Nordstrom Takes Q2 Hit From Weak Economy

Nordstrom reported a 20.6% drop in net income for its second quarter to $143 million. This compares to earnings of $180 million a year ago.

Despite holding two major sales in the quarter, the department store chain could not shake off the weak economic environment.

Nordstrom expects a drop in same-store sales of between 4% and 6% in the third quarter.
