There's just not been much innovation at some CPG companies - Kraft is a huge example of what happens when you prioritize cost cutting over innovation. Store brands are also winning - many of them taste better and are at least moderately cheaper. "General Mills follow suit?" The Kelloggs deal will probably at least start some food M&A discussions with various brands but whether they go anywhere who knows. General Mills could spin off pet food w/Blue Buffalo but take that away and you're left with an unappealing set of people food brands. They need to dump underperforming brands and try to look for deals to refresh the portfolio but no guarantee that that works. Bad deals can certainly happen - look at SJM already writing down the value of the Hostess purchase less than two years later. Personally would continue to prefer who owns the shelves in terms of food - KR, WMT, SFM - than the brands trying to compete for shelf space.

WMT trades at 40x earnings… yeah fuck it, called.

WMT, Berkshire, LLY, UNH, and GOOG are my individual stocks and the past few weeks is providing an index fund really is just the better move. Need a couple upswings to catch up

Fuck i was going to buy BBAI at that dip but bought WMT leaps instead

any thoughts why WMT has been absolute dog shit this week?

speculative tech plays are getting killed today. old economy? (banks, consumer discrectionary, retail minus COST and WMT) boomin!

A lot of rambling thoughts: I don't think there's a recession imminent but I don't think it's a bad idea in general to really go through your portfolio and consolidate around best ideas. Anything that sort of "sounded good at the time"/you're so-so about/started a little position in something that you don't see going beyond that/hasn't gone the way you hoped/turned out to be crap/etc etc etc - get rid of that and gradually re-deploy that cash to your best ideas or new great ideas that you have real confidence in. I often say that when the market is tanking, if your first instinct on a position is to hit the sell button then you're not really that confident in it. Have a portfolio where your first instinct on what you own if the market went in the toilet tomorrow would to be to hold or add more. If you have a portfolio where you have a higher/high degree of confidence in what you own, it makes it somewhat easier to get through a lousy market with less stress. If someone bought a ton of stuff because they read about it somewhere and it's a mixed bag, a lousy market is going to be way more stressful than someone who has confidence in what they own. Have a longer-term view with your investments. IMO, too many people have become focused on what is a stock going to do in the next 15 minutes/their investment time horizon is "until the line stops going up on the chart." Having even a moderately longer-term view on your investments in a period where that seems increasingly uncommon I think helps. If the market is like it was in early April and you say, "maybe the market has a bit more downside but I think I'm likely to be happy with these prices 6-12 months from now", it's a lot easier to buy in that situation with that mindset imo than it would be then if you're trying to make decisions based on what the same name might do in the next day or week. If you're making decisions based on what something might do tomorrow or next week, you're likely going to make investing more stressful than it should be and you're probably going to wind up selling good companies on a headline that probably ultimately didn't matter to the company. If you can get a great cost basis on a great company that you think can do well over time, why get rid of that entirely? I think too many people seem to flip their portfolio so frequently based on whatever the headline of the moment is that when the market does go South, they see a portfolio that's all red because most of the portfolio probably wasn't added that long ago. I am *mostly* a growth investor, but a bit of that is early stage growth, a bunch is somewhat speculative/aggressive growth and some of that is what I'd consider quality/slower growth. I also own some value. When the market has done really well for an extended period, I might dial down more speculative growth a bit into strength and dial up value/quality growth. In April when the market was tanking, dialed up aggressive/speculative growth and dialed back value/quality growth. I think people should consider at least a little bit of style diversity - feels like so many people are just large cap growth. There's also opportunities in other countries. I think there's a fair amount of quality growth/value that has been discarded/is out of favor. Certainly not everything that hasn't worked/is down is worthwhile (really often only a small % imo) but there's stuff out there that is decidedly out of favor and perhaps that's worth a small allocation. One can use alternative strategies or small hedges but this kind of market can run much longer than one would think and alternatives can have lousy periods too, especially in markets that don't have a clear direction one way or the other. Shorting also now introduces having to time that trade. Some stuff that is traditionally "recession-proof" (WMT, for example) is expensive and if there was a recession tomorrow (again, I don't think but if there was) I don't know that it would quite serve as well as it has in prior downturns. Again, I really don't agree with the idea of people dumping half their portfolio because they randomly think one day that the market has gone up too much. IMO, *gradually* dial risk up or down. I also don't think it's a good idea to get too into the "stocks only go up" mentality or the apocalyptic sentiment when the market is tanking. Run your portfolio as if "everything is awesome, stocks only go up 4ever" it might work great for a while and then an early 2025 comes along and your portfolio suddenly gets obliterated and you can only dial back because you were 110% risk on. On the flip side, when the CNN Fear and Greed looks like it's about to go into negative numbers, if you're not buying some at that point, then when? The reality with investing is often somewhere in the middle - don't get too caught up in market/sentiment extremes. Lastly, very very (very) true: "Far more money has been lost by investors trying to anticipate corrections, than lost in the corrections themselves." - Peter Lynch.

