure to the country, according to TD Cowen.
The TJX Companies Analyst: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/5846f34dee7bf6000154d138/john-kernan">Analyst John Kernan</a> reiterated a Buy rating, while raising the price target from $140 to $142.
The TJX Companies Thesis: The company could report same-store sales growth of 4%, accelerating from last year's 3% and above the guidance range of 2% to 3%, Kernan said in the note.
Check out <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings">other analyst stock ratings</a>.
TJX Companies could deliver gross margin expansion of 5 basis points (bps) year-on-year, much better than the guidance of a contraction of 10 bps-20 bps, the analyst stated. He expects the company to report earnings of 93 cents per share, above consensus of 91 cents per share.
The company has some insulation from macro uncertainties due to its "wide demographics, spread of merchandise offered, and strong U.S. gross margin,&#8221; Kernan said. "Our field work suggests the buying environment post Liberation Day is improving, and management&#8217;s confidence in inventory availability is rising," he further wrote.
TJX Price Action: Shares of TJX Companies had declined by 0.38% to $134.60 at the time of publication on Tuesday.
