| Crazy to think they'd still be worth more than Walmart. At least to me. |

| Walmart is in a mature low-margin business. Their global expansion has stalled, and in the US competition is increasing There are also many positive things about them. They are huge, and innovating. But their growth potential is somewhat limited |

| I think it's crazy that Walmart is worth 1T. It's grocery chain operating in limited number of contries. Shouldn't be worth much more than for example, Carrefour. |

| ▲ | projektfu a day ago | parent [-] | | Carrefour appears larger because as you travel the world you will see them in the major city in every region. Walmart, on the other hand, has a store close to most small towns in the US, as well as multiple in more metropolitan places. |

| I know quite a few paying Anthropic customers here (Norway). Not a single customer of Walmart. |
