How the Walton Family Managed Walmart Without Going Public
This episode explores how the Walton family has maintained control over Walmart, one of the world's largest retailers, through a complex web of voting shares and trusts. We look at the specific mechanics of their dual-class stock structure, which gives them disproportionate voting power despite owning a minority of the economic equity. Lucas and Luna discuss why this arrangement allows for long-term decision-making but also raises questions about accountability in modern corporate governance.