GliceDidYouSayGlice

It's roughly the highest WMT has ever been. In my analysis, I think it could go higher, or could stay roughly the same, or could go down.

narrowant341

Amazon sales being down means WMT, COST, TGT and every other major retailer will be hit. Wen this numbers show up in the data, market will rip +1%.

Tbh: I would be for excluding Apple from MAG7. Why? I see a lot of moves and sentiments for stock performance, which are purely based on speculations and rumors. Apple has a flat growth, but Apple still makes more money than any other MAG7 companies (Alphabet excluded). I think excluding Apple from MAG7 would help to stabilize the stock performance. KO, COST, WMT, WM, and others are barely highlighted in the media, but they are doing exceptionnaly well.

Lmao did some news come out on WMT? What a rug pull

TheInkDon1

You've gotten some great advice in this thread, some of which I could have replied to, but I wanted to make sure you saw my take on options. You've already been investing in stocks: great, keep doing that. But now you're going to buy ITM long-dated Calls as **stock substitutes.** Why would you do that instead of just buying shares? **Leverage**. 2 quick rules for you: BUY Calls at least a year out, and at least 80-delta. Now pick a stock you like, maybe one you're already holding, and look at its Call option chain a year or so out. Let's look at **WMT**, up 41% in the past year. The 529DTE 82.5C is at 80-delta and is selling for 24.48 here AH. Divide that into the spot price of 99.35 to get 4.05. That means you're getting 4x leverage to Walmart stock. (Sort of: we have to multiply by Delta, 0.80, to get 3.2x leverage.) Think about that for a minute. For every percent that WMT goes up, your long Call goes up 3.2%. *Leverage*. But you're doing the same thing you did before: picking good stocks to buy; only you're investing in them by buying Calls. So don't think of options as some separate "thing" you can do; think of them as simply a way to leverage your current trades. Now do you want some real fun? Sell Calls against those Calls. Do you sell Covered Calls now on your holdings? If you don't, you should. After reading all this, watch InThe Money Adam's [tutorial on the PMCC](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LmqbVg9zqjQ) (which I'm about to build for you). Pay attention to his first 2 sentences. Two new rules: Sell Calls at 30-delta or less, 30 to 45 days out. For WMT right now that might be the 8Aug103C at 31-delta and 31DTE from tomorrow selling for 1.15. Calculate the ROI: 1.15 divided by 24.48. 4.7% Apy that: 4.7% divided by 31 days, times 365 days: 55% Which is saying, if you could do that month after month for a year, you'd make 55% *just from selling Covered Calls.* That's not even accounting for appreciation of the long Call. Let Walmart go up 41% in the next year from today, and it goes up 131% (due to the leverage multiplier). The PMCC is a very powerful strategy, if you pick solid underlyings.

Idk, options charts say vast majority of ppl are buying puts on WMT. Are you buying longer calls? I plan to do 15 minute calls on WMT and/or puts if it trends downward for more than 2hrs around noon. & I agree about XLP interesting to see where it goes next

Planning to do a fat WMT debit call position. XLP looks interesting and ready to go with IV quite low on these contracts. Will offset decay with META and NFLX PCs if there's a dip tomorrow

MSFT 7% V and MA. I put these in the same category, for obvious reasons. 8% PLTR 17% VOO and VTI 18% of my holdings. This used to be 60% of my portfolio but everything else grew so much faster. I'll need to renew my efforts at my old DCA strategy until this is back in the 50 or 60% range. WMT 6% My portfolio is admittedly in need of rebalancing. For example, I've held QCOM and AMT for quite a long time and I should sell off those positions and increase my position in VOO or VTI. Similarly I've opened small speculative positions in a wide variety of various stocks. Some of these are stagnant or haven't grown yet, and some of them have grown really well, and this growth has altered my ideal balance. The growth in MSFT and PLTR really altered my portfolio allocations My personal ideal balance for my portfolio is 60% VTI/VOO. 20% aggressive growth in tech/finance. 20% defensive stocks/utilities/staples. Back to the old boring DCA strategy I suppose.

