Wal Mart does not own Lowes. But in some way I believe they sort of "work together" although Lowes does not own any piece of Wal Mart and Wal Mart doesn't own any piece of Lowes. Lowe's is a publicly traded company with a board of directors that has chairman and CEO Charles Niblock running the show. The rumor of Walmart owning lowes is fueled by another rumor that has Sam Walton's grandaughter owning more than 50% of Lowes' controllable shares. The stock holders own Lowe's.
