TJ Maxx parent TJX Companies (TJX) wasn't so lucky, forecasting a weaker-than-expected forecast for the same period as its retail sector peer. The week kicked off on a sour note after Moody's Investors Services slashed its U.S. credit rating outlook to "negative," though the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI) managed to turn in a modest win on Monday. Upbeat inflation data helped the blue-chip index score its third-straight win, while falling Treasury yields boosted the S&P 500 (SPX) and Nasdaq Composite (IXIC).
