沃尔玛最新披露显示,公司第二财季营收为 1879 亿美元,高于市场预期,也较上年同期增长。不过,投资者更关注其美国核心业务销售放缓,这一因素盖过了营收超预期带来的支撑。

美国同店销售低于预期

当季沃尔玛美国同店销售增长 2.6%,低于华尔街预期,也是近六年来最慢的季度增速。若剔除药房议价价格下调影响,这一增幅可达 3.4%。

更细项的数据也显示消费趋于谨慎。门店客流增速由上一季度的 3% 放缓至 1.5%,单笔交易平均支出仅增长 1.1%,而上年同期为 3.1%。

股价单日跌逾 9%

受销售数据拖累,沃尔玛股价在周四盘中一度下跌 10%,触及 9 个月低点 102.85 美元,收盘跌幅超过 9%。这次下跌抹去了公司逾 800 亿美元市值,也成为其自 2022 年 5 月以来最大单日跌幅。

公司首席财务官 John David Rainey 表示,汽油价格上涨正在迫使部分消费者重新安排支出。沃尔玛预计,今年与燃油相关的额外成本将超过 20 亿美元。

计划下调约 1.1 万种商品价格

为应对消费压力,沃尔玛计划对约 1.1 万种商品降价,部分资金来自约 29 亿美元的关税退款。管理层称,降价带来的影响将在第三财季更明显地体现出来。

尽管短期销售承压,公司仍上调了 2027 财年净销售增长预期,最新区间为 4% 至 5%,此前为 3.5% 至 4.5%。经调整后每股收益预期也上调至 2.80 至 2.87 美元。

补充信息:公司披露称,第二财季经调整后每股收益为 0.81 美元,高于市场此前对营收的普遍预期,但未能抵消投资者对美国消费放缓的担忧。

The AI craze is changing hedging transactions; the US dollar may not be safer after all.
Foreign capital continues to flow into large U.S. tech stocks, bonds of cloud service companies, and power grid infrastructure, making the connection between the dollar and the AI investment cycle even tighter. Reuters reports that recently, when the valuation of AI came under pressure, safe-haven funds flowed more towards the Japanese yen and Swiss franc, and the dollar did not receive the same support.
