WMT

Garbage-Disposal-938

uh ... not sure if you're serious. a free market is not what we have. look at big tech. look how they hated DJT in 2015-2020. they thought he was pure evil. then they turned around and kissed his ass in January 2021. they helped pay for his inaugural. they're up there standing next to him now. why would they do that if they were actually titans in a "free market"? tech companies desperately need government approval, access, and contracts. they need to avoid anti trust lawsuits from the DOJ. not a free market. that's just one example. look at WBD/Netflix/Paramount. look at every defense contractor. look how tariffs have affected WMT, Amazon. look what happened to TikTok. look at bank bailouts after the GFC. look what the admin did when a Japanese steel company offered to buy US Steel.

Bought last Wednesday at 10am after it dipped. As for why—idk I like scalping WMT calls

Happy-Champion1661

why did you buy WMT weeklies? Genuine question did you pick these up at open?

No-Improvement3164

WMT is now a Tech company and CAT is an AI/Energy company. So difficult to keep up with the ever changing times

cherry_blossom_7471

Since it is in the money and you have until September yes. I have calls for jan 2027 110. If I recall correctly WMT has earnings next month. The only downside is mango with his tarrif unpredictability. Also with news of WMT partnering with GOOG using ai searches and the news of walmart using drones as delivery should boost their e-commerce more and ecom is already a huge money maker for them with the whole shop in app and pickup at store instead of having to go inside. Pickup orders have been doing nothing but increasing for walmart and ive been bullish on Walmart for years it’s all i scream about in this hell hole. 50 shares @ 35.49 and holding those forever

glassman0918

When do I take the money and run? I have a sept. Call for WMT. Im up 1500. Do I say yay and run or is that paper handing it? Im pretty new to options and haven't had great luck in the past.

so WMT is now an AI company? cool

WMT hits new ATH yet again. As prices continue to rise, WMT, AMZN and COST will crush all the competition.

WMT is entering QQQ today.

dvdmovie1

"MAG7 stocks with highest weight in AMZN" This has become such a crowded default option for people and with everything going on elsewhere in tech I don't know why Mag 7 has become "collect em all" vs the one or two that someone has the strongest thesis for. I'd rather #2 out of your options - although I'm not crazy about VRT. I did very well with VRT starting at the end of 2023 but "market is basically just the mag 7 right now anyway." META, MSFT, AMZN and AAPL underperformed the S and P over the last year. WMT outperformed all four of these names in the last year.

Outrageous_Tip_2133

The big news this week will be the Supreme Court verdict on tarrifs. Who benefits from reversal? COST, AMZN, WMT? if we get a decent broad market selling tomorrow, may be a good idea to get calls on some of the tarrif-related retail names.

TheSixthNonsense

I trust you can recognize the difference between "NDX excludes financials & overweighs tech" and "NDX is a tech exclusive index." I named the two companies from the top of my head because they are in the consumer sector (not just non-tech,) with COST being a close peer to WMT. So yes, I'm battled when people ask "is WMT a tech company now"?

toydan

because $WMT said to get out tf outta the way? https://preview.redd.it/gd42w4h76jcg1.jpeg?width=1051&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4d10018d92b15a9630a4e8138311faa71efdaa94

WMT is the biggest importer. However... there's little evidence that the government can refund the people that paid the tariffs. Why? Because of the way tariffs have been collected. This is especially true for small businesses. Shippers started demanding tariff payments up front. If you paid your supplier for shipping, the supplier paid the tariffs on your behalf. Who gets the refund? The foreign supplier that paid the shipper, or the US customer who owed the tariffs?

Once the tariffs get shot down tomorrow, bulls need to be ready with their wands to cast regardiam leviosa… just like Hermoine “full bush” Granger. Get calls on AMZN, NKE, COST, WMT Don’t be a Panican and buy puts

AMZN and WMT will go parabolic tomorrow if tariffs are struck down.

