Here Are the Masters of the New Retail Universe
Catchphrases like the "Death of Retail!" or the "Retail Apocalypse!" have been flying all over the media for around a decade now. Whales like Amazon and Walmart have been crushing the competition since way, way before the coronavirus upended life and commerce around the world.
Just take a look at this exchange-traded fund. I've been talking about it in my Markets Livestream because it's returned almost 5% this year. I'm talking about the ProShares Decline of the Retail Store ETF. And get this: It's trading under the ticker EMTY.
The name and ticker say it all, but still… Ouch. Someone on Wall Street has an edgy sense of humor…
In 2019, more than 9,300 store closings were announced, and the COVID-19 pandemic promises to eclipse that grim record. I'm reading now that Cushman & Wakefield estimate a whopping 12,000 big chain stores could fold in 2020.
Look – it would be unfair to lay all of this at the feet of Amazon and Walmart; for retailers, business conditions can be fluid at the best of times, and the COVID-19 pandemic has been absolutely brutal for most of the consumer spending-driven U.S. economy.
So the big players have clearly cemented their positions. But here's the thing: They're not the only game in town. Nor is all retail dead – not by a longshot.
It's just that, to use an "SAT word," retail has almost completely bifurcated; there are now two separate retail sectors emerging.

Our Top Retail Stock to Buy as the Trade War Resolves
Retail stocks saw some of their biggest 2019 losses in just the last couple of months.
But our top retail stock is on the brink of a huge catalyst. Growth in the retail sector slowed year over year this past August.
Sales increased by only 0.6%, compared to the 4.1% year-over-year increase the same time last year.
Some will chalk this downtrend to increased competition from digital retailers like Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN).
And there might be some evidence to support that brick-and-mortar is in danger.
But our best retail stock pick puts that to bed.

This Retail Stock Is Poised for a 92% Rebound
Predicting which retail stock will bounce back tricky in today's environment. But we have a secret weapon that tells us when a stock is about break out in the coming months.
It's called the Money Morning Stock VQScore™ system. This proprietary algorithm tracks 1,500 of the most profitable companies in the world and assigns them a score from 1 to 4.9.
The score is derived from a deep dive into the company's EPS and demand for the underlying stock.
Any stock that scores 4 or higher means EPS is accelerating and demand for its underlying shares is increasing.
This means it's a "Strong Buy" and is likely to break out in the months ahead.

Will Walmart Sell Cannabis in 2019?
Now that cannabis is increasingly legal across North America, even Walmart Inc. (NYSE: WMT) could be selling it soon.
If you're surprised, it's no wonder. After all, Walmart started in Arkansas, and retains conservative roots.
But in addition to having stores throughout the United States, Walmart also has 400 stores throughout Canada. And Canada, of course, recently made marijuana completely legal.
