the GREEN boxes are similar to last Wednesday's: BRK-B, WMT, COST, PG (tyvm), LLY, JNJ, UNH. Although greens on PANW and CRM are puzzling. I just assumed the AI selloff just drags software with it.
$COST finally broke $1000 again
the self-correction from discretionary to staples is so real, half my stock watchlists are a mess of mislabeled sectors COST is one of those you just buy and forget about, it just steadily climbs. that 4% 5-day pop is nice but im more curious about what's driving CASY lately, 17% in a month is wild for a convenience store chain
nty I will continue to buy more COST and WMT :dance:

\> Many would agree we hit AGI, From the preselect of "OAI deal with MS" then yes we have. But from the "general public" perspective - well no. Lots of people think we had AGI then "funding" would not be a problem because Dario would have given models his credit card and beat the market and every one would be out of a job. Sorry to say NO HAL for you. \> RSI has most definitely not 'fallen off', There is a tweet from Andrej Karpathy about the gap in understanding of LLM's and how they are being used in labs and by power users (with 1000's of agents. at once). We have evidence of this practice from the OAI - hugging face hack: 1200 agents over 4 days worked on the hack (out of an unknown number running). NOTE: This is RSI, to pre - answer a benchmark one might call this cheating. Anthropic talked about their new source control system: their 5000 employees commit like 10x as many engineers. AI, at the model level, isnt getting massively better - the intelligence is fixed, and the gains have come from inference applications (Thinking tokens) that are really "more of the model". And fewer issues because of tool use (We stoped talking about cut off dates when it could search the web). What the Labs are doing, and the users are coming to understand is that "brute force" is the path forward on every task. The old saying that given enough monkeys on typewriter you get the works of shakespeare is what as at play. Only rather than monkeys AI is "intern" levels of intelligence. OAI / hugging face is that in action. 1000's of interns over 4 days can do a lot of work (there is more nuance here but the general idea stands). It also means that COST and TIME are tradable. 1 agent for 1000 days is the same as 1000 agents for one day. Do I need a perfect result, do I need the result quickly or can I just let an agent run (and maybe luck into a good enough solution along the way?) This also implies that cost per unit of intelligence matters... If 1500 dumber interns can get the job done in a day, and they cost half as much where are the dollars going to go. If more AI better, then COST is a factor - \> that could massively reduce (some) hardware cost It's a debt fueled boom that is giving companies that eb and flow massive Margins. Look at memory, who normal margins (historic) are low double digits and some times negative. Everyone borrowed money and rushed to buy to pay MASSIVE premiums on this gear. That premium is in the bank at MU, TSMC and NVIDA and everyone else is a bag holder.
Are they? I didn't know. I just said COST bc it was so far from AI, and not bc I see a huge upside for it in the immediate future just fyi
COST also green today. Think I prefer COST to WMT.
COST: "what recession?"
With the cost of capital rising, investors have been moving money from stocks relying on borrowing to stocks generating profits and cash. For the past 5 days, the following five sectors have been outperforming: * Consumer Staples: up 5.04% * Health Care: up 3.98% * Energy: up 3.64% * Materials: up 3.40% * Financials: up 2.16% Meanwhile, these 4 sectors are down: * Information Technology: down 5.24% * Consumer Discretionary: down 0.62% * Communication Services: down 0.44% * Industrials: down 0.11% Since the S&P 500 is currently less than 5% of all-time highs, the overall market's clearly very healthy. I'm continuing to like names like V, MA, KO, WMT, COST, TJX, JPM. They're not sexy, but they don't have to be....
WMT, COST, TJX are all on the move - great upward momentum after recent retail sell-off. Also, for anyone who missed V breaking out, MA appears to be making a similar move.
JENSEN: \- COREWEAVE'S STRENGTH IS IMPROVING EVERY DAY \- NVIDIA DOESN'T NEED TO BACKSTOP THEM \- COREWEAVE'S COST OF CAPITAL IS ACTUALLY DECREASING Market over reacting…time will tell but should stop some bleeding

Going back to covid days COST and WMT essentials will be up , crazy tech down af
COST hasn’t moved in at least a year. Completely stagnant.
What inflation? COST hotdog still $1.50 and bomb as hell. Weird that when I go in there to get on I also buy like $400 of surplus shit I didn’t plan on though.
AAPL, WMT, BRK-B, COST are up a smidge. Oh and this whole healthcare bucket here, that looks very GREEN
Never thought COST and KO would be propping the portfolio up…but here we are
Imagine thinking markets are efficient when stocks like AAPL and COST have P/E ratios of 39 and 47, respectively. Efficiently wrong.
shit guys, rates might go up a little, run to save haven stocks like COST and AAPL with 40+ PE!
WMT, COST, and TJX all have strong upward momentum out of troughs. Might be a great time to open a new swing trade on one or more of them, or add to an existing position.

