In early June, Target announced that they would be taking aggressive measures to reduce a surplus of inventory, despite the impact it would have on their profit margin during the current quarter. The New York Times explains that “Target plans to cut prices and cancel orders to clear out unwanted inventory … to combat inflation and supply chain disruptions.”

Like many retailers, Target was pressed to supply goods that were in high demand during the early months of the pandemic, leading them to overstock necessities and products that were being disrupted by supply chain issues. With things starting to wind down in terms of COVID-19, consumers are no longer purchasing formerly high-demand items such as furniture and appliances, shifting their spending to going out, according to The New York Times.
