Good morning! It’s Daniel de Visé with your Daily Money.

A boycott against Walmart and its affiliated stores is underway this week as some consumers protest what they call corporate greed, targeting companies that have rolled back their diversity, equity and inclusion efforts under President Donald Trump.

The boycott was organized by The People's Union, the same grass-roots group that coordinated the one-day economic consumer blackout on Feb. 28. Here are the details.
