Target (TGT) & Walmart (WMT) Have ‘Similar Storyline’ But Different Execution

Amanda Lai breaks down Target (TGT) and Walmart (WMT) ahead of earnings. She sees a “similar storyline” for both companies, with consumers pulling back on consumer discretionary purchases as tariffs hit the same products. She also talks about their PR strategies and thinks Target is in a “tough spot” where it can’t make anyone happy. Walmart, she argues, has diversified its revenue streams further and moved into services, creating a “more comprehensive system.” Amanda also looks at the risks Amazon (AMZN) poses to both.
