Target, the retail giant, has hit a rough patch with their stock experiencing the longest losing streak in 23 years. This comes in the wake of intense backlash from conservative consumers following Target’s decision to stock LGBTQ-themed products in honor of Pride Month. JP Morgan has downgraded Target’s outlook, and their new price target prediction is a significant drop from the original. This raises questions about the effectiveness of corporations engaging with social issues and the potential consequences of such actions. The story is still unfolding, and the long-term impacts are yet to be seen.
