isn't the whole "walmart cycle" of "aggressively undercut local businesses until a monopoly has been established, then increase prices once you have control of the market" pretty well-established at this point? you're phrasing the two halves of that cycle as if it's supposed to be some sort of a contradiction.

Applies to Amazon too nowadays.

no actually walmart has been keepign their prices low. thats paritally why they took a massive stock hit in may. (same with target).

guess its just a coincidence that they chose now to do it. and not 2017
