Costco stock slips in year-end session as traders eye Jan. 7 sales update for COST

Costco stock slips in year-end session as traders eye Jan. 7 sales update for COST

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 14:14 ET — Regular session Costco Wholesale Corporation shares were slightly lower on Wednesday as Wall Street eased in the final trading session of 2025. The muted move matters because Costco is closely watched as a bellwether for value-focused spending and membership-driven retail, especially heading into fresh monthly sales data in early January. It also comes during thin holiday trading, when smaller orders can have an outsized impact on prices and investors reposition ahead of the New Year’s market break. Costco shares were down $1.28, or about 0.1%, at $864.37 in afternoon trading. The stock

Target stock drops after activist buzz fades; Fed minutes set the next test for TGT

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 21:25 ET — Market closed Target Corporation (TGT) shares fell 1.4% on Monday to $98.10, after trading between $97.72 and $100.20 in a muted year-end session.

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 17:45 ET — After-hours Costco Wholesale shares fell 0.6% in after-hours trading on Monday to $867.84. The dip comes as investors head into the final two trading sessions of 2025 with holiday liquidity thin and little company-specific news to reset near-term expectations. Reuters Costco’s stock has become a high-profile gauge for how well big-box retailers can hold demand without heavy discounting, helped by its membership-fee model. Those fees are a key profit driver because they carry much higher margins than most of the goods sold in warehouses. Nasdaq+1 U.S. stocks closed lower on Monday, with
