Bearish on Walmart (WMT) as of 2026-10-24.
At approximately $120 and 42.2× earnings, investors are already paying for successful expansion in advertising, marketplace, membership, fulfillment, and automation. Walmart’s scale, grocery traffic, omnichannel network, 16.9% ROIC, and 22% ROE support a durable moat and low risk of permanent business impairment. The principal risk is therefore overpayment, not business failure.
