<h3 id="guidance">Guidance</h3> 
<p>Looking forward, Walmart’s guidance for the upcoming quarters and fiscal year 2025 is a beacon for investors and market watchers. The company has set an optimistic yet calculated outlook, reflecting its confidence in sustained growth and profitability. The increase in the annual dividend by 9% to $0.83 per share, marking the 51st consecutive year of dividend growth, is a robust signal of Walmart’s financial health and its commitment to returning value to shareholders. This forward-looking perspective, coupled with strategic moves like the acquisition of VIZIO HOLDING CORP. to bolster its advertising business, illustrates Walmart’s proactive approach to capitalizing on growth opportunities.</p> <iframe src="https://tokenist.substack.com/embed" width="100%" height="320" style="border:1px solid #EEE; background:white;" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe>
