Retail
Retailers find themselves facing a welter of uncertainty as they wait to see how changes in credit availability, commodity prices, and consumer demand will pan out. The one thing that is clear, however, is that waiting is the last thing they should do. It is only by taking decisive action now that companies will offset pressures on their top line, enhance their profitability, and emerge in a stronger financial position to make the investments required for long-term value creation as the economy rebounds.
