From what I can tell, they represent the middle of the middle market, which is what JCPenney represents everywhere else. There's enough room in that sector for Penney's to be profitable without major heartburn for Macy's. They compliment each other pretty well.Livemallshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01567198484359363455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9879987.post-84478749817772138732009-10-01T18:35:24.241-04:002009-10-01T18:35:24.241-04:00Steven - Great post!

I really like the customized marketing they're doing - no doubt they realize the stakes are high.<br /><br />I love your pic with the JCP banner on the same pole as the "Avenue of the Americas" (honorary name for 6th Ave.) street sign. JCPenney's home office had that address for decades before they moved the HQ to Dallas in the early 90's.Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07788722183424550052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9879987.post-68541292885727422042009-10-01T00:03:57.083-04:002009-10-01T00:03:57.083-04:00cantnot: If non-stop promotion makes any differen...cantnot: If non-stop promotion makes any difference, JCPenney should do okay in New York. the ads were inescapable.<br /><br />ct36: To me, it doesn't look much like Macy's.