Redfield11

Down 16ish YTD, sold at bottom, held SQQQ during Trump pause tweet, also about 30yrs from retirement. I bought back in about halfway up but im the same boat because of that SQQQ gamble. I am doing lile 60% safer (VTI, although a small SSO position), 10% gamble (SOXL), and 30% individual stocks (GOOG, WMT, LLY, UNH, BRK.B). In the long run it makes more sense to take your lumps and move forward like you're doing but for me im going to stress like a mo'fo trying to marginally outperform the market the next few mo tha to try to get back to breakeven for the year. Will let you know how horribly it goes, congrats on the wiser choice

No_Cow_8702

Ya. 171% vs 151% WMT wins again. Not even accounting for re-invested dividends.

TheNameOfMyBanned_

The Intel guy deleted his account, sadly. I remember all this unfolding and was glad I didn’t jump on the Intel bandwagon. There were some Intel bulls around here at one point but I think they all got slaughtered and fed to the market. Not gonna lie I almost did it too at one point. Not because I was betting against NVDA but I wanted to bet on the underdog. Like when WMT was destroying the competition on every level and DG was at an extremely low. Then I read about DG having lower exposure to Chinese Point, I bought DG stock and it paid off but the turnaround took like a year.

No_Cow_8702

JNJ is in the healthcare sector. It is a natural defense sector compared to a consumer staple (my mistake on the defensive for WMT as a consumer defensive, even tho in a way it actually is.) It was always come down to this. When your in a high inflation environment….. You shop at Walmart…. If its a recession….. You will still shop at Walmart.

ZookeepergameFalse38

It makes sense that the leaders in a sector are typically strong investments. I like BRK.B, WMT, LLY, JPM, XOM, WM & LMT.

No_Cow_8702

I mean, Im pretty sure WMT and Costco as consumer defensives will always have a premium attached to it. Same as people always buying Apple stock.

No_Cow_8702

Sure they can be competitive in the robotics space but it still doesn’t negate that there is competition in the space and WMT actually has drones that they have piloted in various places. Ill give you AWS but doesn’t prove that AMZN is not a shareholder friendly company.

No_Cow_8702

As a WMT shareholder myself I wont deny that AMZN has a better valuation. The fact of the matter is that at least WMT has done more for shareholders, even with their mass development and investment on their retail structure and strategy. Heck if TGT doesn’t get their act together WMT will start to take them out.

greenpride32

I've held AMZN for more than 5 years so that arbitrary cutoff point means little me; nothing to be honest. Good luck with WMT trading a higher multiple on less margin and half the top line growth.

phosphate554

This guy wants to buy $WMT at 42x earnings instead of $AMZN at 36x earnings. Be my guest. Both great companies, but one has a lower valuation and exponentially more growth ahead of it.

Happy_Discussion_536

Guess who wins. WMT and COST will crush the competition, pick up more market share.

Reasonable_Handle291

Not going to pretend I'm a co-equal in understanding the above, but from what I read, I was curious if this make sense to you or way too much delulu speculation: Based on the trend you identified, could July 9th be setting the Market ryhme with history? Assuming Tariffs go into effect and stay there after July 9th, would the surge in Tariff Tax revenue also show a surge in the "p" side of the equation for maybe a quarter or 2? Possibly followed by p/e ratio to crater (margin compression?) when due to this combination?: + companies hav to fork over Tariffs to to the Government + companies try to eat some of the Tariffs to stay competitive woth other companies (WMT) that can eat Tariffs easier + consumer finally feeling the pinch and overreact in scaling back on discretionary spending

