After a long holdout, Walmart Inc. is finally getting Apple Pay.

Walmart beat estimates, raised guidance, and watched its stock crater 9% anyway. The reason buried in the CFO's comments explains why the quarter's biggest win may actually set up a painful Q3.

BJ's Wholesale Club's (BJ) fiscal second-quarter results came in ahead of Wall Street's estimates, p

Walmart’s finance chief had a message Thursday for analysts pressing the company on its decision to cut prices: Give it time. Walmart said it rolled back prices on more than 11,000 items, including ground beef, citing the ongoing strain on consumers of inflation and high gas prices. The move comes after the company received tariff refunds worth about $2.9 billion, which it’s using to fund the price cuts.

Walmart said its U.S. e-commerce sales rose 24% in the second quarter, with more than 40% sales growth in deliveries fulfilled at its stores. CEO John Furner said Walmart has now expanded deliveries of 30 minutes or less into 38 U.S. markets. The number of units delivered in less than half an hour has doubled in the current quarter from a year ago, and 70% of all e-commerce orders are getting delivered on the same day or better, CFO John David Rainey said.

Index funds went from a punchline to the investing world’s 800-pound gorilla. This month marks the 50th anniversary of the Vanguard First Index Investment Trust, now Vanguard 500, the original way for individuals to passively own the S&P 500 index. Founder Jack Bogle raised just $11 million, about a 10th what he had hoped, and it was dubbed “Bogle’s Folly.”

Spending on K-12 and back-to-college combined is expected to hit a record of nearly $147 billion, according to the National Retail Federation. “Customers are responding to just absolutely fantastic investments in price,” Walmart’s U.S. CEO David Guggina said yesterday during the company’s earnings call that highlighted the cost pressures facing consumers. “We have a list of 14 key items that are priced less than what we saw in 2019,” he also said of the store’s school supplies, citing examples from the store’s Pen+Gear brand, which has crayons for 25 cents and No. 2 pencils for 92 cents.

The S&P is already near Ahmed Riesgo’s 7800 target, and he says rising rates are the biggest risk to this market right now. He breaks down exactly where he’d take profits — and why he’s rotating money into bonds, healthcare, and equal‑weight exposure to stay ahead of the next move.
