Target shares have declined significantly, but I see value in its current valuation compared to Walmart and Costco. Despite recent underperformance, TGT's strong fundamentals, dividend yield over 3.5%, and forward earnings potential make it a compelling investment. TGT's strategic investments in supply chain efficiency and private label brands could drive a rebound and unlock long-term value.

The business is divided into two categories, discretionary and non-discretionary, which allows for less volatility.
