One of America’s key industries just gave us another warning sign…

Last Wednesday, stock in Macy’s (M)—the largest department store in the U.S. and an iconic American brand—plunged 15%.

The next day, department store Kohl’s (KSS) fell 9%…

And on Friday, high-end retailer Nordstrom (JWN) joined the bloodbath, dropping 13%.

The massive selloff—which the media is calling the “Retail Wreck”—was due to terrible first-quarter results.
