COSTCO WHOLESALE CORP

Costco Wholesale

Costco operates a membership-based, no-frills retail model predicated on offering a select product assortment in bulk quantities at bargain prices. The firm avoids maintaining costly product displays by keeping inventory on pallets and limits distribution expenses by storing its inventory at point of sale in the warehouse. Given its frugal cost structure, the firm is able to price its merchandise below that of competing retailers, driving high sales volume per warehouse and generating strong profits on thin margins. Costco operates over 600 warehouses in the United States and has over 60% share in the domestic warehouse club industry. Internationally, Costco operates another 280 warehouses, primarily in Canada, Mexico, Japan, and the UK.

J.P. Morgan analyst Christopher Horvers on Thursday reiterated a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/COST/analyst-ratings">Overweight rating </a>on the shares of Costco Wholesale Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COST#NASDAQ">COST</a>) and raised the price target from $1070 to $1088.
Costco's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/05/g45266456/costco-wholesale-corporation-reports-april-sales-results">U.S. core comparable sales rose </a>7.1% in April, surpassing expectations despite a calendar-related sales headwind from the Easter shift, said the analyst. 
U.S. store traffic climbed 5%, while total global traffic increased 4.2%, and the average transaction size grew 2.4% year-over-year. 
However, core sales in Canada and other international markets underperformed versus projections. The strongest U.S. regions were the Midwest, Northeast, and Southeast, while internationally, Mexico, Korea, and Taiwan led performance. 
 E-commerce sales jumped 13%, excluding currency effects, noted the analyst.
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45289133/why-footwear-giant-crocs-stock-is-surging-today">Why Is Footwear Giant Crocs Stock Surging Today?</a>
Costco shared several key insights on recent sales trends. First, the company observed less early demand pull-forward in non-food items in April compared to March, particularly in electronics, while noting strength in upholstered furniture and continued share gains in appliances, aided by its home delivery expansion. 
The negative impact from the Easter timing shift was smaller than anticipated, estimated at around 1.5–2.0 percentage points. 
Second, in response to high beef prices, consumers are trading down to lower-cost cuts, a behavior that Costco previously flagged; however, the pricing pressures are not as disruptive as earlier egg inflation. 
Lastly, softer results in Canada and other international markets were attributed mainly to inflation and broader macroeconomic pressures, with only minor concerns about anti-American sentiment, the analyst asserted.
The analyst highlighted COST&#8217;s strong global momentum, market share gains, and exposure to a rebound in big-ticket items, which make up about 20% of its core sales. 
The company is also beginning to benefit from new advertising revenue streams. Costco's consistent international success and dominant warehouse club model position it as a top performer in the retail sector, rivaling the best companies across consumer categories. 
According to the analyst, the company remains a high-conviction investment pick.
Price Action: COST shares traded higher by 0.31% at $1010.70 at last check Thursday.

JPMorgan Sees More Upside For Costco As US Sales, E-Commerce Outperform

Telsey Advisory Group Maintains Outperform on Costco Wholesale, Maintains $1100 Price Target

Costco Net Sales For Retail Month Of Apr. Were $21.18B, Up 7% YoY

Legendary investor Charlie Munger gave shareholders blunt advice when asked how he thinks about downside protection and selling stocks, back in 2019: "Find Costcos, not good exits."
What Happened: Munger, then vice‑chairman of Berkshire Hathaway, confessed he's "no good at exits." He <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X1Oi3esiry8">reminded</a> the crowd he bought Berkshire stock in 1966 and first invested in Costco (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COST#NASDAQ">COST</a>) in 1997, rarely trimming either stake.
"I don't like even looking for exits. I'm looking for holds," he said, drawing laughter. For Munger, value compounds through time and trusted operators, not rapid‑fire trades. "Think of the pleasure I've got from watching Costco march ahead. Such an utter meritocracy and it does so well. Why would I trade that experience for a series of transactions … In the first place, I'd be less rich after taxes."
Berkshire's buy‑and‑hold ethos has become an investing canon. Its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/01/36815518/this-is-how-much-warren-buffetts-company-missed-out-on-by-dumping-costco-stock-in-2020">$1.3 billion Costco stake</a>, built under Munger's influence, delivered double‑digit annual returns until the company exited in 2020.
His point for newer investors: hunt for durable, well‑run businesses you can cheer for decades. "It's a much less satisfactory life than rooting for people I like and admire," he added.

