Target executives are probably getting together every 48 hours to get updates on the company's market cap, and every time there's probably some sad, scared intern who has to tell them the horrible news, the same news every time:

[Target shares] fell another 3.66% Tuesday, marking the eighth straight decline and lopping off another $2.4 billion in market cap, as tracked by Dow Jones Market Data Group.

Since the backlash, Target's market value has fallen over $12 billion to $61.77 billion as of Tuesday's closing price. Mid-month the market value was over $74 billion.
