Walmart stands firm on its full-year sales and operating income forecast, predicting 3-4% growth despite withdrawing first-quarter profit guidance amid escalating tariffs from the Trump administration. The retailer aims to maintain pricing flexibility for customers as other businesses slow orders and hiring due to similar tariff pressures. With over two-thirds of its merchandise sourced domestically, Walmart believes it can navigate through these economic challenges effectively, even as it faces potential impacts on lower- and middle-income shoppers who have been affected by inflation.
