The Business News Headlines 16 May 2024

Just yesterday we predicted that today would be big for Walmart.  And, it was. That story kicks things off today as the nation's largest retailer had two great things going for it. Meanwhile if you want to reach out to us on Social Media you can hook up with us all day on Twitter or "X" @IOB_NewsHour and on Instagram. Facebook? Sure were there too.  Here's what we've got for you today:

• Walmart and its big beautiful day;
• Aldi is lowered prices on 250 items;
• Consumers get a win at the Supreme Court;
• A stunning AP report on prison labor;
• McDonald's and a new $5 menu and why;
• Some new pot news for you;
• The Wall Street Report;
• And, some good housing news...maybe.

Thanks for being here!
