I can't help this.... Hey, fake finance degree: How is that "real math" treating you? Retiring on your Walmart profits? What profits exactly? Dividends? The bogus assumption of 1Trillion in value, or the amazing stock performance over the last couple of years. Target is actually looking pretty strong, WMT not so much.

What? Walmart didn't blow out expectations? Target didn't suck? Who won????
ajoq - You pretty much missed his point entirely.
I guess I don't know if you think Target is stock A or B but what I know is that a company with 1 trillion in sales is worth a lot more than a company that will go out of business. There is only so much room and Target does not have the scale, they were too late. Please buy as much Target as you would lke, I'm retiring soon on my Walmart profits.
Your assumptions are well, simplistic: http://ci.columbia.edu/ci/premba_test/c0332/s6/s6_4.html
7jpz, well....I do have a finance degree and those are the approximate numbers for revenue based on real math...so let me know what you don't understand. Maybe you believe in unicorns?
7pzb: please take a finance class or two and get back to us.
Okay, neither of them had great success. At this pace of 2% revenue groth for next 35 years target revenue grows to about 150B..walmart to about 1T, I go with Walmart as winning the battle of the losers.
OP. You really have your finger on the pulse.
