WMTWalmart
Is the price fair?
A demanding price: priced for +22% a year vs +5% a year delivered and at the top of its own P/E range.
Priced for ~22% a year FCF growth. The price demands more than its three-year revenue growth of 5% a year, priced for acceleration.
Expensive vs its own history: P/E 43.3 vs a 29.9 median over 41 quarters (+45% vs median).
Where this answer is blind. The growth-implied estimate assumes a fixed discount rate; capital-heavy sectors look structurally rich on it.
What WMT's price assumes
Walmart trades at 43.3× earnings against 21.4× for the median Discount Stores name, more expensive than its own group.
