X users report that Walmart is the latest major retailer to offer a variety of gold products in its online store. This comes several months after membership-based wholesale retailer Costco began selling 1 oz. gold bars.
"Walmart is selling gold and silver. Are you awake yet? This is a financial change," one X user said.

Here's what others are saying:
Looks like $GOLD is reversing off this spike today that is attracting every last buyer including Walmart and Costco buyers

Walmart is not selling bullion direct to consumer. They are being sold by @APMEX @usmint etc looks like they are just trying to capture as much exposure as possible for @Costco @Walmart customers ( which is smart, major FOMO at all time highs for GOLD )

Walmart appears to be getting on the precious metals action following Costco CFO Richard Galanti's comments earlier this month about incredible gold bar demand among consumers:
"You've probably read about the fact that we're selling one-ounce gold bars. We sold over $100 million of gold during the quarter."
Galanti continued:
"When we load them [gold bars] on the site, they're typically gone within a few hours."
Costco's and Walmart's gold rush comes as gold prices have soared 14% since early October to a new record high of $2,088 this week. Gold's strength has been underpinned by traders' aggressive pricing of Federal Reserve rate cuts.
The yellow metal "is the answer for many things at the moment – whether it's inflation carrying on, rate cuts or the uncertainty with very costly wars going on," said Jo Harmendjian, portfolio manager at Tiberius Group AG.
