📌 Strategic Entry in Costco (COST): Solid Stock with Immediate Catalysts
Today I entered Costco (COST) by purchasing shares based on our structured methodology of 20 key criteria — combining technical strength, strong fundamentals, and strict risk control. This decision is further supported by two major short-term catalysts.
🔍 Why Costco – and Why Now?
✅ Meets our full 20-point checklist:
Strong uptrend (above MA50 & MA200)
Healthy RSI, not overbought
Consistent volume supporting price action
Fundamental strength: steady growth, recurring revenue via memberships
Clear risk management: no leverage, capital exposure <6%
📈 Catalyst #1: Earnings Today (May 29)
Analysts expect EPS of $4.24 and revenue of $63.1B. Historically, Costco tends to outperform expectations, which may trigger a bullish move.
🌎 Catalyst #2: U.S. GDP Release (Today at 8:30 AM EST)
With forecasts around +2.2%, confirmation would support a strong consumer environment — ideal for retail leaders like Costco.
🧠 Our Execution Plan:
Buying the shares directly (no options, no leverage) to avoid inflated IV risk.
Target zone: $1,040–$1,070 short term.
Trailing stop in place to protect gains post-earnings.
📊 Bottom Line:
This is not speculation — it’s structure. Costco offers a rare alignment of solid fundamentals, technical confirmation, and immediate macro + micro catalysts.
Strategy on. Emotions off.
