How Walmart Keeps Prices Low (October 16, 2025)

Walmart is making a push on U.S. manufacturing, and says it’s good business. Today, Jenny Rae and Namaan break down what’s signal versus spin, where onshoring can actually cut costs, and why category-by-category moves matter more than headline percentages. We get into supplier power, inventory timing, vertical integration in beef, and pharma basics like bringing amoxicillin back onshore. Plus, a personal investing lesson from Jenny Rae’s grandmother: buy what you never plan to sell. Tell us how you shop at Walmart and what you’re seeing in prices where you live.
