Costco Wholesale Corporation (COST) Is a Victim of Its Own Success

Posted: 14 Sep 2018 10:19 AM PDT

After reporting consistent earnings and same-store sales beats throughout 2018 that have sent its stock up more than 30 percent on the year to new all-time highs, Costco Wholesale Corporation (NYSE: COST) may finally be becoming a victim of its own success. Wells Fargo analyst Edward Kelly downgraded COST stock from "outperform" to "market perform" and says it will be difficult for Costco to impress the market at this point. Kelly says Costco's performance has been stellar in recent quarters, but it's unlikely the company will continue to deliver its impressive sales growth in 2019.

Pompeo spoke after U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley accused Moscow on Thursday of seeking to cover up breaches of U.N. sanctions on North Korea by Russians by pushing for changes to an independent report on sanctions violations. Pompeo said he hoped the U.N. sanctions committee would "publish the original document that they intended to publish which shows clear activities related to sanctions and sanctions violations." "The United States is as committed as ever to continuing to enforce those U.N. Security Council resolutions.

"These actions are intended to stop the flow of illicit revenue to North Korea from overseas information technology workers disguising their true identities and hiding behind front companies, aliases, and third-party nationals," Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said in a statement.
