On today's edition of "MarketFoolery," the new daily podcast from The Motley Fool:

  • Strong earnings from retailers, including Limited Brands (NYSE: LTD). How are they getting it done? Is a new strategy from women shopping at Victoria's Secret at play? (It's a theory I'm pretty sure you won't be hearing on NPR.)
  • On Wednesday, the New York City Council banned smoking in parks, beaches, and Times Square. Will Altria Group (NYSE: MO) be affected, or will the popularity of Mad Men cause NYC to rethink the decision?
  • The CEO of Eastman Kodak (NYSE: EK) predicts 2012 will be a turning point for his company. (He knows shares of Kodak are down more than 80% over the last 5 years, right?)

We put Kodak up against RadioShack (NYSE: RSH) and The New York Times Company (NYSE: NYT) and have our panel pick which will be the first to lose its status as a stand-alone public company.