Why It Matters: Costco's disciplined playbook still carries Charlie Munger's fingerprints. Chair Hamilton "Tony" James told Chief Executive that the late Berkshire vice‑chairman spent 25 years on the board urging directors to "stick to our knitting, our values, and our principles," a mantra that underpins Costco's keep‑it‑simple retail model.
Munger's loyalty was personal as well as professional. He once called himself "a total addict" of the warehouse chain and vowed "I'm never going to sell a share," a stance that helped inspire his famously concentrated <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/08/40605821/charlie-munger-said-you-dont-need-to-own-a-lot-of-things-in-order-to-get-rich-but-believed-you-a">three‑stock portfolio</a> of Costco, Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) and Daily Journal (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DJCO#NASDAQ">DJCO</a>).
Warren Buffett's 2023 shareholder letter showcased Munger quotes that frame that philosophy. "There is no such thing as a 100% sure thing when investing," Munger warned, showcasing his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/08/40605821/charlie-munger-said-you-dont-need-to-own-a-lot-of-things-in-order-to-get-rich-but-believed-you-a">disdain for leverage</a>. He also advised, "You don't, however, need to own a lot of things to get rich," a maxim reflected in his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/42976301/charlie-munger-said-his-family-only-owns-3-stocks-damn-right-theyre-rich-because-diversification-is-for-know-nothing-investors">ultra‑focused</a> holdings. Finally, Munger's insistence that investors "keep learning" echoed his push for Berkshire's lucrative bet on BYD, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/23/11/36001430/charlie-mungers-buy-and-hold-thesis-may-seem-tame-but-it-worked-for-berkshire-hathaway">reminding markets</a> that adaption, not diversification, powered his lollapalooza returns.

Charlie Munger Said The Secret Is To 'Find Costcos, Not Good Exits' And That He Does Not Believe In Slick Sell Signals

Billionaire investor Bill Ackman believes inflation has largely been &#8220;wrung out of the economy&#8221; and predicts global economic conflicts could resolve within six to nine months, while advocating for a temporary pause on China tariffs to protect U.S. businesses.
What Happened: The Pershing Square Capital Management CEO <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/05/05/cnbc-excerpts-pershing-square-ceo-bill-ackman-speaks-with-cnbcs-andrew-ross-sorkin-on-squawk-box-today.html">told</a> CNBC that declining energy and food prices signal positive economic trends. &#8220;The price of energy is coming down and it&#8217;s going to stay down. And I think, you know, obviously very, very good for the economy,&#8221; Ackman said.
Recent economic data presents a mixed picture. U.S. Gross Domestic Product <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/45098824/tariffs-hit-hard-as-us-economy-shrinks-for-first-time-since-2022">unexpectedly contracted 0.3% in the first quarter of 2025</a>—the first decline since mid-2022—while April&#8217;s nonfarm payrolls increased by 177,000, surpassing the forecasted 130,000 despite tariff pressures.
Ackman suggested the Federal Reserve could implement &#8220;a few rate cuts&#8221; later this year, with a small reduction coming &#8220;relatively soon&#8221; as businesses pause investments amid tariff uncertainties. &#8220;First quarter is benefited by some frontloading of purchases and inventive tariffs,&#8221; he noted, explaining that many businesses are waiting to see what happens next.

