Best and Worst Dow, S&P 500 Performers YTD

To Kranky: Touche! I think there are supporting facts for both of us. There definitely are negative factors involved on both sides of our discussion. Neither side is without need of improvement. My hope is that both sides will profit from the strongly-opinionated popular discussion of this WMT vs. the world debate.
BTW: I bought my Spiral-cut Ham for Easter at Smith's because their price was lowest! Happy Easter.

Best and Worst Dow, S&P 500 Performers YTD

Dear Kranky,
If you'd like to save some real money; shop WMT! I don't really care what the price of their shares is. It's the price of my groceries, appliances, and other household needs that matter.
And where would their employees be working if not at WMT? Do you think Mom & Pop would pay them more?

CNBC's Gasparino Joining the Plunge Protection Team?

Charlie told us it was heresay and warned us not to take action on the rumor. But being the children that we are, it was like being told not to go into the cookie jar. Don't blame Charlie, he has no crystal ball; nor does anyone else. The financial gurus can't tell you what the market will do in the next 10 minutes, let alone the end of this quarter or the end of the year. Only you are in charge of your actions. If you react to such rumors you may be ahead of the crowd or you may be sorry. It's like putting your wad on red at the casino; the only sure thing is that either red or black will come up. At this point in time, you may do better at the casino.
