LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) -- Wal-Mart Stores Inc., the world's largest retailer,
lowered its sales forecast for August, citing slow back-to-school sales and the
effects of Hurricane Charley. Its shares fell nearly 2 percent.
Wal-Mart had previously expected same-store sales to grow between 2 percent and
4 percent during the month. It advised Monday that the sales will range from
flat to up 2 percent versus a year ago.
