1254 ET - Dollar General will likely report solid 4Q results, Truist analysts say in a research note, citing internal card data. However, that same card data shows a slower start to the year and indicates a significant slowdown in growth from higher-income customers, especially in February. "One month doesn't make a trend, but the sizable drop in spending from the top-quartile group in February needs to be monitored," the analysts say, adding they'll be looking for Dollar General to address the trend during its 4Q readout Thursday. Dollar General is off 0.4% and up 85% in the past 12 months.(connor.hart@wsj.com)
