No other retail chain has given such an increase.
During the third quarter, sales volumes in stores in the country increased by 3.2%, with analysts predicting a figure of 2.9%. The data made it possible to adjust the profit for Walmart securities. Now the share generates income of $1.16, although the expected figure was $1.09.
Online sales of the trading network are actively developing. During the quarter they increased by 41%, while in the previous period the growth was at 37%.
The decrease was reflected in operating profit, which decreased by 5.4% and was fixed at $4.7 billion. This situation can be explained by the investment policy aimed at expanding e-commerce opportunities.
