  • Costco Shares Up 15% in 2026: Strong Sales and Digital Growth Fuel Momentum
    February 6, 2026, 12:13 AM EST. Costco's stock has climbed about 15% year to date, outperforming the near-flat S&P 500 in 2026. The wholesale retailer's strength lies in its steady sales growth, with January same-store sales up 7.1% year over year, excluding gasoline and currency impacts. Digital sales, now 10% of total revenue, surged over 33% in January, highlighting the success of recent initiatives like a $10 monthly credit for delivery orders via its platform and partners such as Instacart. As investors move away from riskier growth stocks, Costco's reliable membership model and focus on essentials continue drawing interest. The question remains whether this momentum signals further gains or if the stock has priced in its strong fundamentals.
