Costco, Walmart, and Target: The Best Retail Stock Plays?

Costco, Walmart, and Target: The Best Retail Stock Plays?

Target (TGT), Walmart (WMT), and Costco (COST) have been adjusting their businesses to offer convenience and value as the threat of Amazon (AMZN) continues. During its fiscal first quarter, its digital sales rose 66%, while comps, excluding fuel, increased 1.4%. Walmart and Target have both significantly ramped up their e-commerce businesses trying to match the services of Amazon.
