Analysts see the drop in the share price as an opportunity to buy, as the company has strong fundamentals. The retailer's growth strategy is to grow its grocery businesses, value offerings, supply chain efficiency, and high margin businesses like its marketplace and ad services. Moreover, other market analysts such as RBC Capital Markets, BMO Capital Markets as well as others have mixed projections. The upgrade by TD Cowen anticipates a long-run picture as Walmart deals with near-term difficulties while profiting from its operational suitability.
