How it trades on rate days

How WMT has moved when long-dated Treasury yields rise — measured against TLT, the 20+ year Treasury fund.

  • Beta to long bonds, 1 year 0.21 — shows only a loose link to bond moves for every 1% move in TLT (20+ year Treasuries), Walmart Inc. moved 0.21% on average · correlation 0.08 · higher than 21% of US names
  • Beta, last 3 months 0.51 more rate-sensitive lately than over the year
  • On the 10 worst bond days −0.60% on average against −0.74% for the S&P 500 the 10 sessions of the past year in which TLT fell most, i.e. long yields rose most
  • Latest of those days −2.66% TLT −1.29% that day 2026-09-24

Daily total returns from the adjusted price series; a TLT down day is a day long yields rose. Beta = the average move of the name for a 1% move in TLT. Past sensitivity, not a forecast. An investment diary, not a recommendation.

Company snapshot — Walmart Inc.

WMT in five paragraphs: what it makes and sells, where it sits in the Closelooknet stack, who it is priced against, why we track it, what we watch. Research diary, not advice.

What it does
Walmart runs retail and wholesale stores, membership clubs and ecommerce sites worldwide, organised as three segments: Walmart U.S., Walmart International and Sam's Club U.S. It sells groceries, health and wellness products, home and hardline goods, electronics and financial services, and carries its own private-label lines. Walmart is based in Bentonville, Arkansas.
Where it sits in the stack
Walmart carries no seat in Rubin, our AI build-out index, so it sits outside that stack. Inside the diary's wider universe it sits in the retail and discount-store sleeve, priced as a consumer-defensive name rather than a build-out constituent.
Who it is priced against
Closelooknet's peer group compares Walmart with hyperscalers and platform companies — Amazon, Microsoft, Alphabet, Oracle and Alibaba — a set built around scale and cloud-adjacent reach rather than store format; the market also weighs it against Costco.
Why Closelooknet tracks it
Walmart holds seats in the Nasdaq-100 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average, and the diary has quoted it across the Morning 10 and Midday 10 when broad consumer prints move the tape. It does not yet carry a Closelooknet score.
What the diary watches
The diary watches whether Walmart's push into digital advertising, marketplace and financial services widens its comparison with the platform names in its peer group, or whether it stays priced as a store operator.
