Walmart' next-day delivery plan has Wall Street wondering if it can give Amazon a run for its money — but some experts say it's a tough comparison.
top technical analyst, Ari Wald, has a clear favorite.Wald called attention to a chart showing the relative ratio between the rivals' stock performance. When the line rises, Amazon is outperforming Walmart; when it falls, Amazon is underperforming.
"More recently, we've seen the ratio stabilize and now turn back in favor towards Amazon. It's inflected higher," he added. "We see this as a resumption of Amazon's long-term trend of outperformance. It's probably not necessarily a case against Walmart, but more so that the bullish case is more compelling for Amazon."
Walmart's next-day delivery announcement wasn't exactly surprising given the company's focus on growing its e-commerce segment, but that doesn't mean it's suddenly a shoe-in comparison with Amazon, she said. As such, Sanchez said she saw Amazon as the better pick but said she wasn't totally sold on the issue at hand.
