Walmart's stock has fallen 5% over the last six months, dropping from its trillion-dollar peak after two disappointing earnings reports. However, one Wall Street firm, Tigress Financial Partners, forecasts a 30% gain soon, citing Walmart's shift towards tech and media, with strong growth in eCommerce and advertising. While the stock trades at a premium multiple, the firm's bullish outlook hinges on continued growth in high-margin advertising, marketplace sales, and Walmart+ membership. Investors will watch upcoming earnings to see if these segments can offset price pressures and drive the stock higher.