Why It Matters: On China&#8217;s trade policy, Ackman recommended a strategic pause. &#8220;The right thing to do, in my view, is we pause on China. Let&#8217;s give it a little more time. Maybe it&#8217;s 180 days,&#8221; he said, arguing this would stabilize risks to the U.S. economy while incentivizing China to negotiate better terms as companies shift supply chains elsewhere.
His position contrasts with Warren Buffett&#8216;s sharper criticism of using tariffs as economic weapons. The Berkshire Hathaway Chairman recently warned that punitive <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45184120/warren-buffett-warns-tariffs-could-backfire-on-economy-says-trade-should-not-be-a-weapon-its-a-big-mistake-i-dont-think-its-wise">tariffs risk provoking international tensions</a>, calling them &#8220;a big mistake&#8221; without directly mentioning President Donald Trump.
Meanwhile, CNBC&#8217;s Jim Cramer remains optimistic about avoiding recession, citing strong employment trends. &#8220;It&#8217;s difficult to derail an economy that is still creating jobs,&#8221; Cramer said, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/45058829/jim-cramer-dismisses-recession-panic-says-tariffs-may-sting-but-too-many-jobs-for-economy-to-derail">suggesting consumers might adapt to tariff-induced price</a> increases by turning to budget retailers like Costco Wholesale Corp. and Walmart Inc.

Costco Stock Reverses Early Weakness, Rises 1.7% After Key Signal

On CNBC's &#8220;Mad Money Lightning Round,&#8221; Jim Cramer said Alaska Air Group, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALK#NYSE">ALK</a>) can still go lower. &#8220;It's really well-run, so don't take this the wrong way, but the airlines are wrong to own right here because people think we're going into a travel recession.&#8221;
On the earnings front, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ALK">Alaska Air Group</a> reported worse-than-expected first-quarter financial results on April 23 and issued second-quarter adjusted EPS guidance below estimates.
Kimberly-Clark Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KMB#NYSE">KMB</a>) did not make the quarter, Cramer said. &#8220;I was a little bummed out. Let's wait 'til it goes lower.&#8221;
On April 22, Kimberly-Clark posted first-quarter adjusted earnings per share of $1.93, beating the analyst consensus estimate of $1.89. Quarterly sales of $4.84 billion (down 6%) missed the street view of $4.88 billion.
CrowdStrike Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRWD#NASDAQ">CRWD</a>) is &#8220;terrific&#8221; for the long term, Cramer said. &#8220;We had to take some profits the other day, too, because it just got too big.&#8221;
CrowdStrike showcased Charlotte AI Agentic Response and Charlotte AI Agentic Workflows on Monday, marking progress in modern SOC operations.
When asked about Dillard&#8217;s, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DDS#NYSE">DDS</a>), he said, &#8220;You're going to be struggling to make money in any other retailer other than Costco (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COST#NASDAQ">COST</a>). I don't think Dillard's is a place to be.&#8221;
According to recent news, Dillard&#8217;s amended and extended its $800 million senior secured revolving credit facility on March 17.
Nextracker Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NXT#NASDAQ">NXT</a>) is &#8220;not great, not bad,&#8221; Cramer said. "This is technology all made in America. So, I think you're ok.&#8221;
Nextracker, meanwhile, will announce its fourth quarter fiscal 2025 financial results after the closing bell on Wednesday, May 14.
Price Action:

Jim Cramer: This Tech Stock Is 'Not Great, Not Bad', Alaska Air Can Still Go Lower

Amazon.Com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/ecommerce" rel="noreferrer noopener">canvassed its suppliers</a> to offer low, double-digit discounts on homeware to consumer electronics as U.S. President Donald Trump&#8217;s tariffs kicked in.
The Trump administration imposed tariffs of up to 145% on China, prompting Amazon to deal more aggressively with suppliers sourcing from China, the Financial Times <a target="_blank" href="https://www.ft.com/content/0363e639-07de-4b6b-84f8-82733bc3afc7" rel="noreferrer noopener">reported</a> Tuesday, citing vendor consultants. The tariffs also affected vendors from other countries.
Benzinga has reached out to Amazon for comments and will update the story.

