Moon, I just got back from a quick trip to New York and talked to a Thread manufacturer. He was telling me how Wal-mart has put a lot of small Wholesalers out of business. Wal-mart will only deal with manufactures. They want only the best deal. I told him I have bought his shirts for years, never at Walmart. They last for years!!! Just a thought, Bruce i get that part, Bruce.. but that isn't what this thread is about, was my point. however, i did miss a post made by someone, which resulted in my questioning the Virginian as i did.. i've apologized to him privately for that oversight. |

They can spin off WalMex into a different company, and have it trade elsewhere, maybe. I think bribes are part of doing business in Mexico, if I'm wrong, it won't be the first time.  |

Moon, In fact Walmart's huge distribution system is as much Wholesale as retail..Like Revco years ago much of the profits were from Wholesale/distribution. Yes, they buy direct from China and have there own import systems,also!! That is how they were so early into China with huge stores. Thank-you, Bruce |

Walmart is ruining all businesses. No. Walmart is not. The people who reward them by shopping there are. |

Based on WMT stock price, the bribery issue is null and void.
WMT stock has outperformed just about everything this month.
