The retail industry press has taken notice of Walmart’s efforts to encourage its associates to buy or acquire shares in the company:

McMillon told John Furner, who leads Walmart’s U.S. division, on Furner’s podcast Thursday, ‘Sam and Helen both wanted all of our associates to participate in the upside of the company. One of the ways we do that is with a share purchase plan.‘”
