Stocks to Sell: Walmart (WMT)

Wal-Mart Stores Inc. (WMT) posted earnings that encouraged some on Wall Street lately. However, with shares still down about 30% this year, it’s premature to say the company is in recovery mode.

After all, Warren Buffett just sold about 7% of his stake in WMT stock based on the latest Berkshire Hathaway filings. And furthermore, while Walmart topped forecasts, this is coming after the company changed guidance twice already this year, cutting forecasts in October after a previous forecast reduction in August alongside poor Q2 numbers.

Who does Walmart think it is, telling us it is “raising” its full-year forecast to $4.50 to $4.65 per share from the latest forecasts of $4.40 to $4.70? Back in January, a mere nine months ago, it had forecast $4.70 to $5.05 in earnings. How is this an increase in guidance less than a year after having a higher target?

Beyond stagnant revenue and pressure on profits, Walmart is stuck in a technical downtrend after literally having its worst day ever in October with a single-day decline of about 10%.

Throw in a huge cash burn as WMT wastes $20 billion on buybacks and another $35 billion across three years on capital expenditures … and, well, you have to wonder what investors have to look forward to in the near term.

Well-Known Stocks to Skip: Walmart (WMT)

In most of the United States it is hard to drive very far without seeing a Walmart (WMT) sign.

WMT stock is one of the great growth stories of the 20th century, but unfortunately we are now in the 21st century.

Today, Walmart is a stable company that is not only facing competition from brick-and-mortar retailers like Target (TGT) but strong competition from Amazon (AMZN).

The consensus analyst opinion is for the company grow by less than 2% over the next five years, and I would have to have a heavily discounted price to even consider buying WMT stock.

Walmart is not grossly overvalued at about 13 times earnings, but it’s not cheap either. The company is buying back a lot of stock to reduce the share count and grow earnings and I think that will turn out to be a mistake on the part of management.

If you have owned since 1990 and have huge gains I would not be a seller, but I see no reason to buy it now.

A STRONG START TO 2016 FOR THIS WORLD DOMINATOR

The World Dominator of retail isn't going away any time soon...

Longtime readers know investing in World Dominators is one of the best, safest strategies for long-term investing success. These businesses sport thick profit margins, consistent cash flows, and relentlessly raise their dividends. Their brand recognition and customer loyalty often make them the No. 1 companies in their industry.

Wal-Mart (WMT) is the world's largest retailer. It has around 11,500 stores in nearly 30 countries. It sells everything from baby clothes to groceries... and it sells them cheap. And like most World Dominators, Wal-Mart constantly finds ways to beat the competition by opening more distribution centers and improving its online presence. The company is even testing drones to improve shipping times.

The stock had a rough 2015, dropping more than 30% from January to November on concerns of shrinking profit margins. But shares have climbed steadily ever since, rising 15% since December. The trend is UP for one of the best businesses in the world...
