3 Reasons For Walmart Stock to Go Up

walmart stock chart

We are actively watching Walmart stock for a couple of reasons and think it is undervalued and could climb higher. In recent years, Amazon has taken a huge market share from Walmart. However, Walmart has pushed back with its online ordering system and free 2 day shipping that is winning back some customers. The second reason we are looking at Walmart is because of slowing economy. We think consumers will look to purchase more there than other stores if the economy slows. Lastly, Walmart shares show a correctional decline of 4.7% from the 52-week high of November 14, which they previously updated amid the publication of a strong report for Q3 of fiscal 2020. Adjusted earnings per share of USD 1.16 and comparable sales growth of 3.2% exceeded market expectations. However, revenue of USD 127.99 billion did not meet market expectations, but this was offset by an increase in online sales by 41% (YoY) and an increase in the forecast for the current fiscal year. During the previous week, Walmart shares dropped by 0.42%. S&P500 went up by 0.89% within the same period.
