Retailer's April Sales Are Weaker Than Expected 

April same-store-sales figures came in below already dour expectations, resulting in some companies reducing their first-quarter outlook. Wal-Mart and Target both missed expectations, posting 3.5% and 6.1% sales drops, respectively.

 The retailers' weakness comes as an earlier Easter pushed some holiday-related sales into the March reporting period. Also hurting results was the coldest April in at least a decade, damping demand for spring and summer items.
