Kohls stock jumped 42% after company said shoppers are returning

Kohl’s Corp. is coming off its best day of the year on Wall Street after it reported a better than expected third quarter earnings on Nov. 25 and the stock jumped up 42%. 

While some observers may have been surprised the results, others believe shares in the Menomonee Falls-based retailer should be worth more.

Here’s some reasons behind the sharp increase in the company’s stock price.
