Walmart is primarily known as a brick-and-mortar powerhouse — offering consumers a variety of goods across apparel, consumer electronics, produce, home remedies, and much more. While that might not sound too different from stores like Target or CVS, Walmart’s main value proposition is its attractive prices. Cost-conscious shoppers tend to gravitate toward stores such as Walmart during periods underscored by rising prices or economic uncertainty. President Trump’s new tariffs could cause prices to rise for consumers and induce a period of slowing economic growth. Right now, there are only seven public companies that are trading at a market capitalization north of $1 trillion. The exclusive list of trillion-dollar stocks includes Apple, Microsoft, Nvidia, Amazon, Alphabet, Meta Platforms, and Berkshire Hathaway.The next largest company after those referenced above is retail specialist Walmart (WMT -0.89%). With a market value of approximately $760 billion, Walmart is the most valuable non-pure-play technology business on the planet besides Berkshire.
