Didn't find any theories about what Walmart would actually do with Jet if they bought them.
Not sure it makes sense to buy Jet unless they just wanna buy the underlying tech (which is an overpayment).
If they integrate the technology into walmart.com, that would cause issues with the B&M customers who don't get discounts for buying more than 1 item. Why should online be cheaper than B&M?
And if they run Jet separately, how does that help Walmart or Walmart.com?
Unless the investment is not meant to help Walmart directly compete with Amazon.
From Jet's POV, it sounds like they're doing well, as they're allegedly worth double their previous evaluation 9 months ago.
Why sell out now? And if they're not doing well, why would Walmart buy a sinking ship at double the price?
Too many things don't make sense to me right now.
