Barclays Analyst on How Retail Stocks Are Managing Tariffs

WSJ's Take On the Week

In this week's episode of WSJ’s Take On the Week, co-host Gunjan Banerji and guest co-host Miriam Gottfried dive into the big questions around the AI trade after last week's stumble. Could Nvidia’s earnings this week shift things back? Meanwhile, Gunjan points out a shift under the market’s surface: a rotation into blue chips as tech takes a back seat. Plus, earnings from Target and Walmart offer mixed signals on retail.

Later, Miriam and Adrienne Yih, senior retail analyst at Barclays, are set to dive into the impact of tariffs on companies such as American Eagle Outfitters, Gap and Abercrombie & Fitch. Then, Yih tells Miriam why this back-to-school season is important for apparel retailers. Our last take: Which retailer has the most pricing power right now?

This is WSJ’s Take On the Week where co-hosts Gunjan Banerji, lead writer for Live Markets, and Telis Demos, Heard on the Street’s banking and money columnist, cut through the noise and dive into markets, the economy and finance—the big trades, key players and business news ahead.
