Kohl’s Corporation (KSS): Are Investors Missing The Big Picture?

Kohl’s Corp. (NYSE: KSS) shares gained 6.20% during the trading session on Monday. There were 13.04 million shares traded during the session. At the close of the previous session, KSS was trading at $55.97. It was the activity of some large investors that drove the rise in KSS Stock, even though they changed the board of directors’ composition and tweaked the company’s policy.

Several of Kohl’s most significant investors – Macellum Advisors, Ancora Holdings, Legion Partners Asset Management, and 4010 Capital – collectively own close to 9.5 % of the retailer. A group of nine individuals was recently nominated to Kohl’s board of directors to influence the company.


Kohl’s current investors lobby for the group to cut executive compensation, reduce inventory levels, and conduct sales/leaseback of the stores it owns to free up cash. The investors also wanted to return some of their shares for a profit. These moves are expected to boost the stock’s value. The stock market seems to have taken this news positively, which caused quotations to grow.
