Two new Target stores coming to New Jersey. Here's where.
In March, Target announced plans to drive more than $15 billion in sales growth that included investing in opening or remodeling stores that offer "space and flexibility to incorporate the best of Target's shopping experience." The big box store had plans to open a total of 300 stores over the next decade.
According to Target's website, the two stores opening in New Jersey are:
(Hunterdon County): 325 Route 202 (75,525 square feet, smaller than average store)
(Essex County): 235 Prospect Ave. (150,000 square feet, larger than average store)
Target notes they chose locations across 22 states based off several factors including community need, site constraints and nearby Target stores. According to the website, there is a Target within 10 miles of most doorsteps in America (although if you live in a rural area, take that with a grain of salt).
In addition to two stores opening in New Jersey, two Target stores are opening in New York State and two in Pennsylvania, according to Target's website. States with multiple opening include:
California (4)
Florida (6)
North Carolina (4)
South Carolina (3)
Texas (6)
A tentative opening date for the Target store in West Orange is set for Fall 2025, according to reporting by Patch. Construction was underway in May at the former Kmart in the West Orange Plaza, which is anchored by a Whole Foods supermarket, according to NorthJersey.com.
The Target store in Flemington, the first in Hunterdon County, is expected to open this summer, according to Target. It will be open Monday to Saturday from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. and Sunday from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. The store will be the 53rd to open in the state.
Target's new store designs are meant to better service guests and team members, with a more open layout and localized elements to inspire and serve guests, according to Target. Stores will continue to open in all sizes, although the plan is to focus on a larger footprint in the coming years. The new stores will offer updated larger layouts, enhanced in-store pickup options and a larger assortment of merchandise, from food and beverages to entertainment, clothing and accessories.
New Jersey currently has 52 Target stores, according to the Target website. Find a store near you by checking out their store directory.

Fed's Williams won't comment on Trump attacks on central bank
By Michael S. Derby NEW YORK (Reuters) -Federal Reserve Bank of New York President John Williams declined on Wednesday to comment on President Donald Trump's attacks on the central bank and what it might mean if the president were to somehow remove the Fed's leader from office. 'I can't comment' on what the president has said and how markets reacted, Williams told reporters. He was commenting on reports from earlier in the day that suggested Trump was close to firing Fed Chairman Jerome Powell, even as the president later said that was not something he was planning to do. Williams reiterated that an independent central bank delivers better results and noted that in his experience Fed officials and staff maintain a 'laser like' focus on the central bank's mission. Williams also told reporters that amid a drop in the dollar's value, its status as the preeminent reserve currency remains unchanged. 'There are a lot of fundamental factors that support the role of the dollar … in global trade and in global financial markets, and that I see is unchanged now.' Sign in to access your portfolio

Oil rises as demand hopes and economic data lift sentiment
By Anjana Anil (Reuters) -Oil prices rose in early trade on Thursday, reversing the previous session's losses, buoyed by stronger-than-expected economic data from the world's top oil consumers and signs of easing trade tensions. Brent crude futures rose 27 cents, or 0.39%, to $68.79 a barrel at 0000 GMT. U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude futures were up 31 cents, or 0.47%, at $66.69. Both benchmarks fell more than 0.2% in the previous session. U.S. crude inventories fell by 3.9 million barrels to 422.2 million barrels last week, the Energy Information Administration said on Wednesday, a steeper decline than forecasts for a 552,000-barrel draw, suggesting stronger refinery activity, tighter supply, and increased demand. [EIA/S] There is "some support from the favorable margin environment associated with the refining sector. Product spreads remain relatively wide in all the regions," said John Paisie, president of Stratas Advisors. However, larger-than-expected builds in gasoline and diesel inventories capped price gains. The U.S. central bank's latest snapshot of the economy, released on Wednesday, showed activity picked up in recent weeks. However, the outlook was "neutral to slightly pessimistic" as businesses reported that higher import tariffs were putting upward pressure on prices. China data showed growth slowed in the second quarter, but not by as much as previously feared, in part because of front-loading to beat U.S. tariffs, easing fears over the state of the world's largest crude importer's economy. The data also showed that China's June crude oil throughput was up 8.5% from a year ago, implying stronger fuel demand. Additionally, "support has come from the positive news pertaining to some easing of trade tensions between China and the U.S. with President Trump lifting the ban on the sale of AI chips to China along with the announcement of a trade deal with Indonesia," John Paisie added. U.S. President Donald Trump offered fresh optimism about the prospects of a deal with Beijing on illicit drugs. He also hinted that a trade deal with India is very close, while an agreement could possibly be reached with Europe as well. Trade tariffs could slow down global economic growth, and in turn dampen fuel demand, putting downward pressure on prices.