Just navigated through a COST parking lot. Didn’t even need groceries. Just doing research for my dissertation. Getting a PhD in human stupidity.
COST split in 1993 and 2000.
I remember exiting COST last year around this price.. After holding on to it for so many years. I still check from time to time hoping it goes back down again to a more rational price but it never did.
I checked COST just now and their 1 year performance is 0.0%.. that might be the first time i've seen something like that.
35 stocks is basically running your own ETF without the management fee, trim the overlap first. You've got AVGO and NVDA in tech, plus PLTR and AMD which all ride similar hype waves so maybe pick two you actually trust long term. Also your consumer side is heavy with both COST and WMT just mirroring each other.
I WANTED BOLS FUK!!! BUT AT WHAT COST!!! :kekh: :kek: :kek:
HD, BA, most home builders, COST but it's already moved a good deal. I'm not jumping in bigly, just watching
Shout out to GOOG and COST for buoying me on a red day.
EVERY other time I've bought calls, or leaps(only ever leaps) I've held for less than 1 month. NVDA, MSFT were at 163 and 350 earlier this year. I bought 200 and 202 contracts at 215 and 500. In one month(almost exactly) it was at 210 and 480 and I sold. Just... took the winner. Same with shorts on WLMT and COST in Feb of '24. 3 weeks, sold. A couple other examples, but I don't do this much. But SKHY should hit 300 by the time those first set expire and I think it could go earlier. It's bigger than Micron, their price caps are off. They're selling almost 3X as much HBM4 to NVDA for Rubin and the COST is about 2.7X as much... and they are responsible for about 55-60% of the HBM4 share. PLUS, 2027 and 2028 being the largest memory shortages in history, unlike MU, THEY can still raise their price for peak pricing. I also think it's going to become less cyclical and it deserves a forward PE of at least 10-12. If it traded at JUST 12X Forward, it's 484. So I don't need some heroic move to get there. Also, I'm not using any leverage.
You keep mentioning fuel companies —it’s not about fuel companies— it’s about the outsized larger effect extremely high fuel prices (diesel, marine, heavy fuel oil) have against all other aspects of the economy as a whole. It’s the brick & mortar plus the consumers of everything (food, construction, manufacturing) that are suffering due to the high COST of fuel. The point is that there is indeed a ceiling to what consumers &/or businesses can either swallow or pass along due to the high cost of fuel. Margins and pocketbooks can only be squeezed so much before it gets ugggs
Generalizing. But this week BA, CASY, COST, AMZN of course. Amazon ticking me off. Third day it gave up the gains by close
Going to COST on Friday afternoon is unironically worse than an MSTR rally.
COST's multiple has been completely detached from fundamentals for years now, it's basically a religion at this point. People pay up for the membership model and the consistency but 45x is just hoping the growth story never ends I still think WMT is a better value play here even with the slowdown, they're actually trying to figure out e-commerce while COST seems allergic to the internet
Winners: • RKLB $115 Call 5/15 — +$2,680 • RKLB $93 Call 5/8 — +$9,350 • COST $1,000 Call 5/8 — at least +$13,500 (one buy row was cut off) • COST $1,060 Put 5/22 — +$10,490 • TSLA $450 Call 5/13 — +$3,922 • HOOD $89 Call 5/29 — +$12,800 • SNDK $1,235 Call 8/7 — about +$8,500 (buy figure was blurry) • COST $960 Call 8/7 — +$6,500 • NVDA $232.5 Call 9/4 — +$2,970 • COST $925 Call 9/18 — +$400 • AAPL $327.5 Call 9/11 — +$5,830 • SNDK $1,800 Call 9/25 — +$1,600 • SNDK $1,730 Call 9/18 — +$1,940 • NVDA $212.5 Put 9/18 — +$4,782 • NVDA $215 Put 9/18 — +$1,000 Losers: • NVDA $222.5 Call 8/5 — -$6,550 • SNDK $1,685 Put 9/11 — -$1,688 Couldn't nail down: SNDK $1,450 Put 5/8 (buy only, no sell shown), COST $1,050 Call 6/12 (sell was canceled), COST $955 Call 8/7 (sell row cut off), and a MRNA swing from Sep 21–22 where the account was up $14,638.26 that day but no per-trade fills were shown. The known trades net out to roughly +$78k, which is in the ballpark of the author's stated YTD realized P/L of +$94,532 — the gap is covered by the trades with cut-off or missing rows. His best single hit was the COST $1,000 Call at +$13,500, and the two losses are small next to the wins.
Made $600 before reverse split. Thought it had good product at the start but didn’t like it later. Haven’t noticed if COST still sells it.
