I know that there is a lot of criticism “out there” about Wal-Mart, and I agree with a lot of it, I think that they should allow the labor unions to come in. I don’t think that they treat their employees as well as they should.
That being said, with the economy and gas prices being as bad as they are, I think that Wal-Mart stock will probably go up because I think that more people will be shopping there out of necessity. Wal-Mart is fairly consistently lower in price than most of their competitors. As people struggle more to make ends meet I think that they will turn to Wal-Mart more to help them save money.