No-Improvement3164

WMT HIMS GOOG. Let’s ride

YouAlwaysHaveAChoice

I know, I made a good bit on the AMZN gap up on Friday. But I’m betting that the turnaround is coming soon. Check my post history. I called the NVDA selloff a while back, the CVNA drop, literally called the last top back in February right before WMT earnings, and now I’m in MSFT puts. I don’t think it’ll be a huge drop like the tariff rout, but inflation is going to continue to rise into the summer. The constantly weakening dollar is making imports more and more expensive, on top of the tariffs. I also think oil is finding a bottom here and will turn higher shortly. A slightly softening labor market will not overshadow consistently rising inflation, and cuts will not be possible. How the market responds remains to be seen, but I think once the stagflation narrative really takes hold(July/August IMO), we are correcting.

Big-block427

I own 3 of those; COST, NFLX and WMT. I can’t foresee people canceling their Costco membership or Netflix subscriptions. WMT is playing in the AI space and it’s the grocer for America.

DapperSea9688

I mean I liquidated my brokerage and kept my 401Ks and mutual fund intact. Does hindsight make me wish I dumped money in and DCAd and all that good stuff? Sure but I made a great profit and I’ll just buy back in when my appetite is there. Until then I amped up my monthly allocation to my my mutual fund and they do a great job so it’s fine. So yeah you can’t time the market but I also didn’t want watch my Fidelity account continue to tank, and I got out at a good time where I sold as the cat was bouncing up and didn’t actually realize any losses. I’m sitting on about 108K in cash in my brokerage. I was also planning an out of state move so yeah my tolerance just wasn’t rock solid like it normally is I’m going to just buy some individual stocks and trickle feed SPY, feel it out kind of thing. TBH I’m so bullish on WMT you’d think I was Sam Walton himself so it’s fine there’s opportunity out there

WMT doin me dirty today.

DapperSea9688

I’m about 80% cash too but it was a combination of planning an out of state move (that fell through) at the same time the tariff bullshit started. So my appetite soured and I liquidated at a gain. If I held I’d be up a shit load of money, but I also could be down a shit load of money. At least know I can just aggressively DCA back in. I’m actually taking a new strategy too where I’m pushing more into my mutual fund than my brokerage account and just letting professionals manage it during these special times. And in my brokerage I’ll do some “fun picks” like I want to get back into WMT, things like that.

sell ITM covered calls on stocks I have no intention of keeping, start about 30 DTE. Buy stock, sell the calls maybe 2-3% below the current stock price giving you some room if it drops, if it goes up stock gets called away, you keep the $. One option is if the stock goes sideways buy back the earlier call after some time decay and sell calls at the same strike next month out. Have a position on WMT right now just like that --

And those impacted the most, coupled with those who did not deliver on earnings, have not recovered. We’re within spitting distance of ATH yet AAPL and AMZN have not recovered. WMT still 10-15% off. Small caps have stayed crushed. Others like GOOG still crushed for other reasons. Every new ATH comes after climbing a wall of worry. Every single one. But there’s been a clear leadership rotation and I’m here for it. Most of Mag7 is still going to crush earnings, financials are going to crush, software has been crushing it, industrials have been crushing it. What else are you supposed to be looking for. The economic conditions have potentially changed but so has the composition of the SP500 and how they make money

Waymo raised private funds late last year at $45b valuation. Remember now it's Alphabet as the parent company that owns the subsidiaries of Google and Waymo. Autonomous vehicle (AV) driving doesn't help society? It can drive day and night (assuming fuel/charge), day and night, day and night, without getting tired - can a human do that? AV driver has full 360 awareness of their surroundings, no blind spots. It doesn't need/want to drive aggressively and cut other cars off. AV driver is not distracted by a text, phone call, facetime, a cat/dog, good looking man/woman - it has a job to do and that's all it does and cares about. Do you think a human can be a safer driver? Because AV will drive at speed limit and not drive agressively, traffic will flow better and there will be less traffic and congestion. In commerical space, do you think UBER LYFT AMZN WMT TGT CART will have higher margin with human driver or AV driver for last mile delivery? There is also the company AUR working on AV freight.

