    From looking at all of the figures I can find reporting on it, I believe the $2.78 billion figure you have here is off by a factor of 10. I imagine that the shareholders would be screaming bloody murder if a company with over $100 Billion in revenue only had $3 billion in profit.

      I was going by their earnings report. It's entirely possible I missed a decimal place or something, but I just took another look at it and it seems right? (If I made a mistake it's a mistake I made twice, which I am fully capable of doing.)

      For a company that's selling commodities you can get dozens of other places, and that maintains a large retail footprint, that doesn't sound too far off base.
