Retail Sector Doom and Gloom
The days are numbered for many brick-and-mortar retail giants, but there are some who are well prepared for the storm.

With nearly every transaction and communication under the sun being carried out online, it isn’t surprising that online stock trading is now the trend. This has caught up in retail too, with the physical, brick-and-mortar retail sector set to face its doomsday pretty soon because of the rise and growing popularity of e-commerce.

It may seem that the world of brick-and-mortar retail could come to an end soon. Indeed, it wouldn’t be too far from the truth since more physical stores are getting closed now than during the recession. Radio Shack has closed 1000 stores from Memorial Day and declared bankruptcy, while Payless Shoe Source is set to close 800 stores. The other brick-and-mortar stores such as Macy’s, Sears, J.C. Penney and Michael Kors are all retreating, fast closing down their stores due to lack of sales.

But experts believe there are some brick-and-mortar retail stocks you can bank on, since not only are these companies not shrinking like many of their rivals but they are still expanding and showing signs of health. Among these are Dollar General ($DG), TJX Companies ($TJX) and Costco ($COST).
