Wal-Mart (WMT -3%) takes another leg down after an exec confirms what Cleveland Research warned...

    Wal-Mart (WMT -3%) takes another leg down after an exec confirms what Cleveland Research warned on earlier - February sales are off to a disastrous start due in part to the expiration of the payroll tax cut. No surprise, but shares of Target (TGT -2.6%) are falling hard as well.

  • Remember our Idiot in Chief (400s on his SATs, admits to 500s and being in the bottom 2% of his Columbia College class) raised the SS on supposedly his people, who feel the pain most since the bottom 50% earners only pay 3% of Federal taxes so any SS increase hits them hardest. Pass the pipeline=boom. But Barbra Streisand doesn't want that so he toadies to the elite.

    Walmart lives in the real world where Democrats shop.

  • You're entirely correct. Democrats are for the "little guy" and the middle class and yet the elite won't go near a walmart in the ghetto. Ironic isn't it?

  • Please don't call our President an idiot with your lies. It makes you look like ... an idiot.

  • Search Google for Obama's admission. Then search SAT by President. Then Harvard Law School, Columbia College, or Harvard College admissions data. Hard to get but available. Hard to get the admissions data, the other is transparent.

  • We've got a tiny holding of WMT and no TGT in the family Roth accounts. I would like to own more of both, but they are going to have to drop a bit more. I just can't buy in to a sub 2.5% yield. Watching and hoping for some downward continuation.

  • Please come down to 62 so I can load up the truck!!!!! Folks tend to overdo these kinds of things and it's always a great opportunity to get in. I got out at 71. It was overbought. I can see the lemmings dropping this to 62, just like they did with FCX and the Mexican WMT "scandal" which turned out to be nothing. I'm going to take money from the fear yet again!

  • I would start getting interested at $62. That would push the yield to 2.5% which is my bare minimum for a stock like WMT. It will take a fair amount of fear to drive it down that far though.