Amazon took a cue from rivals like Costco Wholesale Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COST#NASDAQ">COST</a>) and Walmart Inc&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMT#NYSE">WMT</a>) move as they attempted to protect their margins, which they did in response to Trump&#8217;s first term in office.
Goldman Sachs analysts told the Financial Times that it expects the tariffs to affect 6%-12% of Amazon&#8217;s operating margins in 2025.
Several logistics providers and analysts told the Financial Times that Amazon had brought forward shipments and had pivoted to purchasing goods from suppliers with U.S. stock as Trump took charge in January.
Amazon had taken a less aggressive stance elsewhere, offering to bear up to a third of tariffs on non-China imports, which were at 10% during a 90-day pause period, the Financial Times cited consultants.
Analysts will closely follow Amazon Prime Day, which occurs twice a year in July and October. The summer edition generated $14.2 billion in 2024, the Financial Times cited Adobe Analytics. However, this year&#8217;s event will likely feature less steep discounts.
The White House criticized Amazon for reportedly <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/04/45067585/amazon-stock-tumbles-as-white-house-calls-tariff-visibility-plans-a-hostile-act" rel="noreferrer noopener">planning to display</a> the cost of tariffs next to the total price of products on its site, CNBC <a target="_blank" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/04/29/white-house-blasts-amazon-over-tariff-cost-report-hostile-and-political-act.html" rel="noreferrer noopener">reported</a> Tuesday. Close to 70% of products sold by Amazon are made in China.&nbsp;
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt drew parallels with the Biden administration hiking inflation to &#8220;record levels in 40 years&#8221;.
Amazon denied the report, citing its plans to reveal the tariff cost it added to its products.
Separately, Jeff Stein of the Washington Post <a target="_blank" href="https://x.com/JStein_WaPo/status/1917220665821634689" rel="noreferrer noopener">tweeted</a> that Amazon Haul has considered listing import price duties on certain products, something it had never considered for the main website.
Price Action:&nbsp;Amazon stock closed lower by 0.17% to $187.39 on Tuesday.

Costco Wholesale Unusual Options Activity For April 29

Jim Cramer believes excessive pessimism may be clouding Wall Street&#8217;s outlook, arguing that strong employment trends could prevent an economic downturn despite tariff concerns.
What Happened: &#8220;Will the tariffs hurt? Yes. Will prices go higher? Yes. Could there be shortages? Absolutely,&#8221; CNBC&#8217;s Cramer <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/04/28/continued-job-growth-could-help-ward-off-a-recession-jim-cramer-says.html?ref=biztoc.com">said</a> Monday. &#8220;But recessions revolve around employment, and there are still so many more jobs than we have people to fill them.&#8221;
Recession fears have grown amid President Donald Trump&#8216;s sweeping tariff hikes, especially those targeting China. However, Cramer maintains that companies are reluctant to lay off workers they might struggle to rehire when conditions improve.
&#8220;It&#8217;s difficult to derail an economy that is still creating jobs,&#8221; Cramer noted, predicting Friday&#8217;s labor report will be &#8220;fairly robust,&#8221; making it challenging to &#8220;slip into a full-blown recession any time soon.&#8221;

Why It Matters: Recent data support this optimism. March <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44645518/strong-jobs-report-offers-hope-but-will-it-be-enough-to-counter-tariff-turmoil">nonfarm payrolls surged by 228,000</a>, exceeding the three-month average of 195,000 and economists&#8217; forecasts of 135,000, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
While many <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/45033463/as-china-downplays-trump-tariffs-with-5-growth-target-top-economist-warns-of-90-chance-of-a-us-recession-amid-trade-war">economists paint a bleaker picture</a>—including Apollo Global Management&#8216;s Chief Economist Torsten Slok, who predicted a &#8220;90% chance&#8221; of recession if current tariff levels persist—not all share this view. The CEO of Chevron Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVX#NYSE">CVX</a>) recently stated there were &#8220;no signs of a recession at this point.&#8221;
Cramer suggested that while some businesses may suffer from tariff-induced price increases, consumers could adapt by turning to budget-friendly retailers like Costco Wholesale Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COST#NASDAQ">COST</a>) and Walmart Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMT#NYSE">WMT</a>).
&#8220;These two retailers have more market power than any two companies I&#8217;ve ever seen,&#8221; he said. &#8220;They can negotiate lower prices with their suppliers to offset the tariffs, including the Chinese.&#8221;

Their work involves attending company conference calls and meetings, researching company financial statements, and communicating with insiders to publish "analyst ratings" for stocks. Analysts typically assess and rate each stock once per quarter.
Some analysts will also offer forecasts for metrics like growth estimates, earnings, and revenue to provide further guidance on stocks. Investors who use analyst ratings should note that this specialized advice comes from humans and may be subject to error.

