Walmart has completed its $3.3-billion acquisition of online retailer Jet.com, as part of its efforts to improve its ability to compete in the e-commerce market. Although ranked as number 2 in L2's Digital IQ Index: Big Box report for its e-commerce capabilities, Walmart lags behind market leader Amazon. In 2015, Walmart reported $13.7 billion in online sales, while Amazon earned more than $92 billion.
