Walmart stock, which has lost more than 8% of its value this year, increased 4% in the premarket.
The retailer has previously alarmed markets across the globe by decreasing its earnings projection and warning that consumers are reducing discretionary spending more quickly than anticipated as rising prices on everything from toothpaste to gasoline constrain their purchasing power.
Due of this, Walmart has been obliged to drastically drop the prices of goods like apparel in an effort to get rid of the more than $61 billion in inventory that the business had at the end of the first quarter.
Walmart has $59.92 billion in inventory at the conclusion of the second quarter that ended on July 31, a 25% increase from the same period last year.
