Walmart is reportedly selling its entire 5.19% stake in JD.com, a Chinese e-commerce firm, aiming to raise up to $3.74 billion. The sale involves 144.5 million shares, priced between $24.85 and $25.85 each, at an 11% discount. This move marks the end of an eight-year partnership between Walmart and JD.com.
