  • Wal-Mart May Get an Anti-Trust Reprieve, But... [View article]
    What information out there suggests that there are any plans by anyone to try to break-up Wal-Mart based on anti-trust concerns? I don't think I've ever heard of a retailer getting hit on anti-trust and Wal-Mart still has considerable competition with Target (on the department store front) and several grocery chains.

    I think Wal-Mart is more likely to suffer if gas prices start coming back up. The Wal-Mart business model is based on the assumption of cheap gasoline. If gasoline costs $5/gallon, people start buying from their neighborhood grocery stores (a few miles away) rather than driving 10 miles out to the Wal-Mart Supercenter.