Maybe AMZN and WMT say this to start the next round of negotiations with V and MC in a different place. “Knock .05 off or we try the stablecoin”

HitmanOnOppositeDay

CRCL was at the perfect place at the perfect time. It's probably the first time I've ever seen something like it after several years in the market. Delayed IPO by like almost 2 whole years, finally goes public during the most crypto friendly administration, state law passes stablecoins as legal federal tender, USDC out of all coins gets chosen to back treasuries and WMT and AMZN announce their own coins giving credibility that V and MA multi decade oligarchy can be disrupted. This all happened in LESS THEN 2 WEEKS SINCE THEIR IPO. Usually stock catalysts can take months or even years to play out so this is crazy. If you're looking long term at the company they are def capable of cutting out V and MA and carving out maybe a \~300B MC over two decades. However the run up has made it that other plays can make more gains over that time frame IMO. Also there is no guarantee that they succeed as V and MA will prob release their own coins to compete. Also remember that Tether still has first mover advantage with a representative actively working with the President's administration but I still think CRCL is more open book and better suited to getting legislatively recognized.

dimethylhyperspace

Played WMT OPEX like a fiddle

dimethylhyperspace

Depends on the stock. Watch WMT and NVDA

dimethylhyperspace

WMT put/call ratio is pretty offsides towards the short side. I have a theory that the stock will bounce between 3-4pm today as Market makers close their hedges. So I bought a few at the money calls

dimethylhyperspace

Fun fact for tommorrows OPEX..if you see a dramatic price spike or drop in the final hour of the day, that's likely the MMs closing their hedges. Typically the next Monday, the stock will reverse whatever that trend is as it was a false move. I'll be watching INTC, NVDA and WMT because they came up as having pretty skewed open interest for the June 20 strikes

dimethylhyperspace

Gotcha. So I'm using AI to look at stocks with high OI and what the max pain pin price is: For instance, WMT has a shit ton of puts and the max pain is at $71 a share..it's making me think, if the stock was to open a few dollars under that, would be buying calls a good strategy knowing that it's probably going to get pinned at 71 later in the day? Just a thought

Honey-Holic

I need WMT to go up

4BennyBlanco4

I don't have the foggiest about any of this but if AMZN, WMT, HD, COST etc had their own stablecoins would that not mean I need a different mechanism to shop at AMZN, WMT, HD, COST etc. whereas I could just use my Visa or Mastercard anywhere. So Visa and Mastercard remain far more convenient.

Pink_Squadron_Medic

Why are NKE WMT and TGT worried for tomorrow?

greenpride32

>just having a more efficient settlement system in it of itself doesn't necessarily mean they can replace the current legacy system just on that merit alone, right? I suggest you do some research on basic blockchain technology - maybe wiki will suffice. I think the picture becomes more clear if you have a better understanding. You don't need to build out a network, it already exists, the blockchains are public. The benefit to an AMZN or WMT is they don't need to pay a slice of every transaction to a V/MA/AXP/COF. There "cost" is to build a reserve/backing for the stablecoin, and build an interface to tranasct the stablecoin. These are more or less one time operations, that can be iterated on going forward. I don't think a company the size of LYV can really support a stablecoin, it needs to be a cash rich company.

Ellen_DegenitaIs

WMT finally done being gey

greenpride32

IMO - The benefits are more on the backend - specifically the use of blockchain. Transactions can be done immediately, on shared ledger and with immutable records. It's very easy to audit the transactions so it is perfect for anti-laundering. Sure you can maybe hide behind a digital identity for BTC. But any stablecoin usage would be able to tie you to an identity. Have an acocunt at WMT or AMZN? Add your stablecoin wallet as a payment option - they know who you are. It costs very little to maintain the stablecoin because it runs on public blockchain servers. The thread to MA and V is stablecoin could replace them or take market share for transactions. But it's an apples to oranges comparions after that. Credit cards are essentially loans that have short term 0% interest and longer term greater than zero rates. With stablecoin, once you've paid the transaction is done - it's as good as cash but done digitally.

UnfazedBrownie

The drop is a good pickup opportunity. The stable coin approach has been tried and already exists in a different form (see TGT red card as someone pointed out). If WMT or AMZN tried this, you need to keep in mind the level and difficulty of adoption. WMT has an app and could force you to use their stable coin to fund the purchase. But could this seriously lead to large adoption rates?

For WMT 0.5% of revenue is a few million dollars annually. $172 million if my math is correct. You could spend a lot of money to save $172 million annually.
