Make your own forecastAbout Costco Wholesale
Costco Wholesale runs membership warehouse clubs that sell groceries, household goods, electronics, appliances and other products in bulk at low prices. The first warehouse opened in Seattle in 1983, and the company is headquartered in Issaquah, Washington. Shoppers pay an annual membership fee, which is a key profit source. Costco keeps its assortment deliberately limited, sells its own Kirkland Signature private label and also operates gas stations, pharmacies, optical centers and travel services.
Most warehouses are in the United States and Canada, with additional locations in Mexico, the United Kingdom, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Australia, Spain, France, China and other countries. Investors watch membership renewal rates, comparable sales, new warehouse openings and the growth of e-commerce. Membership fee increases, which come at irregular intervals, can lift profits. The business tends to hold up relatively well in economic downturns. Costco trades on the Nasdaq under the ticker COST and is a member of the Nasdaq-100 and the S&P 500.
The current price of Costco Wholesale stock is $1,081.28 (−0.50% vs. the previous close). In today's trading the high was $1,088.14 and the low $1,059.60.
How the Quantum Forecast works
Research from quantum physics. The models are the result of several years of research at the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics and LMU Munich and were transferred to the stock market.
Spectra and correlations. Frequency spectra are calculated from current prices, and the relationships between price swings and volatility are analyzed. This produces the forecast and the risk assessment.
Detecting herd behavior. Models of phase transitions from statistical physics describe when investors collectively fall into panic or euphoria – an early sign of possible crash situations.
Swarm intelligence. User forecasts are checked once their time frame has expired and feed into the model, weighted by their hit rate.