Trump Vows Coca-Cola Will Use Cane Sugar In U.S. Sodas — But Did Anyone Tell Coke?
Attempting to dismiss the Jeffrey Epstein scandal as a 'hoax' wasn't the only thing President Donald Trump did on Wednesday: He also made a bold claim that Coca-Cola was making a big change to its flagship product. The president took to his Truth Social platform to declare that the soft drink manufacturer had agreed to replace the corn syrup used to sweeten Cokes in the U.S. with cane sugar: I have been speaking to Coca-Cola about using REAL Cane Sugar in Coke in the United States, and they have agreed to do so. I'd like to thank all of those in authority at Coca-Cola. This will be a very good move by them — You'll see. It's just better! There's just one teeny tiny issue with the president's statement: So far, Coca-Cola hasn't confirmed that company officials have agreed to go along with the plan. The closest anyone can find is a link on the Coca-Cola website that has this very broad, open-to-interpretation statement — and not anything close to a confirmation: We appreciate President Trump's enthusiasm for our iconic Coca‑Cola brand. More details on new innovative offerings within our Coca‑Cola product range will be shared soon. Considering that Trump announced the news at a time when his followers aren't happy about his recent handling of the Epstein scandal, it's no wonder that the Coke announcement ― which, again, was made without the company's official confirmation ― was thoroughly mocked. Many people assumed the president was trying to create a distraction to draw attention away from other aspects of his presidency. Oh thank god! I've totally forgotten about the Epstein files now! — Gavin Newsom (@GavinNewsom) July 16, 2025 Cool, now release the Epstein files. We're not changing the subject. — Warren (@swd2) July 16, 2025 What Trump did today:- Forgot he appointed Fed Chair Powell during his first term- Yelled at a reporter to be quiet- Said he can't appoint special counsel to investigate Epstein because he has "nothing to do with that"- Prioritized changing the type of sugar in Coca Cola — FactPost (@factpostnews) July 16, 2025 President Trump is the best spokesman for Coca-Cola since Dr. Cosby! — Gary Peterson 🇺🇸 (@GaryPetersonUSA) July 16, 2025 Literally two days ago, Trump announced they were blocking a bunch of sugar imports. Today, Trump says he's gonna make Coca-Cola use like he's actively trying to design the least sensible trade policy possible — Joey Politano 🏳️🌈 (@JosephPolitano) July 16, 2025 Fact check: The whole reason that Coca-Cola uses High Fructose Corn syrup in their sodas here in America of longstanding tariffs on sugar (as @professor_TopK always talks about) — BonkDaCarnivore (@BonkDaCarnivore) July 16, 2025 You can put the cane sugar back in Coke, but you can't take Trump out of the Epstein files — Jamie Bonkiewicz (@JamieBonkiewicz) July 16, 2025 Decades of protectionist trade polices are the reason that Coca-Cola does not use real sugar in its US product. Sugar costs twice as much in the USA as in free-trade countries. — David Frum (@davidfrum) July 16, 2025 Trump needs to bring back cocaine in Coca Cola — e-beth (@ebeth360) July 16, 2025 Trump is working on getting everyone the special Jew Coke. (Coca Cola uses cane sugar in its limited Kosher for Passover line, which is why some non-Jewish enthusiasts buy it up every year, and also why some antisemites are obsessed with "Jew Coke.") — Yair Rosenberg (@Yair_Rosenberg) July 16, 2025 Related...
