MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

Walmart
Bull Case

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Walmart:

Walmart's stock is currently trading around $102.90, reflecting a stable position in the market, which may attract investors looking for reliable stocks.
The company has received multiple "outperform" ratings from analysts, indicating strong confidence in its future performance and potential for growth.
Walmart's diverse business model includes retail, wholesale, and eCommerce, allowing it to capture a wide range of consumer spending and adapt to market changes.
Recent analyst reports suggest a positive outlook, with price targets set as high as $118.00, indicating potential for significant appreciation in stock value.
Walmart's strong market capitalization of approximately $820.41 billion positions it as a leader in the retail sector, providing stability and resilience against market fluctuations.

Walmart
Bear Case

Investors should be bearish about investing in Walmart for these reasons:

Insider selling has been observed, with executives selling a total of 151,232 shares recently, which may raise concerns about the company's future prospects.
The company's current ratio is 0.79, indicating that it may have difficulty meeting short-term liabilities, which could be a red flag for potential investors.
Walmart's price-to-earnings ratio of 38.68 suggests that the stock may be overvalued compared to its earnings, which could deter value-focused investors.
Despite a strong market presence, Walmart faces intense competition from both traditional retailers and eCommerce platforms, which could impact its market share and profitability.
The company's beta of 0.67 indicates lower volatility compared to the market, which may not appeal to investors seeking high-risk, high-reward opportunities.
