Wal-Mart's Price Battle Wages On, Vasquez Willing to Keep Slashing Prices (WMT,AMZN) - Zibb.com
Nov 19, 2009 (SmarTrend(R) News Watch via COMTEX) --
11/19/2009-A month after Wal-Mart (NYSE:WMT) shook the previously balanced equilibrium of the online retail book scene, which was led by Amazon.com (NASDAQ:AMZN), with its price battle, the company's online boss sent another message to competitors, You will not win.
According to a report form The Post, Walmart.com CEO Raul Vasquez said, " If they react and match our prices, we're going to continue to lower our prices."
The promise to competitors represents Wal-Mart's willingness to pick up the gloves and resume its price battle with Amazon.com or any other online retailer.
Vasquez said a few weeks ago, "If there is going to be a Wal-Mart on the Web, its going to be Walmart.com."
The Post added that even though Amazon.com currently holds the title with its $19.5 billion online business, Walmart.com seems to be catching up quick, growing at a faster rate this year by about 1.4%.

Wal-Mart Speeds Up Payment Process for Venders (WMT) - Zibb.com
Nov 14, 2009 (SmarTrend(R) News Watch via COMTEX) --
11/14/2009-Wal-Mart (NYSE:WMT) is offering its clothing vendors a quicker payment process that could change how struggling vendors and retailers operate together.
Wal-Mart told its 1,000 clothing vendors that they can be paid within 10-15 of dropping off the goods, a far cry from the customary 60-90 days before, but a Wal-Mart spokesman declined to say how much the suppliers must give up for a quicker payout.
The move comes in the wake of a CIT bankruptcy, leaving Wal-Mart to worry as to whether its suppliers will be able to get the necessary financing needed to fill orders.
