Hey kids! Wall Street had a bit of a down day. Think of it like a rollercoaster that went down a little after being super high for a couple of days. Lots of different companies saw their stock prices change.
- Walmart's stock price went down because they didn't predict as much profit as people thought.
- Other stores like Costco, Target, and Amazon also saw their stock prices fall.
- Palantir, a tech company, went down because of possible government spending cuts.
- Some companies like Baxter and Shake Shack did well and their stock prices went up!
- Alibaba, a big online store from China, also saw its stock price rise.
Company | Change |

It was a mixed day for the stock market, with some companies doing great and others not so much. Remember, the stock market can go up and down.
