Target is a non player next to walmart
So what? Anybody remotely aware of economics knows each Target store competes with each Walmart in a given area. That person would also know Walmart was built on the backs of closed small American businesses and Chinese crap, which they EXPRESSLY denied they would ever do when the Walton family started the business. Target's distribution chain doesn't use intimidation like Walmart does but has tighter control over it to control their retail prices. Therefore, what I said is as true today as it was yesterday....Walmart can't allow prices to escalate due to the Trump tariffs and keep market share from being lost to Target.
