Specialty retailers trading in line with the overall market despite The Container Store warning.

Specialty retailers largely ignore The Container Store warning; Bed Bath & Beyond, Pier 1 Imports, and Williams-Sonoma all are trading in line with the overall market this morning. The Container Store CEO Kip Tindell issued cautious comments for the sector yesterday, noting in the company's earnings call that specialty retailers are "seeing more challenging sales certainly than we had hoped for early in 2014."
