NEW YORK, May 21 (Xinhua) -- U.S. retail company Target has said a laundry list of problems dragged down its quarterly sales, including a boycott by shoppers who disagreed with its decision this year to end some diversity programs.
"Target's sales have been tepid for years. In the three months ended May 3, they got even worse, with comparable sales falling 3.8 percent, a steeper drop than analysts expected," reported The Wall Street Journal.
