Bull case

Structural read: WMT is no longer a pure retailer trading on same-store sales - it is becoming a 3-engine compounder where low-margin grocery funds a high-margin ads + membership + marketplace stack. 4B run-rate (+27% YoY FY26), Vizio brings ~18M CTV households + SmartCast inventory, Walmart+ ~32M members.

Grocery share gains have accelerated as higher-income households (HHI >$100k) drive >50% of new market share - sticky once Walmart+ wraps them in.

- Advertising at ~$4-5B run-rate growing 25%+ scaling toward $15B+ multi-year (Vizio CTV + sponsored search)

- Grocery share gains from $100k+ HHI households; Walmart+ tethering them

- Sam's Club comp +6-7% trend with member income +13% YoY

- Automation rollout (~65% of fulfillment automated by 2026) lifting fulfillment cost-per-unit

- International (Flipkart, Walmex) optional re-rate when IPOs print

Bear case

- Consumer staples multiple already ~30x fwd P/E vs 10y avg ~22x - bar is high

- Tariff pass-through limited; gross margin compression risk if China tariffs escalate

- $AMZN advertising + grocery + Prime overlap intensifying

- Wage inflation + automation capex front-loaded; FCF conversion lumpy
