Amazon Surges to New Heights, Leaving Walmart in the Dust

Instruments
AMZN
Share

Amazon stock has risen by 14% year-to-date and is trading at its lowest valuation in a decade, while Walmart's stock has increased by only 3%.

The two leading retailers in the US have different valuations due to their performance. Amazon's price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio is 21, which is lower than its historical average, while Walmart's P/E ratio is around 40, above its historical average.

Amazon's recent surge can be attributed to its strong second-quarter earnings, where net sales rose by 20%, operating income soared by 43%, and Amazon Web Services (AWS) grew by 37%.
