re WMT

Unless WMT is actively hedging their currency risk, they may get hit pretty hard by the falling US buck, since they are importers rather than exporters. Don't they get almost all of their merchandise from China?

WMT will just raise their prices. Their competition will do the same, since it will affect them the same way. I would venture the guess that WMT supply chain will cope better with price increases than their competitors. Where else will their customers go to get a better deal?
