Did Wal-Mart do the same to Bentonville?

Laid off auto workers and ex walmart employess are not going to alluva sudden become Google programmers.

Nothing too cheap (stay away from Wal-Mart or Target).

It's a very different investment outlook if it is Wal-Mart or fast-food chains vs. a factory or a large service firm.

Often Walmarts dominate the new retail scene and other stores cluster around the new Walmart.  

Will Bezos just rip retail apart and 95% of household products will be purchased on Amazon and Walmart? 

It's as "top-tier" as Walmart. :)This software asks you a bunch of questions, and it does so in the tax lingo, without bothering to explain or clarify.

If they were in an aisle of Wal Mart, you would avoid that aisle. 

The 50% rule is like using the acid test ratio, or quick ratio, it's a good initial indication, but it does not replace crunching the numbers.When you get to more advanced investing strategies, you'll begin looking at:Tax benefits,Possible appreciation,Rent demands and repricing of rents,Change of use of the property,Financial leveraging benefits,Flip possibilities,and much more.Using the 50% rule alone would be like making a buy decision based on the earnings per share last quarter of Wal-Mart stock, IMO.

So I'm walking into Walmart and some dude I didn't recognize comes up to me with the biggest grin on his face.
