This giant is hard to ignore, and its stock has been somewhat stagnant for a long time. With a P/E in the mid-teens, profit margins rising, and annual revenues around a third of a trillion dollars, I'm intrigued.

This stock has only been near this price 3 times in the last 5 years.

Sure the company is capping capital expenses and trying to re-focus and that's exactly why I like it.

Walmart needs to slow it's growth down a bit and focus on it's core strength...

How can a company that earns over 12% ROE for 5 years remain at or near its price for this long? This is global storey with a great brand name, and an enormous cost advantage in buying low cost goods. The cost advantage moat in a world focused on low...

Wal-Mart will use their dominant market position and strong financials to continue to grow. Eventually this will be recognized by the street and the stock will trade at or above the upper end of the 52 week range. If you bought at or near the 52 we...

Sound business with competitive advantage that is a consistent grower. Has international growth. Low risk. When it ceases growing it will generate enormous cash flow.

At some point soon (if it isn't already) Wal-Mart will have saturated the US market and growth will slow. As a shopper, I prefer Target and I think that may well be a better long-term stock; however, in the short-term, Wal-Mart holds a dominate marke...
