Wal-Mart Stores

Wal-Mart Stores is among the world’s largest HyperMarkets and Super Centers sector businesses in the world. Wal-Mart Stores’s employees generate $11.495B in profits on $355.384B of revenue. Global output in the HyperMarkets and Super Centers business will likely rise substantially over the next 10 years. Long-term economic growth may lift all boats, but Wal-Mart Stores is determined to remain a market leader. Sectoral leadership in the HyperMarkets and Super Centers segment takes dedication and consistency, but management seeks out-sized growth.

Wal-Mart Stores’s ticker symbol WMT has recently been trading near $48.30 a share. The Wal-Mart Stores corporate headquarters in Bentonville AR predicts HyperMarkets and Super Centers profits will satisfy shareholders in search of risk-appropriate returns.

The significance of market volume is sometimes ignored, but with a total market capitalization of $198.454B ensures sufficient liquidity. With a beta of 0.08, the company is less volatile than the market as a whole. When the average equity moves lower, Wal-Mart Stores moves less aggressively.
