Is Wal-Mart "Peanut Buttering" Itself?

The New York Times reports that Wal-Mart Trips as It Changes a Bit Too Fast.

And there's an analogy that was used to describe what's happened at Yahoo that came from a leaked internal memo that described Yahoo's attempts to be everything to everyone all the time as peanut butter being spread too thin.

Maybe that's what is happening with Wal-Mart. Or maybe people are fed up with the crap you have to put up with to get those low prices. I don't know but I like watching them stumble though I do not expect them to fall, they have far too much market momentum propelling them. $312 billion is a damned lot of money in sales.
