WMT has been in the news 409% more than usual

WMT has been in the news recently: Hillspire, the family office of Relativity Space CEO Eric Schmidt, made 15 investments in 2025 and topped CNBC’s Family Office 15 as family offices collectively hold more than $3 trillion—a scale of private capital that can influence the markets and consumer sectors where Walmart operates. Moderna shares have risen 50% to $40.11 over three months ahead of the CPI release, and analysts note Powell’s Fed tenure ends in May amid inflation, a policy rate above 5% and two expected 0.25% cuts—macroeconomic conditions that can affect consumer spending and interest rates relevant to Walmart’s sales and financing.
