 Shares of TJX Companies TJX, 1.96 fell 1.4 in premarket trading Wednesday, after the off-price apparel and home fashions retailer reported fiscal second-quarter profit that rose above expectations, while same-store sales fell more than forecast as historically high inflation hurt consumer spending, particularly for home goods. Net income for the quarter to July 30 rose to 809.3 million, or 69 cents a share, from 785.7 million, or 64 cents a share, in the year-ago period.
