Yep, slow and steady, wmt and Costco are makin bacon man.

Huge WMT news just now out. Walmart is getting into the very profitable HEALTH business in a VERY big way. Huge.

Good point and I know that they are working on it. Yes - the website needs to be upgraded.

Totally agree. Any stock price for WMT below $70.00 per share is a gift. Huge.

a good buy below $55

imo

Walmart headquarters is gearing up for some massive growth. This whole town is a construction site.

time to buy here imo

Walmart should revamp their horrible website. Everything else is great but Amazon relies on their website so why can't Walmart when they have retail outlets as well? They could crush Amazon. If they had a similar website this could be trading over $230+

More than just groceries: Now Walmart is selling its software
Walmart ($WMT) isn’t just selling groceries and clothes anymore — it’s also selling software to logistics giants. The company now offers its Route Optimization tool, which helps businesses map efficient delivery routes. It saved Walmart over $90M in a year as part of a surprising embrace of SaaS (“software as a service”).
Walmart’s move into software marks a diversification strategy, as the retail giant aims for faster-growing businesses and higher profit margins, as reported by Bloomberg.
The introduction of Route Optimization, Store Assist, and its AI-powered search also positions Walmart as a first-mover in AI — boosting efficiency for both shoppers and retailers.
Thinking beyond retail: Earlier this month, Walmart acquired Vizio ($VZIO) in an effort to enter the connected TV space. Walmart sees significant profit potential in this area, particularly through advertising across its properties. Last year, its ad business grew by 28% to $3.4B — a far cry from Walmart’s retail numbers but indicating a promising segment that should grow in the coming years.

LOL There is an old saying, “you can pick your friends, and you can pick your nose, but you can’t pick your friends nose”.

Sir, you can’t pick your nose much less a stock price

IMHO When WMT steady growth.

Walmart Starts Its Electric Semi Truck Transformation
7 days ago

The Freightliner eCascadia can travel 400 kilometers (250 miles) on a full charge. Each truck will travel approximately 110,000 kilometers (68,350 miles) each year. That’s a lot of driving, and at lower fuel and operational costs, that should mean a lot of financial savings.

Walmart intends to electrify 100% of its fleet.
