Big-box shocker out of Vermont

Vermont is asking large retailers to comply with an order to stop sales of all “non-essential” items in order to cut down on store traffic.

While Vermont isn’t a huge sales contributor for the retail industry, the development could be significant for Walmart (NYSE:WMT), Target (NYSE:TGT), Costco (NASDAQ:COST), Best Buy (NYSE:BBY), Home Depot (NYSE:HD), Lowe’s (NYSE:LOW) and other big-box chains if more states go down a similar path.
