courtney reagan on what holiday shopping will look like this year, but first to phil lebeau who's live at the airport. so far no storms causing any c cancellations. this has to be the busiest airlines have been since the pandemic, right? >> reporter: it is, kelly. today is the seventh straight day with at least 2 million people flying in the united states that is the busiest week that the airline industry has seen since before the pandemic. and guess what the busiest day yet may come on sunday. >> phil, ticket prices are still below 2019 levels right now. so people feel like they're getting a deal but will they stay down as christmas approaches >> reporter: no, they won't stay down if you thought you were getting a deal, you really got a deal about nine months ago. they have risen steadily it's now the average domestic round trip airfare in the u.s. $300 for thanksgiving week about 11% below 2019 levels. but watch out, christmas, the average domestic fare according to hopper, $390. by the way, kelly, that's roughly on par with what we saw back in 2019. >> all right so in that sense it'

courtney reagan. pete, i'll go to you apparently you bought calls. what are you doing with it >> i'm kicking myself, mel i usually don't do this but going in just late in the day there was huge activity in the stock. i think it was january 32 1/2 they were buying those are not going to treat me well unless we get a bounce. the numbers were as bad as i've seen the earnings miss, you look at both sides, the misses are huge. and then when you look at the costs they've whiffed on everything i am not going to do well with those calls. i do have a couple of months i am not expecting that to happen because this was a terrible quarter and i'm not sure other than a short squeeze i don't see what will force the stock back up to the upside. >> a couple months, it ain't over till it's over. what are your thoughts >> i appreciate that >> we talked about gap last night, down off the highs. low hanging fruit, i think, was in the stock price if you look at the two-year stack, only up 20% versus minus 5% some of the question has been around some of the brands themsel

reagan with us now. a long day for you, court. and high prices are definitely not keeping the shoppers away, are they >> yeah, they're really not, kelly. the day isn't over but we just got new spending data in from master kard, and they said across all forms of payment, black friday sales are up 30% through 3:00 p.m. eastern time compared to last friday. in store sells, up 11% this year for the second year in a row many retailers stayed closed on thanksgiving so, they pushed the door busters back into black friday for shoppers lots of reports of younger shoppers being the predominant demographic. clothing reigned supreme with shoppers with apparel spending up 86% and shopping center operator jll reporting its locations of apparel stores are seeing the strongest store traffic. it's getting the biggest share of online checkouts, according to cashback shopping platform rakuten. but it's not just in store digital checkouts could hit $9.6 billion this black friday, while thanksgiving day's online shopping tot

courtney reagan joins us with more on how direct to consumer businesses have faired since going public inest thering quarter for them they raised their full year outlook and they are leaning in on investment here 35 stores they still plan and they argue, hey, look, you know, vertical integration, we don't get hurt as badly with these shortages. >> yeah, absolutely, john. i actually found a lot of interesting nuggets sort of in this call because it was the first quarter that warby reported results as a public company. we got to get more color and background information on sort of the inner workings and for so long i think so many people thought that stores just really weighed down on costs because of rent and because of paying employees. but i think we now understand how expensive it is to run an e-commerce business which is why so many players continue to run at losses just like warby parker but they are adding stores and gave us interesting productivity numbers. the average sales per square foot is $2,900 and that's the goal they want to continue going forward. margins about 35% and t

joining us to break down the story is courtney reagan joined by gina sanchez, here to give us trades today welcome to both. courtney, banana republic, haven't heard about them in a while. >> kelly, you know, i'm not so sure about that one. maybe there's a lot of home there. we will see if it is real and if it pays off. the head of product design actually left just about nine months into the job, so a little bit of concern there i think for the product direction. old navy has really been the shining star of the portfolio, although athleta has grown in response as gap has started to reveal some financial information about that athleisure player. i think there's a lot of growth still to be had there. i would be curious to see expectations there going forward, if they would give us some beyond this fourth quarter. i think that will be important also, i think at old navy they are moving into some plus size clothing, which is a significant opportunity as long as the consumer does accept the fashion. hopefully, it won't be a big inventory miss with them, they're stuck with a lot leftover on

