Walmart to Buy Jet
Amazon wannabe and competitor Jet.com is approaching its first birthday and might be getting a pretty big birthday gift. Commerce extraordinaire Walmart is thinking about buying the web retailer. This could be huge for Walmart because it could greatly help their e-commerce efforts and help with their goal to be the largest retailer in the world. Jet would also benefit from this seeing as the startup wasn’t as profitable as it hoped. It’s not official and no price tags are on the market yet, but it’s rumored that Jet could be worth $3 billion. It’s a race for the largest retailer trophy. (Source: Wall Street Journal)
