Pairs Trade - Walmart is turning up while Target is rolling over

Long
NYSE:WMT   Walmart Inc.
4
It's TIME to make the switch:

Target is rolling over and Walmart is turning the corner.

Time to Sell (Short) Target and
Time to Buy (Go Long) Walmart

Time frame for this trade: 1-3 months, if profitable, then maybe hold 6-9 months.

Walmart has been beaten down by higher self-inflicted labor costs (raising the minimum wage on itself) and a soft economic environment. Well, that same soft environment applies to Target. It looks like the MOMENTUM OUT of Walmart and INTO Target has finally faded and it's time to reverse the trade.

These stocks don't stay "separated" forever.