reagan. courtney, good morning >> reporter: hi. good morning, brian. discount retailers tend to attract more shoppers in economic downturns inflation begins to heat up. when you take the rate of inflation into account, real hourly wages actually declined 1.2%, according to the labor department consumer sentiment did rebound slightly from august low but the last two months averaged out to the weakest reading in a decade in-store traffic data from placer dot a ishares an up tick in retailers so traffic in october, compared to 2019 prepandemic is 21% for home goods, 16.5 for target, 113% for ross, 11.5% for burlington and 5.4% for walmart. big box players like walmart and target use their size and scale chartering their own ships for cargo. the off-price players, tjx, ross, burlington are taking advantage of the inventory dislocations from the last 18 months to buy up merchandise at attractive prices and offer it in store for the treasure hunters giving them something to salivate over. investors

. >>> welcome back i'm courtney reagan in for brian sullivan looking at the investments right now. stock futures are just a bit mixed here hardly so in either direction. dow jones off almost 9 points and the nasdaq higher by almost 17 points. the dow closing above that 36,000 mark for the first time s&p hitting new highs. bed bath and beyond shares surging. we should note there is a big amount of interest for sure which had been dictated before back with top stories. >> i'm back. the founder of tiktok's founder bytedance steps down he announced resignation of ceo in may adding he would move to a strategy role. now serving as chairman. bytedance declined to comment. >>> president biden has yet to announce fed chair pick. he didn't specify if he plans to renominate current chair >> extending the salt deduct for five years as part of the broader spending package more liberal members are criticizing the potential move with senator bernie sanders calling the move beyond unacceptable >> other people believe the move the other way is beyond unacceptable i guess that makes politics in this

reagan has numbers. good morning >> good morning, carl. yeah the first really big forecast for the thanksgiving week shopping stretch which is right around the corner. mastercard spending expects retail sales in store and online will grow 10% over last year, 12.2% compared to thanksgiving week 2019. mastercard senior adviser tells me this forecast does take into account inflation and inventory shortages due to the supply chain congestion black friday sales, just that day isolated, looking to increase upwards of 20% over last year. shoppers are expected to return to stores to snap up doorbusters, reverting to black friday from thanksgiving again this year with many stores choosing to stay closed on thanksgiving so what's old is new again many retailers closing on thanksgiving so that the pandemic accelerated when no vaccines were yet available and, of course, that's not the case anymore. stores are still kind of reverting back to what they had done before. it seems it's working for both shoppers and for m

reagan is here to tell us why hey, court >> hi, yes, as online shopping grows, door busters seems to move earlier, it seemed black friday was dying you add in a once in a lifetime pandemic, that would be it i would argue it's reinvigorated. 108 million say they'll shop, 64% in store it will be the biggest in-store shopping day of the year why? deals, top reason for shoppers but tradition is second. smr i if you are in the mid-west shoppers in the northeast are least likely to shop thanksgiving through sunday, but most like will i to shop on cyber monday, according to numerator. plus after closing on thanksgiving 2020, many retailers are opting to do so again. so those in-store black friday door busters are really on friday instead of on thanksgiving back over to you >> i love it i love the whole idea of black friday i think it's so fun. but courtney, as far as winners or losers. nordstrom, i'm going to mention it again it closed down 29% it was a record bad day for that stock. >> yeah. >> i'm wondering as we look for the holiday season, best buy also had a tough week. usually you thi

reagan. >> reporter: thanksgiving weekend is the kickoff traditionally, but shoppers have heeded warnings and taking advantage of early deals i heard the shipping is really slow this year, so i started ordering back in, i want to say late october i normally don't start shopping until after thanksgiving. >> things were taking longer, so that was a big concern of mine. >> people were worked about stock-outs and about finding the right gift those who shopped earlier, about 60% said they experienced stock-outs already. >> some of it was also a desire to get back to normal. from gift giving to decking the has. >> i started decorating way earlier. >> reporter: earlier shopping could lead to higher holiday totals. >> early shoppers end up spending about 23% more on average. i already bought extra stuff i was like, this is all i'm getting them, and then two weeks later, my gosh, they didn't have this two weeks ago. >> kohl's got a terrific response to the preview event. macy's said shopping began earlier this year. the retailer's ceo said it doesn't know how much was done early until later in the

