On this episode of Stock Movers:
- Walmart (WMT) shares slide. Quarterly sales fell short of expectations, with sales at US stores open at least a year, excluding fuel, rising 2.6% in the second quarter. The company's pharmacy business was hindered by federal negotiations that led to lower drug prices, and shoppers spent less per trip during the quarter.

- Alibaba (BABA) ADRs rise. Alibaba Group Holding Ltd.’s profit plunged more than 75% after the company increased quarterly capital spending to almost $10 billion to safeguard its position in the global AI arena. The company reported a 9% jump in revenue, but net income tumbled to 10.5 billion yuan and it registered a free-cash outflow of $6.6 billion, reflecting the rising cost of AI projects and computing infrastructure.
-Coty (COTY) shares fall on Thursday after the beauty conglomerate refrained from providing full-year guidance, predicting a “transition” period in the current fiscal year. Net revenue increased 1% to $1.27 billion, but declined 1% on a like-for-like basis, including an estimated 1% headwind from the Middle East conflict.

Today's biggest winners and losers in the stock market.
On this episode of Stock Movers:
- Shares of Walmart (WMT) tumbled ahead of the market open after the retail giant’s quarterly sales fell short of expectations, a rare miss that’s likely to stoke concern about the leading big-box retailer decelerating alongside a slow-growing US economy. Sales at US stores open at least a year, excluding fuel, rose 2.6% in the second quarter, shy of the lowest analyst estimate compiled by Bloomberg. That rate of growth — hindered primarily by pricing pressure in its pharmacy business — is the slowest in more than six years.
- Shares of Advanced Auto Parts (AAP) sunk in premarket trading after the parts provider reported second-quarter sales that fell short of analyst estimates. Though the company boosted its adjusted earnings per share forecast for the full year, it maintained its sales guidance, which is also below estimates at the midpoint.
- Shares of Coty (COTY) fell after the beauty conglomerate reported fourth-quarter results. While the company’s net revenue for the quarter beat the average analyst estimate, Coty didn’t provide a full-year forecast and said it expects to provide a broader outlook following a strategic review. The company also reported a wider-than-expected loss, or a one cent earnings per share miss.
