Minneapolis based Target Corporation today reported a 4 percent decline in December sales based on stores open at least a year, a key barometer for retailers.

Steinhafel says Target saw stronger results in the last two weeks of the month, but he says price cuts will hurt the company's fourth quarter profits.
