An interesting news-note. Take it for what it's worth.
Wal-Mart Stores [...] is cutting orders it places with suppliers this quarter and next to
address rising inventory the company flagged in last month’s earnings
report.
...U.S. chains are already bracing for a tough holiday season, when sales
are projected to rise 2.4 percent, the smallest gain since 2009,
according to ShopperTrak, a Chicago-based firm. Wal-Mart cut its annual
profit forecast after same-store sales fell 0.3 percent in the second
quarter....
WallyWorld is not un-sophisticated. They just can't move the goods out the door.
