Walmart Expects to See ‘Deflation’ in the Coming Months

Walmart CEO Doug McMillon expects deflation in the U.S. in the coming months, potentially leading to lower prices for consumers.

McMillon cited high food prices as a concern but noted declining general merchandise prices could benefit Walmart in the holiday season.
