Costco Stock Surges Amid Retail Gloom – Will $900+ Shares Keep Climbing?

Costco Stock Surges Amid Retail Gloom – Will $900+ Shares Keep Climbing?

Costco’s stock has been on a steady long-term climb, and 2025 has been no exception – albeit with some twists. The shares currently hover around $914–$928 stockanalysis.com. That price is roughly where Costco started the year, meaning the stock is about flat year-to-date after accounting for dividends. However, this flat YTD performance masks considerable volatility along the way. In the first half of 2025, Costco rallied strongly with the broader market. The stock peaked at an intraday all-time high of about $1,078 earlier this year ts2.tech, as enthusiasm around Costco’s robust sales and the market’s tech-driven rally lifted many stocks. By late summer, though, shares had pulled back into the mid-$900s amid profit-taking and general market turbulence. Recent trading: In late September, Costco’s fiscal Q4 earnings sparked a brief sell-off. Despite solid results, the stock fell ~2–3% immediately after the report investopedia.com. Why? Largely because investors had lofty expectations baked in. Costco beat on both revenue and EPS, but its U.S. same-store sales growth came in a tad below some forecasts, and management struck a cautious tone on certain consumer spending areas investopedia.com. This was enough for short-term traders to take profits, making Costco one of the S&P 500’s weaker

Nasdaq Stumbles as Fed Jitters Mount, Intel Soars, Tariffs Rattle Tech Markets

Nasdaq Stumbles as Fed Jitters Mount, Intel Soars, Tariffs Rattle Tech Markets

Wall Street’s momentum faltered in the latter half of this week, with the Nasdaq Composite and Nasdaq-100 both posting their third straight daily loss on Thursday. The Nasdaq Composite closed at 22,384.70, and the S&P 500 and Dow Jones also fell around 0.5% and 0.4%, respectively reuters.com. These declines marked a sharp reversal from Monday, when all three indices notched record-high closes investopedia.com after a months-long tech-driven rally. Traders say the pullback partly reflects investors locking in profits on big tech names that had run up dramatically through the summer. The CBOE Volatility Index – Wall Street’s “fear gauge” – remains relatively low, but market breadth turned negative as decliners outnumbered gainers by about 3-to-1 on the Nasdaq exchange reuters.com, indicating more stocks are participating in the downdraft. Notably, energy stocks provided a rare bright spot. The S&P 500 energy sector jumped nearly 1% on Thursday reuters.com, bolstered by rising oil prices. But most other sectors slumped. High-valuation growth shares were under particular pressure as Treasury yields climbed, increasing the cost of capital. “Historically we’re certainly at the high end” of equity valuations after this year’s run-up, “but one big positive is it seems like the government is going to

Market Slump Deepens as Costco Shines – Experts Reveal What’s Next

Market Slump Deepens as Costco Shines – Experts Reveal What’s Next

After a euphoric run to new highs, U.S. equities hit a speed bump this week. Thursday marked the third day in a row of losses across the major indices investopedia.com. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite and the broad S&P 500 each slid roughly half a percent, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average lost about 0.4% investopedia.com. These modest percentage declines ended what had been a streak of record-breaking closes through Monday investopedia.com. In other words, stocks went from euphoria to a cautious pullback virtually overnight. Why the sudden slump? In a classic case of “good news is bad news” for markets, investors reacted to a batch of upbeat economic data that raised concerns about interest rates. The Commerce Department’s final revision for second-quarter GDP showed 3.8% annualized growth, even higher than previously thought investopedia.com. At the same time, the weekly unemployment claims fell to just 218,000 – a lower level than expected investopedia.com. Such data underscore a remarkably resilient economy: consumers are spending and the job market remains tight. Normally, strong growth is positive. But right now it fans fears that the Federal Reserve may need to keep monetary policy tighter for longer to prevent an overheating economy.

Hot GDP Surprise Shatters Wall Street’s Rally – Stocks Slide on Fed Jitters (Sept 25, 2025)

Wall Street’s September rally hit a wall on Thursday as all three major indexes extended their slide. The S&P 500, Nasdaq Composite, and Dow Jones Industrial Average each fell roughly half a percent, marking the third straight day of losses investopedia.com. This losing streak interrupted what had been a strong run: through Monday, the indices had climbed to record highs before momentum shifted mid-week investopedia.com. Traders used the recent high valuations as an excuse to take profits. “With the S&P pricing in 23–24 times expected earnings and ~15% annualized earnings growth over the next five years, that sounds pretty rich to me,” noted one chief investment officer, reflecting on stretched stock valuations reuters.com. Indeed, earlier in the week Fed Chair Jerome Powell cautioned that equity prices appeared high, evoking former Chair Greenspan’s “irrational exuberance” warning reuters.com reuters.com. Those valuation concerns, combined with fresh economic news, triggered a broad risk-off tone on Sept. 25. Nearly every sector of the market pulled back. Defensive groups like utilities and consumer staples slipped alongside growth sectors, showing the decline was widespread reuters.com reuters.com. Notably, the healthcare sector saw acute pressure. The U.S. Commerce Department announced a new probe into medical device imports, which sent
