RCE Podcast episode 5: Amazon profits plummet, more JC Penney news, and whether 'Made in America' still matters

July 27, 2012

Amazon made an awful lot of money in the second quarter - but kept only a fraction of it. We run the numbers in this episode, then talk about all of the news coming out of the JC Penney camp lately. And then, our panel tackles a provocative question - does "Made in America" still matter to shoppers?

On the call, three of our expert retail bloggers:

• Dale Furtwengler, pricing strategist
• Sheridan Orr, manager of the Interrobang Agency
• Bob Phibbs, the Retail Doctor
