Key takeaways
- Percent change on the WMT quote compares the latest price with the previous close, not the day's open.
- Volume counts the number of shares traded in the session, not the dollar value of those trades.
- Period tabs and return rows exclude dividends, so a holder's total return is higher when the stock pays one.
- A 3-for-1 split in February 2024 means split-adjusted charts show pre-2024 prices at one third of their traded level.
The Walmart stock price is the latest trade in Walmart Inc. shares under the ticker WMT. Each quote carries a timestamp and source, and outside regular trading hours it reflects the last close, not a live trade.
How to read the WMT quote
- Percent change compares the latest price with the previous close, not with the day’s open.
- Day range is the low and high traded during the current session. 52-week range is the same idea over the past year, which shows where the current price sits within its recent extremes.
- Volume is the number of shares traded in the session. It counts shares, not dollars.
- Exchange shows NMS, the code for the Nasdaq Global Select Market.
- The period tabs (1D to 2Y) and the return rows measure price change only. They exclude dividends, so a holder’s total return on investment is higher than these figures when the stock pays one.
What Walmart is and what moves the stock
Walmart is the largest U.S. retailer by revenue. It operates Walmart U.S., Sam’s Club and an international segment, with grocery a large share of sales. Its fiscal year ends January 31, so its quarter labels run ahead of the calendar.
Several things tend to drive the share price:
- Quarterly earnings, where investors focus on comparable (same-store) sales, e-commerce growth and operating profit.
- Guidance, which can move the stock as much as results do. A weaker outlook can push shares down even after a solid quarter.
- Valuation and analyst views, including ratings changes and price targets.
- Consumer conditions such as inflation, wages and spending on essentials. Rivals like Amazon also matter.
- Index flows, because WMT is a component of the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500.
Dividends and splits
Walmart pays a quarterly cash dividend and has raised it every year for more than five decades. A 3-for-1 stock split took effect in February 2024. Price charts are normally split-adjusted, so pre-2024 prices appear one third of their original traded level.
