Walmart's Q4 Earnings and Stock Performance

Walmart Inc. was the Dow Jones Industrial Average's worst performer on Thursday, after the big-box retail chain forecast its first year-over-year drop in quarterly profit in three years. However, Wall Street analysts are not overly concerned with the guidance, as Walmart has a track record of beating expectations. Walmart's stock dropped 6.5% on Thursday but has seen significant growth over the past year. The company's core business remains strong, and it is well positioned to navigate uncertainties in the economy. Analysts maintain a positive outlook on Walmart's stock and its potential for growth in the retail market and digital advertising segment.