The Analyst Verdict: Costco Wholesale In The Eyes Of 19 Experts

Partnership furthers access and affordability of specialty medications and offers personalized support for those with chronic and rare conditions
Lumicera Health Services, a specialty pharmacy solutions company, today announced a partnership with Costco Wholesale Corporation (Costco) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COST#NASDAQ">COST</a>) to expand cost-plus specialty pharmacy in the marketplace and offer a broad spectrum of specialty medications with unmatched patient support, pricing transparency, and clinical expertise. Through this collaboration, commercial employer benefit plan sponsors and Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs) that partner with Costco Pharmacy for cost-plus pharmacy will gain access to these complex- and often very expensive- medication therapies at an auditable cost.

Lumicera Health Services And Costco Partner To Expand Cost-plus Specialty Pharmacy In Marketplace

Gold's sprint above $3,500 an ounce this week turned Costco's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COST#NASDAQ">COST</a>) bullion aisle into a treasure hunt, with some members using credit-card perks to all but mint money out of metal.
What Happened: One first-time collector <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/costco-gold-buyers-rewards-price-surge-2025-4">told</a> Business Insider he has poured more than $30,000 into bars and coins since January, all bought at Costco. 
"Costco was the gateway drug to gold investing," he said, admitting the speed of the rally now unnerves veteran stackers. "To me, it is the measuring stick for how bad things are going to get."
Costco lists 100-gram and 1-ounce bars online and in select warehouses. On Tuesday, the markup was so slim that Executive members paying with the Costco Citi card effectively earned 1%-2% cash back, a quirk that briefly made bullion cheaper than paper money. 
The club chain keeps no-return rules on precious metals and adjusts prices only once or twice a day, unlike live-priced bullion sites. A <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/CostcoPM/comments/1k60w3j/market_at_the_moment/">Reddit user noted</a>, "Their pricing lags up to a day or two behind spot… which was great for customers buying when gold skyrocketed."

Costco never says how much gold it moves, but executives have called bullion a key e-commerce growth engine, with inventory batches selling out "within a few hours." A warehouse manager, who asked not to be named, told BI that his store gets 10-20 bars at a time, and they're gone in days. "The price hasn't had much of an effect. The people who want it buy it," he added.
What To Know: Gold has dazzled in 2025, leaping more than 25% year-to-date and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/gold">briefly eclipsing $3,500</a> an ounce earlier this week, as investors flock to a safe haven amid Fed-independence worries, tariff threats, and recession chatter. Yet FXTM analyst Lukman Otunuga says the metal now looks <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44929939/gold-up-30-year-to-date-but-could-be-ripe-correction-analyst">"heavily overbought,"</a> warning that technical signals point to a cooling phase. He sees a pullback toward $3,350, $3,200 or even $3,140 unless bulls can secure a daily close above $3,500 and target the next milestone at $3,600.
The surge has lifted the SPDR Gold Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLD#NYSE">GLD</a>) in lockstep, but a dip in bullion could hit gold-mining shares harder because of their operating leverage. Even a hawkish Federal Reserve and a resilient dollar haven't dulled bullion's allure, showing how nervous traders remain. For now, investors riding GLD's momentum may want to watch for that correction cue before assuming the rally still has room to run.

<h3>The Importance of Insider Transactions</h3>
Considering insider transactions is valuable, but it's crucial to evaluate them in conjunction with other investment factors.
Considering the legal perspective, an "insider" is defined as any officer, director, or beneficial owner holding more than ten percent of a company's equity securities, according to Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This includes executives in the c-suite and major hedge funds. These insiders are mandated to disclose their transactions through a Form 4 filing, to be submitted within two business days of the transaction.
Pointing towards optimism, a company insider's new purchase signals their positive anticipation for the stock to rise.
