The retail giant is offering low prices on everything from eggs to milk to shoes, tires, and delivering those items to doorsteps fast.
That's certainly good news for Walmart, but if people are focused on the basics and willing to hunt for discounts, that might say something pretty concerning about the state of mind of the American consumer.
On Thursday, Walmart raised its full-year outlook after reporting strong sales for the quarter.
Its shares jumped 6.5% on Thursday and closed out the week almost 2.8% higher.
And finally, AI.
It's going nuclear.
The Trump administration is giving Constellation Energy a billion-dollar federal loan to restart the Three Mile Island nuclear power plant in Pennsylvania to generate electricity for Microsoft's artificial intelligence business.
After a partial core meltdown in 1979, the country's worst nuclear power accident, one of the plant's two reactors was permanently shut down.
The second was deemed too costly, and that was shut down in 2019.
Under the deal, Constellation will revive that undamaged reactor with the power generated to be sold to Microsoft under a 20-year deal.
The plant will add around 800 megawatts of power generation to the grid, the energy secretary said, helping with the tech industry's insatiable demand for 24-7 power needs for its AI data centers.
Constellation shares gained 5.3% Wednesday and closed out the week down a tenth of a point.
