Walmart Tumbles on Sales; Coty Falls on Forecast | Stock Movers

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. - 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.
