Coles heading for tough times

Article Abstract:

Target may have become the redeeming feature in the Coles Myer empire in the recent past, but the future does not hold appealing prospects for the retail giant. Myer's performance is a suspect and with likelihood of currency weakening, retailing will only get tougher. To top it all, the battleground with archrival Woolworth will now be the liquor market where Coles is already handicapped.
