A comment on Walmart in talks to buy TV maker Vizio for more than $2B.
Vizio largely just assembles TVs specifically by purchasing parts from local ODMs in China, Taiwan, Mexico, VN, etc.
It's basically just a brandname slapped on generic tv manufacturers.
Walmart has a similar operation, and they are probably going to acquire Vizio to make a secondary upsell within Walmart.
