Walmart (WMT) has shown resilience despite economic challenges. Recent news highlights include a top rating from Validea's Quantitative Momentum Investor model, indicating strong fundamentals and valuation in the retail grocery sector. However, consumer spending pressures and weaker guidance for 2025 have impacted investor sentiment, leading to a stock price decline.
Walmart's stock is currently trading at $85.97, near the Fibonacci support level of $84.32. The RSI of 35 suggests the stock is oversold, indicating a potential rebound. The MACD is bearish, but the stock is approaching a support level, which might trigger a short-term rally.
Based on the oversold RSI and proximity to support, Walmart's stock is expected to rise slightly to around $87 in the next trading week. The stock presents a buying opportunity, but caution is advised due to broader economic uncertainties.
Prediction: The stock price of WMT is expected to be around $87.
Recommendation: Buy.