The issue with Target is primarily trade downs that started 3-4 years ago. Look at the last WMT earnings presentation: "Broad-based share gains across income brackets led by upper-income households." "What did worry me though was Ulta beauty announcing that they were ending their long term partnership with Target," There has been a lot of discussion that Ulta areas were inadequately staffed. "“Staffing needs, loyalty program synergies, shrink, and [return on invested capital] were likely key considerations,” TD Cowen analysts said in a Thursday note shared with Retail Dive, which also referenced “conscious uncoupling.” Target has been tackling out of stock issues more generally since the Ulta partnership debuted in 2021. Similar to other mass retailers dealing with theft, Target also increased its use of locked merchandise, including beauty products, since the partnership began. The locking up of merchandise to prevent shrink had become a point of frustration for Target shoppers, per comments from GlobalData Managing Director Neil Saunders last year." (https://www.retaildive.com/news/target-downgrade-ulta-partnership-ending/757758/) "My continued faith in the company stems mainly from the fact that girls have always loved Target" They loved other Becky index holding Starbucks, too and that's below where it was in 2019. Target is capable of turning things around but it won't happen overnight. I don't know what changes the current environment that is the core reason of why it's where it is. 2-3 years ago WMT didn't think all the trading down would be sustained but it's only continuing; at what point for these people does shopping at WMT become more ingrained? Or people can order from AMZN or look for value at COST. If there was a recession (which I don't see imminently, but if) TGT is going lower.

hepukesyoudie

Uber gains, Sofi gains, NKE loss, WMT Gain, Serv Gain. 2026 looking good so far.

TradingMomentum

Not financial advice, but as a starting point I would personally look at my 401k as more core index diversified investments. seems like at 26 this will be the bulk of my foundation / base. $10k now and I assume over years new money will be added over time. assuming brokerage is like \~20% of your portfolio, i personally would be ok taking additional risk via individual stocks. Would probably just buy like 4-5 big company stocks i liked and just hold. I would probably mix it up with WMT, GOOGL, NVDA, JPM, etc. Assuming i'm a big believer in this AI movement, maybe i'll add a higher volatility stock like CRWV or something. (stocks are just for example purposes).

Original-Fish-6861

I think MSFT would give you the best return. Another good one not mentioned would be WMT.

kickinwood

Yup! Haven't made the mistake of bailing like I did with most of ASTS. It does make my portfolio wonky as all hell as day to day swings can hinge on RKLB despite my having put far more into VOO and others. Up 8k today, for instance. Being down the same is something I've seen as well. Because of that, I try to track the other investments and ignore RKLB. It's just something I spent 5k on and we'll see where it is upon retirement. Was really lucky, and owe it to Reddit, strangely enough. My other investments are tame with some swings here and there. VOO, VFIFX, GOOGL, AMZN, BRKB, WMT, etc. Recent swings were a couple hundred shares of SOFI and POET. CPRN has a really good dividend yielding preferred stock that I feel safe about for the next decade or so. But I'm just a guy with a high school diploma and nothing else, so I'm far from having any expertise. I didn't even start investing outside of my 401k until I was 40. That was 3 years ago, and the market has been kind. I'm expecting to watch it drop similarly before I retire, but as long as it doesn't plummet beyond what I've put in, I feel a lot better than when I was just putting extra into my savings for 20 years.

IDrinkSulfuricAcid

Excluding ETFs, my picks to hold for 20 years would be: GOOGL, JPM, LLY, WMT, XOM.

fuckthis_job

I think you'd be better off betting on specific companies as opposed to the market as a whole. I personally like AMZN, WMT, W, LULU, and NKE

DECK, CAT, NKE, WMT, DE, COST and all semi stocks

Beneficial_Passage_8

It stands to reason that if tariffs are overturned, importers would benefit significantly. This includes retailers like Walmart (WMT), Best Buy (BBY), as well as tech stocks like Apple (AAPL), Intel (INTC) and Nvidia (NVDA). Similarly, domestic manufacturing like Nucor steel (NUE) and United States Steel (X) would suffer from this ruling. Others I think will vary over time. For example, Caterpillar (CAT) might suffer initially since they manufature in the US, but they might gain long term due to lower capital overhead.

ThinkingOfTheOldDays

WMT should be down more with the rest of the staples imo. short / put candidate for january

wjonagan

Seconding KO and WMT especially. Both are solid picks that tend to hold up even when everything else is going sideways. I'd also say don't sleep on PEP if you're already comfortable with KO - similar stability but gives you a bit more diversification since they're also big in snacks. The dividend aristocrats list is honestly a great starting point for anyone who doesn't want to stress about their holdings. These companies have been paying and increasing dividends through multiple recessions at this point. Not the most exciting picks but sometimes boring is exactly what you want in your portfolio

vegetto712

Do it, I’m up big by DCA $WMT over the last 5yrs in the associate stock plan.

