The following video is part of our "Motley Fool Conversations" series, in which consumer goods editor/analyst Austin Smith and financial and economics sector head Ilan Moscovitz discuss topics across the investing world.

In today's edition, Ilan and Austin discuss the head-butting that's going on between Martha Stewart Living, Macy's, and J.C. Penney.
