JPMorgan adjusted its Walmart stock price target after the retailers quarterly update.

Walmart Inc.'s quarterly sales fell short of expectations, a rare miss that's likely to stoke concern about the leading big-box retailer decelerating alongside a slow-growing US economy. Sales at US stores open at least a year, excluding fuel, rose 2.6% in the second quarter, shy of the lowest analyst estimate compiled by Bloomberg.

Walmart shares fell as much as 10%, the most intraday since 2022, in New York trading on Thursday, erasing a modest year-to-date gain through the previous day's close.

Walmart’s finance chief had a message Thursday for analysts pressing the company on its decision to cut prices: Give it time.

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.
