Can you provide me a list of all the other companies that are economic indicators?

No, I can't. You can probably Google that, though.

I just happen to know, like most people, that Walmart is the world's largest retailer, and close to 50% of Americans shop there.

Maybe they're just accounting for the illegals who won't be shopping anymore?

You hit the nail on the head. Poorer communities.
