What I like about Walmart: WMT has global diversification, a recession-proof profitable track record, steady growth, strong financial controls and makes a far "safer" investment, in my mind, than treasury bonds, notes or bills. What makes Walmart unsafe is that it is a stock, and stocks values can change dramatically in a short period of time. However, if you don't need your principle, and can just sit back and focus on the dividends, then you can take your mind OFF of the stock price. As soon as you do, then you can really see this stock for what it is and what it can mean for you over time. Keep your focus on the important things: the balance sheet, the income statement and the quarterly and annual reports, then you will be in a far better place than owning loans to the US Government which are paying you almost nothing (adjusted for taxes and inflation, you are losing money for sure).