the slew of quarterly results under our belt already courtney reagan is here with a breakdown of what we learned courtney >> hey there, john so far the quarter's retail earnings report reveals a consumer that is using multiple channels for retailers in store and online which typically makes that shopper more valuable target posted the strongest digital sale year over year at 25% comparable sales growth and significant instore traffic and said 70% of sales were fulfilled by the stores. competitor walmart saw net grow just 8% and 87% in two years and added 21 million items to its marketplace just in the quarter. lowe's turning in the best second digital increase for comps at 25% up 158% in two years making up just 9% of total sales lowe's digital business not as advanced as home depot which saw digital sales grow 8% and 95% in two years with 55% of all online orders fulfilled by home depot stores william sonoma is the parent of pottery barn, west elm and other brands saw 64% growth since 2019. giving us a two-year comp but ecommerce now makes up 67% of total revenues one of the biggest

courtney reagan is on it, digging into those stocks. >> hi ty shopping centers are among the first retail subsector to report their quarterly results this week they are painting a rosie rebound, and a hopeful holiday season to come today's pfizer news pushing those shares up even further kimco gaining 6.5% this week traffic up 5% from 2019. occupancy increased to over 94%. face roy up 24% in a week, with traffic up 95% from 2019 the mall operator reports retail sales are exceeding levels with double digit gains compared to 209. it also says retail demand is at a level not seen hins 2019 tanger up 30% in a week. its retail sales increased 13% compared to 2019 hitting all-time high sales per square foot. that's after losing tenants that made up about 1 million square feet during the pandemic simon property group shares up 2.5%, nearly 16% this week that one is widely regarded as the top mall operator. it said this week that mall traffic is still reaching prepandemic levels and its retail sales are up 11% from 2019 43% from 2020. that's really without much of that international tourism comin

courtney reagan has that part of the story. >> yeah, when current inflation is factored in, real hourly wages factor in. sending consumers discount buying spending in the discount sector is up and accelerating up 22.5% in august from 2019, up to 27.5% in october since 2019. couple that with instore traffic data from placer.ai, compared up to 2019. up 16.3% for target and nearly 5.5% for walmart now walmart and tagts are leveraging their scale to get inventory, like chartering their own cargo ship to keep price in check especially in today's inflationary environment and taking advantage of inventory off locations for the past 18 months, buying those at tractive prices giving the instore treasure hunters something to salivate over investors are listening to the story. dollar tree up 16% since that read on inflation came out in mid-october. though even it cannot escape inflation entirely moving its prices above a dollar below shares at 16%. target shares higher at 13%. back over to you >> courtney, thank you very much let's stick, if we might with the discount retail theme. an area where o

reagan sorts through the wreckage. >> nordstrom and gap on track for their worst days best buy reported a largely strong quarter though it did see margins contract like others from higher labor and supply chain costs even organized retail crime best buy had stock up in gaming and phones for example broadly, there is worry about waning demand for consumer electronics. shares got hit and are falling further from tuesday's drop. dick's sporting goods shares falling even though they passed estimates and they raised guidance best buy theically outperforms starting in february so it is recommended to buy on this weakness. nordstrom and gap reported ugly quarters they were also hit by higher wage rates and supply chain issues nordstrom and gap plunging for their worst day ever gap and nordstrom understocks and women's shoes and apparel in the main line department stores. it may take several quarters for management to fix. you could consider this a promotional price. >>> friday officially kicks off the holiday shopping season. you may not fine as many deals out there as in previous years retail

our kayla tausche on the political pressure first, cnbc's courtney reagan on the impact to americans. courtney >> everything that's from last year to this year is either double or tripled in price >> reporter: americans frustrated and feeling the pinch. everywhere they look, prices rising fuel prices for your home and your car way up. gasoline prices surging more than 6% from last month. and in the grocery store, sticker shock. staples like bacon up more than 20% from last year egg prices up 12%. pepsi is raising the price of its drinks and snacks. the price of oreos, sour patch kids and ritz crackers going up 7% in january. shoppers having to pare back. >> what i have been doing is buying a little bit less and just trying to stretch it more, to be honest with you. >> reporter: the soaring prices yet another ripple effect from the pandemic the higher cost of shipping goods around the world and labor shortages are straining the global supply chain. those pressures, coupled with a strong demand for goods, pushing prices higher. >> there's just no roadmap for reopening a $20 trillion eco

