Doug? Yeah probably. I've been there for 8 years for better or for worse. But WMT is always about economy of scale and cutting costs. Wages are probably the biggest operational cost for us; hence why WMT wants to use technology to automate things. Why pay three or four people $12/hr to change price labels every week (and they have additional overhead beyond that!), when you can pay a one-time fee to have electronic labels automatically change? Stuff like that.

I think the price dropped from a combination of taking profits and outperforming this quarter, eg it's a snapback to reality and pricing in a softer Q4 for us. Most of our profits come from Q4 and hard goods, though the other quarters had good growth in online/grocery sales due to recessionary pressures. We'll be competing with other vendors for Christmas bucks for sure, consumers are price sensitive and looking for deals, which will hurt our revenue in those categories, but at the same time if our margins are wide on those items, we can probably afford to have sales and protect our revenue that way.

Either way, I think today's sell (while justified), is probably more intense than it needed to be. I'm confident we'll have support around the 160-164 level again in a few weeks/months, provided some (((outside factors))) don't shit the economy

No problem, it's good to keep a balance of skepticism and an eye out for anomalies.

I've literally been making $1000 a day since I started trading on the chart, and I don't even play options.

Why do Jews get so many special sessions?

It's pretty spooky how fucking slow this general is today.
