Walmart beats estimates but misses on revenue

Oh my!

The consumer is dead!

Won't that be the second derivative story that we will hear now? Wait--doesn't the consumer make up 70% of GDP? What % of GDP did they make up in the last quarter?

70.7%.

Oh my!

Remember Sears/Kmart? That didn't have revenue growth but beat on the top line?

Remember the bears on Sears? Who shorted it on the 40s and 50s?


How did that work out?

So now they are left with picking on WMT for a point!
