If President Trump is trying to hurt Nordstrom, it appears he's failed.
The company's stock price has climbed more than 7% since Trump lashed out at the company on Twitter Wednesday morning.
The president claimed his daughter, Ivanka, "has been treated so unfairly" by Nordstrom (JWN) because the company decided last week to stop carrying clothes and accessories from her fashion label. The company has said it parted ways with the Ivanka Trump brand due to declining sales.
After the Twitter blast, Nordstrom stock dipped slightly before it began climbing -- and Thursday it reached its highest point so far this month. The company's stock price surpassed the $46 mark Thursday -- compared to its Just before Trump posted the attack, Nordstrom's stock price was at $42.65.
The boost has helped Nordstrom's stock nearly recover all the losses its taken since the beginning of the year.
It's a welcome boost for the retailer, considering Nordstrom -- like many brick-and-mortar retailers -- has been struggling against e-commerce giants like Amazon (AMZN, Tech30). Despite the surge and an August earnings report that beat Wall Street's expectations, its stock is still down more than 9% over the last 12 months.

I hope this pisses off Trump more.

Seriously, stressing this guy and his cabinet out of office seems like one of the best ways we can fight back right now, because clearly the government isn't calling him out on his shit.

Wonder how many other companies will dump trump products after this and if this is the reason Conway was peddling Ivankas crap to the republican base on fox this morning.

Between this and the Super Bowl, it seems like corporate America is realizing Trumpism is way too toxic to be associated with.

Nordstrom sells great clothes and I'd recommend people buy from them. If the prices are too high, see if there's a Nordstrom Rack around you. I work near one and stop by once every few weeks just to see if I can catch a deal on some clothes, especially Denim as Nordstrom sells Paige, AG, LBM, and a lot of the denim brands I like.

I remember reading something about Nordstrom sueing Easy D over this. I don't know if they have any legal grounds to do so, but I hope they do

Maybe his cratering popularity has already inverted that effect, and the day traders will be goading Trump into trolling one of their stock positions.

Haha, that would be something.

The issue with this is that most people that support Trump couldn't afford to shop at Nordstrom anyways so them being upset wouldn't hurt their bottomline at all. It's the same as the boycott Hamilton movement for people that weren't going to see it anyway.

Well, they did get rid of products that didn't sell, so thanks to Trump for pointing that out. Always helping out American businesses lmao