Yes but have to be careful, and it is very rough on the margin as it takes the full brunt of the short put. Did it recently with COST - I had a 18SEP26 890/920 put spread and sold the long put when COST took a dive pre-earnings. Rolled the short put out profitably with the inflated pre earnings IV out to November at 910 strike.
THANK YOU MR PRESIDENT FOR BRINGING BACK SUCH GREAT INDUSTRIES ESPECIALLY GM [THEY WOULD NEVER COST THE GOVERNMENT MONEY](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Motors_Chapter_11_reorganization) NOR WOULD [STELLANTIS](https://subsidytracker.goodjobsfirst.org/parent/stellantis) OR EVEN [FORD](https://www.factcheck.org/2011/09/ford-motor-co-does-u-turn-on-bailouts/) Don’t get me wrong here, I wouldn’t consider myself to be a commie, but the fact that “Capitalism breeds innovation” is widely believed, I’m not exactly sure how the most capitalist president since Reagan openly pushing us from one of the only automotive fields *actually doing any innovation right now* is compatible with reality.
FAKE PRESIDENT SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED IN THE WHITE HOUSE!!! IT HAS GONE ON FAR TOO LONG, AT A TREMENDOUS COST TO OUR CONTRY. American Public
There's nothing refreshing about these types of trades. It's the usual wsb degeneracy lol. Did you check his transaction history? They're almost entirely 0 or 1 DTEs with a couple weeklies throws in. We can't see the first order but he went in with at least 30% of his account with COST 1 DTE calls. He then risked half of his account on 0 DTE RKLB calls and doubled it. He then put 12k down on 0 DTE SNDK puts and it looks like he let it go to 0 since there's no sell order. You can see where this happened on the pnl graph. It's the drop after the first two peaks right above 3M. It doesn't look so bad zoomed out because he grew the account to 90k, but at the time this looks like a 50% drawdown on a single play.
Those are all good. F is approaching a buy, HD, LEN, WHR (all housing related if we get a catalyst). Yeah COST for sure, WMT, AMZN... I got 50 easily that are probably at a bottom. It's all Iran BS. Unless that gets resolved nothing is happening. Old story here, obvious one. I have no insight on that situation
I bought few hundred shares of RCL, maybe I'll grab WMT, COST and some DG, what you buying old timer?
collected easy 5% of port from COST earnings, ez $
yea earned 5k from short COST 907.5p
earnings represents uncertainty, maybe they release great news and huge buyers step in. maybe they release terrible news and there's a huge selloff. IV increases as people position around it/algo traders setup to play earnnigs all join etc. selling strangle on a weekly right before is just known as "shorting volatility". in an ideal setup, you play sell both sides and buy both sides a little further OTM than you sold. right after earnings is over the uncertainty is gone. IV crush makes everything not right ATM worthless, \*especially\* on thursday after-close earnings like COST was. COST was basically the perfect setup for this, megacap/boring retail/1dte long as the price doesn't move past either end of your strangle you should be able to close each side for 90%+ gain easy (could grab 100% if you carry through expiration...but why take the risk?). If PA blows past either before market opens after earnigns, then 1 side should cover the other side failing (again, in an ideal setup). personally, I do on every earnings for 10b+ mkcp company that has weeklies available. though I probably won't do this with MU cause being AI/tech shit that will probably be \*much\* more volatile than COST.
told you $COST was gonna make some people rich
Never doubt COST. That $1.50 hot dog always gonna be going strong.
Just look at COST. Incredible.

$COST is a buy. It is basically "middle class Sam's Club" and it is inevitably going to go up

this has been a great week for me, playing earnings mostly. up about 15% of port so far. after BB and COST tomorrow should be around 20-25%
STOP DOING WHAT YOU'RE DOING AUTOMATE YOUR TRADING, DOLLAR COST AVERAGE/BOGLEHEAD IT And seriously get some help like therapy. Most of the people making huge bets and losing 50k or 100k are doing so because they have multimillion networths. Or have parents or a spouse to fall back on.
Is anyone playing COST earnings tmr?

thanks $COST you have paid for my new rolex
COST earnings tomorrow, expected to exceed all predicitons
Anybody playing COST earnings tomorrow? I'm tempted to buy calls.
oligopolies that are recession proof command a premium because those earnings are essentially forever and will never be threatened just look at COST, WMT, WM P/E’s for example
COST looking like a real easy earnings to sell
I have a COST put to feel something.
