NDW Spotlight Stock
WMT Walmart Inc. ($117.33) R - Retailing - WMT has a 4 for 5 TA rating and sits in the top third of the retailing sector RS matrix. The stock has maintained an RS buy signal against the market and its peers since 2024. The recent price action led WMT to post two consecutive buy signals before consolidating from all-time highs back toward the middle of its trading band. The long-term weight of the evidence remains decidedly positive while the near-term technical picture has shown consistent improvement. Exposure may be considered from $110 to the low $120s. Our initial stop will be positioned at $98, which would violate multiple support levels on the default chart. The bullish price objective of $151 will serve as our price target. Note that earnings are expected on 2/19.
