Stock Movers

Walmart Slips on Outlook, Blue Owl Tumbles, Alphabet Rises


Listen Later

Today's biggest winners and losers in the stock market.

On this episode of Stock Movers:

- Walmart (WMT) shares slipped after it issued an earning forecast that missed estimates. The world's largest retailer forecast less growth in earnings this year than Wall Street was expecting, citing the need for flexibility in unpredictable times for consumers. Walmart’s conservatism reflects the unusual state of the US economy, which is expanding at a solid clip but seeing little employment growth. New Chief Executive Officer John Furner aims to keep gaining market share by keeping prices low and continuing momentum in online delivery services.

- Blue Owl (OWL) shares continue to tumble after it restricted withdrawals from one of its retail focused private credit funds, a fresh blow to a sector that’s faced heightened scrutiny in recent weeks. Blue Owl’s decision highlights a key risk for retail investors drawn to private credit: such funds offer less liquidity than public markets, and firms can block their investors from cashing in.

- Alphabet (GOOGL) shares rallied on reporting from the Wall Street Journal that the tech giant is in talks to expand the market for its AI chips.