Sea-Independent-759

Never change. Keep that 6% contribution, increase it annually by 1%. Buy every dollar of WMT at 15% off you can afford. I’m in finance. I wish I had received the small advice I just gave you when I was young.

ouchywahwah

WMT is a very good stock to own. Great hedge when tech takes a dip. I think of Walmart as America’s Store.

dealchase

I own a small amount of WMT (Walmart) stock in my portfolio and I am thinking of increasing my position in the company. If you're getting matched contributions from Walmart I would personally go for it although ultimately that is up to you. Walmart is a solid company and is known to consistently increase revenue and earnings in both the boom times and recessions.

legible_print

Really want to rotate into things like AMZN or AAPL, along with WMT + TGT + AVGO + WM, but holy shit do these things move slow. Steady, sure. But slow AF.

pmotiveforce

AMZN is the only real company that will make money later this year because they sell real shit to real people. Also WMT. But people pumping money into fake internet money and AI shitcos, lol.

yes2matt

If you value moat and vertical integration GOOG(L) and WMT ought to appear on your list.

LetMePushTheButton

This is what I like to call my “buy Evil” strategy. Add some REITs and PLTR - maybe TSLA if you’re feeling edgy. WMT and META too maybe. johnson and johnsons, dupont, saudi aramco, BP for sure make the list. Many of these companies have so much public subsidies or some kind of support built into them - like they’re not allowed to fail or some BS.

Outrageous_Tip_2133

I wouldn't wait till the ruling. Just buy calls now for 3 months out. SC ruling will likely come in late January or February. People will start piling into calls into COST, AMZ, WMT as SC ruling gets closer.

BasicZombie2714

not sure about booze, but I think consumer/retail is oversold. People are acting like the sky is falling and we're headed for some middle class die out where everyone is in the bread lines at WMT and Costco. Maybe one day, but i still see stores like LULU and TGT full of middle class women.

jamesbrownscrackpipe

Mostly tech, NVDA, GOOGL, AAPL, AMZN, TSM, SOUND, AVGO. I also own a good bit of COST, PG, and WMT.

Redfield11

I would probably hold something conservative until after the drop post-Fed chair announcement but I panic sold in April and am only up 9% this year so playing catch-up and hoping GOOG, PL, WMT, and POET can keep me slowly cruising back to even with market

Zthruthecity

I got 80% gains in CCL, roughly the same in WMT, 42% with NVDA, and 50% in just two weeks with Intel. I also got market gains since I primarily invest in the SP500. Solid trades this year!

BeneficialQuality899

WMT is better

I am definitely shoe shine boy material. From what I see China holds majority of Silver globally and although the rest of the world, including the US is ramping up mining, we're not catching up anytime soon. As we've been witnessed to with equities and crypto, very large players can manipulate the market. What I'm saying (and could always be wrong) is that I expect those forces to drive down prices significantly to flush out individual investors before price continues upward. Commodity supercycles tend to run for years and we're still not out of year one. There is definitely nothing wrong with diversification and we might as well do it with metals and miners. I still own companies like NVDA, AVGO, PLTR, WMT, LLY, etc.. along with some crypto and cash. What I've noticed the last quarter of the year especially there's been quite a few days where I've been greatful for gold and silver gains keeping my investments balanced. Best of luck.

I gradually got there the more I learned and the more confidence I gained in the company. I started off with about $20k on ASTS and $20k with WMT last year, then gradually bought more ASTS until it became my 100% holdings now at $250k. I'm holding until 2027.

I was mildly excited when he took over. Disclosure: used to have major involvement with Amazon, 24 hour direct “president’s office” access which didn’t mean Bezos himself, but a team of about 10 who were direct to him or 2ICs. I observed Bezos had fully checked out for years before it was official, and how service and strategy went down the drain. Reached a point where we severed a huge relationship with them cold turkey. When Jassy was finally named I imagined he might come into his own. Sometimes these key subordinates are the true genius behind someone like Bezos, and Jassy’s sphere of responsibility had done well. Oof. Even after a lot of time he never really delivered anything positive. As anyone can see, AWS hasnt been able to outrun viable competition anymore. And the retail has turned to dreck. Amazon is a third party marakesh bazaar of questionable and counterfeit goods and has an untrustworthy chain for the stuff they sell as their own. Their white label product is in degradation. The site is ad cancer and search is too grossly manipulated to be useful for consumers. I’d say they’ve done Ok on logistics, but it’s fairly obvious to customers that it’s now about costs and no longer customer delight. Amazon used to inspire, now it’s just kind of a megalith. What I was seeing with amazon combined with a couple other clues is what got me into WMT at a beneficial time.

Don’t chase hot. Chase consistent. “Past performance isn’t indicative of future results” except it mostly is. KO, CAT, AAPL, AMZN, WMT, WFC. Don’t over complicate it. Research companies that you already know about with products you already buy. Look for companies with consistent returns, decent cash flow, and consistent or increasing dividends.
