Satuarated oversized behemoth missing Sam Walton and getting spanked by Target on comps is low end rural in a cheap chic urban world. Yet Wal-Mart is still the most efficient, lowest priced mass merchandiser in the US and routinely offers grocery pr...

The much-hated monster continues to make more money....and not get recognized for it. Eventually the falling PE will be noticed by even the most ardent WMT haters. Anticipate a growing dividend as the company continues to grow and mature.

Just drive down any street in America....soon it will be drive down any street in any country. Taking a page from McDonald's growth book. Arkansas spreads like a slow moving ooze and will hit $100 before 2010.

I'd like to get this about $3 cheaper than $46 , but for the risk involved I think the upside is very nice from here. All kinds of world class investors, Nygren, Buffet etc are buying shares. While I appreciate that they have a limited pond of fish...

The company with "Everyday low prices" is selling for an everyday low price. The world's best retailer has only scratched the surface of what it can do internationally. I strongly believe the business model will work world wide because everywhere i...

WallMart has lost its way. Since the death the legandary Sam Walton the company has turned from creating value to ruthlessly extracting value from others. From a win-win it has gone to win-lose. From employees to vendors to communities WalMart treat...

huge moat around the business, good price to book ratio and decent return on equity... do you not think money parked here will compound nicely over the next 40+ years? this company should be around long after any of us, our kids, our grandkids, thei...

While certainly not a popular company right now, I believe that their strong balance sheet, continued investment in growth and newfound awareness of what their image actually is will drive excellent returns for shareholders in the next 5-10 years.
