Walmart
On Tuesday, Wall Street expects Walmart Inc (NYSE:WMT) to deliver solid third-quarter results. However, increased margin pressure could prevent the company from issuing strong guidance in Q4, meaning the most wonderful time of the year, the holiday quarter could come short of estimates.

The largest U.S. home improvement retailer, The Home Depot (NYSE:HD) has gained nearly 40% year to date, and better than expected results could send its stock to new all-time highs.
Target
Still speaking of big retailers, Target Corporation (NYSE:TGT) will be looked upon as a proxy of consumers' propensity to spend ahead of the most important quarter of the year defined by holiday shopping. Investors will also be looking for updates about shipping delays and supply chain disruptions to which not even the largest retailers are immune.
Cisco
On Wednesday after close, Wall Street wants to see proof that Cisco Systems Inc (NASDAQ:CSCO) is capable of shifting its business model quickly from selling routers to growth areas to offset revenue declines in its legacy segments.
