NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Nordstrom (JWN) stock is rallying 6.22% to $79.58 in after-hours trading on Thursday after the department store chain posted strong second quarter 2015 earnings results that topped analysts' estimates. The company's revenue fell slightly short of estimates.
Now, the retailer is looking at its third CEO in less than four years and with little sales progress to boot.