courtney reagan is here with the story. courtney, you would think a giant like walmart, if anybody can deal with supply chain issues, can deal with higher costs, it would be walmart >> absolutely melissa. i think walmart sort of is the pinnacle of logistics and supply chain management for many, many years, and i think even with all of today's complications that still remains true when you have the scale, you have the size, you have the power of walmart, you are able to do things like chartering your own ships so that you can be in better control of that cargo, when it comes in and at what costs we know that they're already doing that we know that they have a private truck fleet. when we hear about the trucker shortage, it possibly is something that walmart is able to navigate a little better than some other players so that is always something that walmart is going to have to strive to do in order to keep its brand promise that every day low cost, in order to deliver every day low price, and walmart has proven it has the abi

courtney reagan with new data and how many of you might have been secretly shopping online while others were cooking and cleaning and you were shopping not you. >> not me. early data from the big shopping weekend shows us that consumers spent $2.3 billion online by 3:00 p.m. yesterday. the day on track to see spending as high as 5.4 billion, up about 6% from last year. a good rise there. all of this is happening as stores are just opening right now, because remember many retailers were closed on thanksgiving last year and the retailers decided to do it again this year, which means the instore door busters are back on black friday again you have walmart, target, best buy, a number of retailers among those opening their doors right now on the east coast. 108 million americans are expected to shop today, 64% in store. up from half last year shy of the 2019 levels but today is expected to be the biggest instore shopping day of the year shoppers spend an average of 135 bucks in store today up from $124 last year, in 2020. to be fair, some of that increase could be from lower discount rates o

. >> courtney reagan, thank. >>> the holiday row tail season didn't start out as strong as expected despite some crowded malls. traffic at stores dropped 28 compared with 2019 levels. online retail sales came in at $8 billion versus $9 billion a year ago this comes as president biden meets with ceo's of retailers today. do you think retailers are holding back in any sort of way, either promotionally or the array of goods offered on black friday because of supply chain issues, the fear it won't have the inventory to meet demand >> it could be a piece of it i spent the weekend die jessing a number of the reports you mentioned coming out black friday for years has shifted. it has lost its relevance. i think black friday 2021 was extraordinarily disrupted for a number of factors. supply chain was one of them the chatter everywhere about supply chain disruptions likely caused shoppers to shop even earlier. earlier never, potentially october. that may have shifted some sales away from the black friday holiday. i spent a lot of time with my kids on friday in the mall the mall i went to was crowded

so what does kohl's have in store for the holiday season and the year to come courtney reagan joins us now >> thank you very much, kelly. and, michelle, thank you for being here with us today kelly ran through some of the highlights of the quarter, by and large a pretty good quarter that you turned in i think so many investors are wondering can this momentum be sustained? as kelly mentioned you all didn't give a fourth quarter guidance what are you thinking for holiday? can you keep this up >> well, you just said it, courtney we had an outstanding quarter. and it really is a testament to our efforts to reposition the company. it's working it's working now, and it is setting us up for long-term profitable growth. a couple highlights, our sales were up 16%. i think, importantly, part of this repositioning was the profitability. so record earnings, we did guide the year for an all-time high eps. we're hitting our profit targets. our operating income level three years ahead of time. we're hitting it this year and lastly we announced a huge stock buyback. this is all about the long-term str

so things are changing courtney reagan is watching it all for us what are you seeing in the way that patterns and how people are doing their shopping is moving >> shep with every year digital sales are getting to be a bigger and bigger portion of the total overall sales pie and in-store traffic falls. the pandemic really poured an accelerant into online spending. so far, shopping solid total retail sales grew more than 14% black friday through sunday. with in-store spending up more than 16.5% from 2020 up 1.6% from 2019. this is across all payment forms. adobe analytics says e-commerce spending on thanksgiving day and black friday failed to grow year over year. flat and down 1% respectively. now the company says shoppers have already spent more than $99 billion between november 1st and 28 that's up 13.6% over last year and points to the early spending for the digital disappointment over the weekend plus, online shopping surged in 2020 so holding almost steady isn't really so bad. the end of the big five shopping stretch is just hours away, through 3:00 p.m. eastern time, online sales
